Fun at the fields

The boys spent a good bit of time at the Gilman fields last year checking out the action.  With their increased mobility, we decided that their debut would be at the Closing Ceremonies.  There is no guarantee if you tell them "no" that they will listen and it was more of a safety concern than anything else.  We planned to leave prior to the All Star games starting so they wouldn't be tempted.

Some pics from our trip to the fields.

Definitely eager to get in the game.

Wheels.

The boys were fascinated by the wheels and the storage shed that they were calling the "Big Red Barn" even though they are fully aware that it is blue not red.
