Take Me Out To The Ball Game

 Last week we supported Seattle sports teams and went to a Seattle Storm (WNBA) game and a Mariners game. I loved every minute of both of them! 

The Covington Library had a summer reading program and Paige completed it for the summer and for her reward she got FREE tickets for all of us to the Storm game. 
 Our half time entertainment.
 I love watching the progression of Paige getting more and more into the game. At first it was just watching the mascot and seeing all the funny things he was doing. Then she got into the clapping and getting the rhythm down for the different claps. And by the end she was yelling defense when everyone else was. It was cute and fun to watch!
 And they even won!
 A beautiful night with an amazing view of the space needle before we headed home.
 Then last weekend we went to a Mariners game with Nate's parents. Paige set out her Mariners outfit the night before because she was so excited to go. She makes one cute Mariners fan!
 Nate's disappointed look since in the first inning the other team got like 3 or 4 home runs.
 After a few innings Paige got the one thing we promised to get at the game- cotton candy.
 Then Paige and I went to the Kid's Corner. There was hardly any kids there and Paige got to show off her baseball skills. 
First she ran to a base. She is pretty speedy and has good form for such a little girl.
 Then she got to practice her swing.
 Look at that face. She really wanted to hit the ball with some power.
 Then she practiced her pitching. She needs a little work but she had fun.
 Papa brought some binoculars and Paige loved them. She loved looking at the Space Needle, the Ferris Wheel, and then she started watching the baseball game through them and was so excited when she saw someone hit the ball. It was a great idea to have them!
Even though the Mariners lost it was a beautiful evening and the view was amazing!
