Take Me Out to the Ballgame...

This is actually one of Allie's favorite songs. One of the last things we did while Blake was here was to go to a Ranger game. Justin was taking off work early to head to Arlington and arrived home with a ball cap for Blake and a Ranger shirt for me. He can no longer complain to me when I have to buy clothes for a certain event when he does the same thing! Anyway, we were excited and the trip passed very quickly. We checked into a hotel (since we were leaving the next morning to meet my parents and pass off Blake) and then headed to Boston's to eat before the game. It has been extremely hot but I wasn't too worried because it had been cooling off more in the evening with a nice breeze. Well, was I wrong!! I love baseball, it is my favorite sport to watch but this is NOT the way to watch a game! It was about 100 degrees, high humidity, and NO breeze sitting in the stands. I felt like my skin was melting off with each inning. Plus it hardly cooled off. The temperature when the game ended was around 94. It was a good game because the Rangers won but geez I couldn't enjoy it because of the sauna like conditions!
we took a picture of them...

and they took one of us

heading to the ball park








notice poor Allie's red face and wet hair

Sarah and Allie


finally time to sing!

Later Allie changed the words to sing, "Take me out to the Rangers..." We will definately go back but only after the weather changes!

Will loves the song as well. They learned it at school this year and it was all we heard for awhile. Maybe they can do a duet! On season when will played tball he was a Texas Ranger and he stil wears the jersey some. Great pictures.

Blaine enjoyed having Blake in town too!! It sure looks like it ways way too hot. Sorry we missed it (not really) :-)
