Our Furry Visitor

The other day Devin woke me up and told me that there was a tarantula on our porch. Apparently he discovered it when he went outside to get the newspaper. Yuck! Our boys were quite happy with the discovery and if I was half the mom that my mama is, I would have caught it in a jar for my boys. I'm just not quite there, yet. :) Our poor visitor must have had some trauma in its life before cause it only had 7 legs. It stayed on our front porch, scaring our visitors, all day and then left sometime in the middle of the next night. Oh the joys of living in the desert! :)


Success

Well, we went to the baseball game last Monday and had a great time! It was surprisingly a lot better on the right day. :) Here are a few pics from the night:

The "real" beginning-of-the-game picture
The boys had a great time!

This pic was taken right before the game started. You might think that we still went on the wrong day cause there's nobody else around. That's the beauty of a minor league game! :) It did fill in a little as the game went on.

The boys all brought baseball hats, cause that's just what you do at baseball games. :)

I was going to take a picture of me and Ethan and he randomly kissed my cheek right was I was taking it. I thought it was so funny and cute!


The boys were beyond excited to get a picture with the "Tucson Toro."

There was a few big blow-up things for the kids to play on, which they loved. I thought Kevin was funny on this cause he just layed completely on his back the whole time. I let Dallin take Ethan on it, against my better judgment. I got really nervous because they climbed up....

and then Ethan looked down...

and then did this...
I was so afraid I was going to have to climb up there and get him down, but he finally just turned around and went down on his belly. :) Whew!

We had a great time and can't wait till next year when we can go again!
