Take Me Out to the Ballgame!!!

Because we in the Hansen house obviously don't get in enough baseball we decided to go to the Bees' game on Saturday night. Actually Richard and Vicki had the whole suite for the night and were nice enough to invite us along. Auntie Sam, Lisa, Jalon, Mark, and Molly also were able to go. The boys were thrilled when we surprised them with the fact we were going

The weather appeared as if it wasn't going to cooperate. Xander had a baseball game earlier in the day. It was so cold and it started to rain. Thankfully the weather cleared up just in time for the game. There was even a little blue sky for all of us spectators. The field was very empty. I guess few were in the mood to brave the cold weather. Being in a suite we were well protected from the elements. Vicki and Richard had the suite stocked with all sorts of goodies and drinks. It was "sweet"! So that last joke was probably more funny in my head. The boys also went and got some giant hotdogs with all sorts of messy toppings.

To be honest I didn't watch much of the game. I was busy playing with my iPhone taking and uploading pictures. I did get to see some awesome plays and a bat breaking. That is always cool. No bat breaking in little league. I would say the highlights of the night were when Bumble, the team mascot, came into the suite and let us take a ton of pictures. Vicki even snuck in a little smooch. Watch out Richard... that bee is a ladies man. Xander was so excited. That was all he had talked about was seeing Bumble. After the game (the Bee's won) Brian and Mark took all the boys down to the field where they got to run the bases. Jalon was very serious about making it all the way around. Then they got to meet Bumble again and get autographs.

Auntie Sam recently won a whole Wii system with all sorts of goodies at a work drawing. That night she gave the boys Mario Kart and an extra wheel from her winnings. They were thrilled and so thankful to say the least. We went immediately home where they proceeded to play. Brian and I even teamed up over the Wii internet and played against Mark and Molly. Brian and I have a little practice to do before the rematch. But we will be victorious!!!

Here are the rest of the pics and videos from the night of fun.
