Root, Root, Root For the Mariners!

It seems like a trip to Seattle would not be complete without a Mariner's game! We smartly got a sitter for Camille and went with almost the whole family up to the game. Unfortunately, the game did not go well for the M's, who lost, but as my niece Katie said, "At least it didn't take them very long to lose."

The weather was great, and the atmosphere even better. A baseball game really is a great American past time, and you can FEEL it in the air when you are there.

 The girls were SO excited to get to stay up late and go to a baseball game- even though they didn't really know what it was.

Once there, they LOVED that they got lots of treats. Grandpa really likes spoiling his grandchildren. Audra is hugging the cotton candy above. Below Claire is devouring the cotton candy:

 Audra is in Heaven- peanuts in her right hand, ice-cream Dibs in her left (my girls aren't used to that much junk food- both girls threw up at night from all of it. They learned a good lesson- it's OK to splurge sometimes, but you will pay for it):

 By 9:15 Claire was ready for bed:
 And so was Grandpa:
 With Matt's family:
 The outcome wasn't great, but it was still a fun night:
Go M's!
