Out to the Ball Game...

This is something my Dad has been talking about for a while...taking just his girls to a Twins game. Friday night we were actually all free (well, kind of but I'll explain that) so we went to the game. We had SO MUCH FUN. I actually said to Jess at one point "I hope Dad is having as much fun as we are." because we really did have that much fun.

Because my Dad had all girls, we have gotten him to do things he doesn't exactly want to do sometimes....case in point, this picture! But it is so funny. Can you pick him out?

Dad thought it would be fun to make a sign (of course we made Jess do it), so here while he was getting a hot dog, Jess and Kas tried to talk to the camera guy. Key word - tried. They got majorly blown off.

And when he got back with his hot dog, it was more like a dachshund. It was the BIGGEST hot dog ever. This picture does not do it justice since you can't see the three pound layer of condiments on there!

Here we are with our sign. Bert wasn't even there, but we had no idea...we held up that sign with no shame.

This last picture is to show HOW LONG we stayed at the game. It was 16 innings long. For me, Miss Preggo, that meant walking all the way up and down those stairs 4 times to go to the bathroom! It was 12:16 during this picture, I think it was 12:20 by the time the game was over. Kara had to leave at 9:30 to go to work (graveyard shift - hence the ALMOST free night) and laughed when she was an hour into her shift before we even left the game!

After the game, we had planned to drive back to the farm to stay out there since the hubbies and kiddos would be there in the morning anyway. Since it was so late (and the getting lost part on the way home didn't help...or the getting pulled over) we decided to stop in and eat at Canterbury since Kip was working. She was excited we came, and by the time we got to Jess' house at 2:30, we were WIPED OUT. Needless to say we didn't quite make it to the farm. But it truly was one of the most fun nights I've had in a long time.

Thanks, Dad!!
