Thursday night was Championships for Jeff’s softball team; Clare had yet to attend one of his games so we figured we should go. We ran a few quick errands after Karen’s and then headed to the field, Jeff wasn’t there yet since he forgot his shoes and had to go home ‘real quick’ to get them. Once he did arrive Clare gave him a big hug, she loves seeing her Dada after a long day.
Dada, you want a snack?
Fortunately there was a little bit of shade for us to put our blanket down and have a snack. Clare enjoys playing with the box, and grabs handfuls of cookies out; luckily she was looking the other way so I could take the bag out in an effort to save the teddies from the dirt.
Clare had fun walking up and down the hill behind Dada’s dugout; it was pretty steep for her little legs. She continued walking up and down, despite falling a few times. When she did fall she wasn’t happy, she did not like the dirt!
Mama, yuck!
The first game was scheduled to start at 6:15pm, but the other team only had 7 people show up (you need 8 to play), so after a short 1st inning the game was called and team Older and Slower was declared the winner. Both teams ended up just playing a scrimmage, Older and Slower had to play again at 7:15, so why not. Despite their big win, Clare and I packed up and headed for home, she was pretty tired and we had yet to get dinner.
On our way home we stopped for a quick bite at Qdoba, Clare loves guacamole, so Mexican was a safe bet for dinner.
Clare enjoyed watching them play, although I think she did more walking around and snack eating than actual watching. I hope that next year we’ll make it to a few more games, it’s hard to make it when they are all the way across town and after her bedtime.
