Brewers Game

Evan and daddy traveled to DC today to see the Nationals host the Brewers.  Evan was thrilled for the road trip and to see a "big" baseball game with daddy! 

In preparation for the big trip, Ev practiced his throwing (in the house) and recited the racing sausages.  He also treated us to a rendition of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," as sung from the kitchen floor.  (Where else?) 


They got there in time for batting practice, and sat right down front.  The bullpen catcher came out to hand Evan a ball - and a real game ball at that, not a practice ball! 

They had great seats, ate yummy stadium hotdogs, and even played in the kids zone (where I'm told Evan was a better batter than the 6year old behind him in line!).  They could have stayed for the double header, but since the first game blew right through nap time, it was a more wise decision to head home for a nice long 3 hour car ride nap.  Ev held tightly to his ball the whole way, and took it to bed with him that night.  What a happy little guy.
