The Bees




Ethan's fascination with the Bees Baseball started in April when his Aunt Desi went to a baseball game with some friends. Thinking she was a huge fan, he would call her first thing in the morning the day after each game and tell her if the bees won and the score of the game. Because of his obsession with the Bees we decided it would be fun to take him to some games.


Last night we went to the Bees Baseball game with Grandpa Monson, Dave and Natalie's family and our friends Tim and Lithia and their family. The kids had a really fun time eating concessions, watching the game, and playing at the playground. They even got to meet "Bumble" the team mascot and have their hands autographed! It was an awesome game. The Bees ended up winning 12-1 and there was even a grand slam home run.

Here is Grandpa, Taylor, and Ethan at the game. Taylor brought his baseball mitt hoping to catch a baseball and Ethan begged for a baseball bat the whole game!






Emma with Sara getting their hands signed by Bumble. This was the highlight of the evening for Emma. When we walked into the stadium the first thing that Emma wanted to do was see the bee.

Here is Eliza watching the game with mom. She has done amazingly well at the games thank to the Heumann children for taking her on walks!



Finally proof that we were really at the game. . . our family picture with the baseball diamond as the backdrop!

That's too funny that he'd call and tell her if they won or not. It sounds like Ethan!

I love that he is so excited about local sports. When he gets a little older you will have to get a second job just to support his sports habits

Those pics are so cute! Especially the picture of Emma admiring the bee-man, and the picture of Lize looking so alert!

Your family is so cute! I can't believe how fast they all grow up! I'm glad Micah just went out and bought you that book. It's really hard to wait that long for a book cause everyone who has read it could spoil it for you!

I can't believe how adorable your kids are. They are getting so big. I need to call you sometime soon. It's so much fun to look at your blog.
