ERIE SEAWOLVES







What is summer without a little baseball?
Spur of the moment we went to a game one night to support our local Erie Seawolves.
The boys loved it.
Lew watched the balls flying through the sky and of course climbed around while playing with his Mcqueen.
Thomas in the full spirit of baseball dressed up as "squints" his favorite Sandlot character.  The nerdy yet girl crazy one.  YIKES!  He thought it was pretty cool that the Seawolves kept "winning" and worked on being brave enough to pump his fist with the crowd every time they scored.  He took his mitt and waited somewhat patiently for a ball to come just to him so he could catch it. 
Daniel had a plan for us just in case one of the balls did come our way.  It never did. 
We made sure to have the real experience and we got cotton candy and hotdogs.
There was hardly anybody there and it randomly was bring your dog night.  So we laughed at all the dogs at the game dressed up to support the pirates.  Thomas still talks about a magic trick we watched during one of the innings.  Oh to be little again.
We made it to the 7th inning when it was clear that it was bedtime and we called it a successful outing and headed home before we had any meltdowns. 
It was perfect.  We are now proud supporters of Seawolves.
