Petco Premiere


We took the kids to thier first Padres game today at Petco Park. (I cheated and lifted the picture as we didn't bring the camera.) It was a good time. Cotton Candy, some close flys, and the Padres won 8-5, holding on to the division lead.

Katie's favorite part: "When they make the scores and then the fireworks."

Andy's favorite part: "Digging in the sand with my friends"

To Andy's note, we sat in an interesting field-level bleacher area that was designed for kids, with a giant sandy area that allowed the kids to get right up to the fence. Hard to see the batter from out there, but you do get a few spectacular outfield catch close-ups -- such as when Giles slammed into the fence a few feet from the kids while going for a long fly.
