Commerce Day at the K

was a HOT one but a FUN one.  We met Lauren's little friend, Killian, and his parents at the game.  Mark and Killian's parents work for Commerce Bank at the downtown location, so we were all able to go to the game together today.  It included lunch under a huge tent, with a visit from Slugger, and then tickets to the game. 

Lauren and Killian had a blast in the Kids Zone.  They played in the water before we went to our seats and got a little wet.  When we hit the playground a second time they both ended up soaked, Lauren more than Killian though.  I am sure it felt so good at it was almost 100 degrees.  I wanted to run and play in the water too! 

More fun on the playground! 

Last year Lauren and Killian also got sno cones.  Killian remembered that Lauren got a blue one and he got a red one.  Round two this year! 

We did not have seats with Killian and his family, but we were able to sit with them for a little while before we got kicked out.  They had a blast eating their sno cones and watching the game.  Lauren has always loved watching baseball.  She really gets into it and can tell what is going on. 

It was packed at the stadium, mainly with Cardinals fans (BOO.)  The coolest thing was the crowd chanting "USA, USA, USA" after the soccer team scored and tied the game 1-1.  Too bad the US didn't pull off the win!  Mark and I said that was about the coolest thing we had ever experienced in the world of sports.  Both teams coming together chanting "USA."

We left around the 5th or 6th inning.  I can't really remember since we were out at the playground most of the time.  Lauren fell asleep in the car almost immediately and took a cat nap.  We headed to my parents to get Addison.  She spent the day with Gramps and Nana and had a great time.  She can really be such a great baby.  She goes from one extreme to the next.  Super sweet, or temper tantrums.  But boy did we miss her this afternoon when we were at the game.
