Our
first baseball game together. This was a treat... We got
to go with our friend William, who was in town to take the Washington bar
exam. We got some tickets from a nice guy who was selling them from my work.
They were good seats. We were up really high, so I made sure Chloe knew
the rules on moving around. we also talked about other people and how to
be "courteous" (a new word). She did a great job. She sat in between
us. We even went for a little walk around. She was tired after the 5th inning,
but I could see why, The Mariners only lost 12-1 against the Chicago White
Sox!!! What do you expect? I read that they came back and clobbered them
the next day by the same amount. We seemed to make it to the 7th inning
stretch. Chloe seemed to like the songs when the batters came to bat. She
seemed to think that the music meant that it was "over" and so
she would turn to me and say, "Daddy, is it over?" -- She really
had no idea what was going on, but she did get the concept that the guys
were trying to hit the ball. I just had fun taking pictures of her in the
light. As we beat the crowds going out, we posed for a quick picture in
front of the Safeco Field sign.. Not bad for a first time ball game. I hope
we can experience many more.... ...
