Detroit Tigers Game











We went to a Detroit Tigers vs. Chicago White Sox game on a Sunday with Ali, Kate, Uncle Marc, Aunt Missy and Uncle Allen. Sunday's are Family Days at Comerica Park so they had free facepainting, free carousel and ferris wheel rides and the kids can run the bases after the game. So, in the 95 degree heat we sat in the sun in the upper deck but it was a really good view of the ballpark from our seats....it was just HOT!! Katie had gotten sick the night before and we were worried she wouldn't make it the whole game especially in that heat but she was a trooper! We kept taking breaks and went to sit in the shade and grab something to drink or eat. With all the getting up and walking around we actually were lucky enough to be sitting and watching at the best part of the game where the Tigers came back from being down 3-0 and took the lead 3-4. We had to go in line during the 8th inning for the girls to be able to run the bases so we watched the rest of the game on the TV's and the Tigers held onto their lead and won the game...very exciting and fun!! We all got to go on the field and watch the girls run the bases which was so cool! We agreed that we have to do this every year, it was a lot of fun. Ali and Kate ended up staying the rest of the week with grandma and grandpa and had a blast. Mike and I brought Lauren home and were able to spend some one on one time with her during the week which was great. It brought us back to when we only had Ali and remembering what it was like with just one kid=)
