Matt just loves his birthday. He counts down the days and is already talking about things we can do for next year! But I told him this year that we weren't going to have anymore big parties. We decided he could take a few friends to the Astros game so that's what we did last Saturday. It seems like 8/31 was so long ago but Matt was happy to have another day to celebrate...Matt!
We had lunch and cupcakes at the house before heading down for the game. Matt was very excited that Caden, Cole, Micah and Evan could join us. And Marlie loved being with all the boys!
The boys enjoyed the first few innings. They cheered loudly for Scott Moore and he looked back and waved at the boys. He later hit a home run and they went crazy. They cheered random things like "Pirates eat pizza" and "Pirates are nerds". A quick reminder that they are only 7! I'm not sure at times if they were cheering or heckling but they were having fun.
At some point the fun of the game wore off so I quickly got out the fun dip...what kid doesn't love fun dip and it keeps them focused for awhile. But then it was off to the play area which they loved WAY more than watching the game!
They got to race this large moving figure from 3rd base to home and then they got to swing at shooting water.
Back to the game and a few more shots of sugar, then it was time for the kids to run the bases. The boys ran so fast that I couldn't get a good shot.
Overall it was a great day. Next year I might just take the boys to the playground and that will likely work for them! Happy Birthday Matt! We love you!
