This past week...

I am so sad that this was our last full week of summer! I have no idea where it all went but I know we enjoyed so much of it together. This past week we lived it up and stayed up late and enjoyed the Connie Mack World Series. For years we put our names in to draw for tickets to have as our own. I go to the rec center twice a week for Zumba and would put my name in four times each time I went since April, add that all up and it was over 50 times I put in the lottery. Mitch went down there one time for some baseball business and while he was there put each of our kids' names in once. Guess who won the lottery when they drew names a few weeks ago?? Miss Carly Jane! Our girl who loves baseball. I thought it was so neat that her name was drawn. She loves to go to Caleb's baseball games and to Connie Mack season games when we would go, so it was only fitting that she should have won. We got four tickets and got some right behind home plate!  We enjoyed them all week long as we watched the games.  They are ours every year as long as we pay the fee which surprisingly isnt very much. So happy!  The Southern California Renegrades beat the returning champions Midland Redskins in the championship game.

 We live so close to the fields we would walk down each night to watch the games. This picture creeps me out, my girls look like little gremlins.


Caleb got the opportunity to be a ball boy for the series and got in to each game for free and got free food when we was working the games. He met some cool baseball players and loved every minute of it.

 The girls rode the float for the dance studio on the first day of the series. They looked so cute in their recital costumes as they rode down main street.


The County fair was also this past week, so we took the kids out twice since Mitch's work gives us free passes, meal tickets and ride tickets. Carly loved the animals, the pigs and bunnies were her favorites. She kept sneaking her little hands through the cages to pet the bunnies. Here she is picking her nose next to the pigs. Cute little piggy:)


Brynley and Carly wanted to ride the ponies. They were both so cute to watch and wave to.


    


Inside one of the buildings there were alot of vendors and some cool activites for the kids to do.
 
                                       Mitch and Caleb were hogging the baseball throw radar.


Carly was loving the foam blocks. She was making some cool buildings.

The kid's love thw carnival side of the fair. Their favorite ride is the fun slide.


I crack up when I look at this picture! Caleb looks terrified, Mitch looks sick and Aubrie is just her happy little self.

All in all fun was had by us all. Now we have to wait for another year to go again.
