For it's Root, Root, Root for the Mar-i-ners... If they don't win, it's a shame?!

When I was little, I remember I loved it when my parents took me to the Kingdome to see the M's. I can even sing the commercial for you sometime if you want an added flashback:) Didn't seem to matter if they won or lost or if we observed from the outfield bleachers?! My boys...not so much (though I'm sad to admit) & we have sweet seats thanks to my dad now! We have to pace them with concessions & trip to centerfield playground for them to even humor me, but they did for 3rd time last night & I finally remembered the camera:)Thank goodness the monsoon subsided (seriously @ the end of May? no doubt will cont for Mem Day weekend eh?) so we could trek to the ballpark from our free parking spot; however, the laps we took to find it made it so we were 10 min too late for Griffey t-shirt giveaway-ugh! No worries, cuz I'm not ashamed to say we took one that we found in the aisle after the game & we have connections that might enable us to have a couple more after the fact--He didn't get a cool walk-off home run tonight either, but gotta love him!
I regret to inform you that I'm not that down with rest o' roster this season, but hey!
T'was sheer joy for the rest of the innings to hear Dane's complaints re: everything under the retractable roof and Cole's whines that he hadn't had enough to eat/drink (never mind his earlier treats @ McD's c/o Aunt Amy?!) not to mention that Luke prob had no business being there post-fever, but got to be along for the ride bez binkie 'cuz I left in car...s'pose he has to break the habit soon anyway eh? Just keepin' it real re: these type of events once combined with motherhood! Ahh the good ole' days when we'd go early enough to get autographs during BP, leisurely watch every pitch usually ending in victory & stay late enough to watch players drive out?!
Documenting Luke's first season & Cole's last in the playground, latter due to height restrictions...Luke was sent home early with Nurse Grandma Neecy from childcare on Fri in this cute outfit after vomiting 3x (random, but I had to throw it in the post:), so shouldn't have been surprised that he wasn't 100%-But he had fun running in circles & went down slide once...Older boys were thrilled that they got 2 visits in one game since we got there with half hour to spare prior to first pitch (yes, you read that right & should be impressed for those who know me:)
Similar to the Disney characters, Huey loves the Moose from afar & will point him out every game on the visiting team's dugout, but doesn't want anything to do with him up close & personal incl just the life-size picture @ playground:/
Thought it was funny that Cole asked me en route (only boy still awake in the back seat, mind you) how I always knew the way home & never got lost?! Glad I can still impress him with my mad navigation skills...Told him half of it was just reading signs & other came from going on same roads for 17 yrs:) Another funny comment he made to Chris other day was in comparison to animals, "people can only run fast & far when they've had a 5-hr energy drink?!" At least he pays attn to commercials during sporting events eh?
