Jackson has started showing an interest in the Braves recently. We've thought about taking them to a game for a while now but didn't know if they were old enough to sit through the entire game. We finally decided they probably could and went for it. They have some cheaper seats for families on Sunday afternoons, so we picked a date and decided to go yesterday. Michael's parents came with us.
The weather however, didn't want to cooperate with us. It started out as just very cloudy but soon the clouds started dripping on us. It started raining towards the beginning of the game and we moved up to the top under the overhang. This lasted a little while and then it stopped. So, we moved back down to our normal seats. Then it started again and didn't let up this time. Up we went again. Even though we were under the cover, the wind would blow the rain at us and we were still getting wet. They delayed the game for about an hour and a half. The kids were bored (they were a little bored even before the rain delay) but we had to wait on the rain to let up a little bit before we made the long hike out to our cars. We finally made it out and were all pretty soaked. Especially Michael and Dawson, who didn't have any kind of umbrella to use.
They had fun at the beginning though and I managed to get some cute pictures before the rain started. Jackson wasn't feeling the camera again - imagine that.
Jackson loved seeing Homer. He wanted to watch him the whole game!
He also loved watching people pitch and hit the ball in these little cages before the game.
They both liked the cow!

And of course the rain delay...
It'll probably be awhile before we try that again...hopefully on a sunnier day!
