Oakland A's vs New York Yankee's!!!

 We were at the Oakland Coliseum last night when Oakland BEAT the Yankee's 4-3!! We've been wanting to take the kid's to a ballgame for awhile since they've never been, and it's been ages since we've gone too.  They LOVED it.  They loved the FOOD, the excitement, the singing of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" at the 7th inning stretch, they giggled at the kissing cam, and Ma-lak cheered the loudest of all.

 The score board when we got there - we were a little late....  Boo for city traffic, we missed the National Anthem.  But the good news is that we were ahead!  And when I say "we".... Hmmm, who did we root for?!?! Well, we are all wearing A's garb, but the Yankee's and the A's happen to be Daryle's two favorite teams....  So much to the amusement of the New Yorker's sitting  in front of us, Daryle cheered pretty much all the time.  And he came back from getting us hotdogs so he could watch Derek Jeter hit. 

 #2 - Derek Jeter!  He got the biggest boos of all every time he came up to bat.  Except for maybe Alex Rodriguez.


 Ma-lak was beside himself with excitement.  He was so hoping to catch a foul ball...  Maybe next time!


 Yummy hotdogs and brats!  And popcorn and cotton candy..... The cheeseburgers were amazing.



 Ni'ke managed to work her way into nearly all the pictures!!!!

 It got cooler as the sun went down and Rea wanted to snuggle!  Of course I didn't mind that at all.  And yes, they were asleep before we got out of the parking lot......  :-)
