Connor's 1st Baseball Game!

Last night we took Connor to his first baseball game. Michael had tickets from work, and although it was a night game and way past Connor's bedtime, we ventured to the River Cats game. We thought we might only stay an hour or two, depending on how Connor was feeling. Turns out- Connor is a big baseball fan just like Daddy. He loved it and we stayed the whole time, including an extra inning and for the fireworks show. It was a great night! Michael started teaching Connor about the game of baseball and Connor kept his eye on Dinger, the mascot for most of the game. Connor made friends with all of the people sitting near us and we got many comments from strangers about what a sweet and kind boy he is. Michael and I really enjoyed experiencing a baseball game with Connor. We know we'll spend many more moments enjoying the game with our beautiful son!

What a great night that must have been. I remember my first ball game. Connor is a star, and will always be one! Love, Poppy

Ah, I remember taking mini-Michael to his first ball games (Modesto A's). What great memories and tradition. He will be a big fan of baseball just like the the rest of us. And maybe even a great player, although it doesn't matter because you just love it all - the game, the anticipation, the smell of a leather mitt, the smell of a stadium 'dog, holding your kid in your lap as you explain the game to him.....you can't make this kind of great stuff up. Love it and love you.

I have always loved baseball. I think it is because of all the games I went to with my dad.

Now we have Connor to go with and to keep enjoying the great American pastime.

Lots of Love!
