Baseball Game

Friday night, we went to see a baseball game. It was so much fun! Hudson had a little too much excitement and was pretty fried by the 8th inning, but thankfully I did get him to sleep so he wasn't miserable for the post-game activities.
After the game, the Buffalo Philharmonic and Bob McGrath (the guy from Sesame Street with the *incredible* voice) came out and played and sang for us. It was wonderful!
They played a very patriotic song near the end. Bob narrated it, and asked each of the Armed Forces to stand up for a minute during their anthem in the medley of American patriotic music. It was so powerful, and I was thrilled at the reception each group got.
They ended with the end of the 1812 overture and Stars and Stripes Forever, and the fireworks began!
Unfortunately, I didn't bring my tripod to the game (you should have seen everything we *did* bring!) so none of the fireworks pictures turned out. But here are a few from during the game:
You can tell how often we drink pop, by the fact that I took pictures of both girls enjoying theirs!


Jasmine had her first taste of cotton candy. She liked it; she said "it's not spicy!" That means "two thumbs up" in Jasminese!
