Boys Day Out!

Peter is a Mariner's fan.  Understatement of the year. So one time a year, when the Mariners make the trip to Baltimore, Peter will be in the stands at Camden Yards  with his Mariner's jersey on with at least one family member.  This year given that it was a night game starting at 7:05, Peter had Stephen join him since he is the "big brother."  This was a special time for the two of them, sharing in the team Daddy loves with the sport his eldest son loves (Stephen wants to be a pitcher when he grows up.)  It was also special because Ken Griffey Jr. returned to the Mariner's lineup this season, which will probably be his last, and is one of Peter's favorite players besides Itchero Suzuki. A good report came home to Mom and Scott- both in bed and asleep when the boys returned- that the Mariner's won the game 4-1 over the Orioles. Stephen loved the time alone with his dad, watching the game, sharing pretzels, peanuts, hot dogs, and sodas. If it was not a yearly tradition before, I believe we have one now... Only next time hopefully we will all be able to go!
