Yesterday, on the freakishly hottest day of the year so far, we headed out for a little family fun at the local (well, not too far) minor league baseball park. Dylan participated in a literacy program at school last month. He read enough books to receive a free ticket to the game, and also march in a pre-game parade. We'd never been to this stadium before, and it was pleasantly small, kid-friendly and full of other kid activities for the Restless One. We splurged on the $9 seats and were four rows from the field. However, had I known how ass-cooking hot it was going to be, I'd have bought the cheap seats in the shade. We ended up moving up to those seats anyway, because our boys befriended two other little boys, and the four of them jabbered and giggled and pretty much disregarded the fact that baseball was even being played. We left early since we were all melting, thirsty (have you ever noticed all snacks sold at sporting events are chock full of salt and designed to make you buy more $4 waters?), and Logan was in desperate need of a car nap. Still, the school parade was very cute and Dylan's favorite part of the game was the musical interludes between the plays.
