take me out to the ball game

Yesterday afternoon we had the pleasure of taking in a game at Flour Field between the Greenville Drive and the Charleston Riverdogs. It was a hot day --89 degrees-- and we were very grateful for our shady seats!

We had a great view of the field from behind home plate, where RM could imitate the pitcher's "Swish!" with his arm and watch the ball go "CRACK!"

Daddy had seen Smoltz pitch as a kid, and now RM has experienced the same thing! He was extremely attentive during the game.

The stadium at Flour Field had a record attendance come out to see this future hall of famer pitch!

Things were going swimmingly until we realized an allergic reaction was starting.

It's all fun and games until someone gets peanut dust in their eye.

Don't worry - he's back to his full Mr. Personality self today.

Poor kid-that looks like it hurts--does that happen when he is even around peanuts?

Can't wait for Bobby and him to enjoy the games--makes me so excited to take him!

Love the shades. Would they help keep that dreadful peanut dust out of his eyes, I wonder?
