A Phun Day in the Philles Ballpark!!

Last Sunday was a day we were anticipating for about two months- Landon's first Phillies game! Greg and I have always loved going to Phillies games together...now that I am thinking of it, that's where we had our first kiss...wow, 14 years ago! AH! So, anyway, we bought tickets for the Phanatic's birthday a few months ago, excited to share these fun times as a family. We knew he would love seeing all the other mascots running around on the field, and they would be a help to keeping him entertained throughout the game. He has been saying "ballpark" for a while now, and "phanatic" too- well, that sounds more like "natti."

Other than a 2nd-4th inning walk around the ballpark to get the ants out of our 2 year old's pants, he did it- he lasted the entire game! There were a few funny memories- one was after the Phanatic and the other mascots danced on top of the dugout, Landon repeatedly said, "Landon" while pointing down to where they were. No, hunny, we can't let you jump down to the field level. :) I wonder if he will like the Phanatic when he gets closer and sees how big he really is- I am predicting- NO.

Here are a few photos!

We brought his glove, even though foul balls never reach the 400 level




Love when he looks back at me like this!
...even though it is usually right before he is doing something he shouldn't!


Yummy....popcorn!


After the game we asked a kind lady to take our picture :)

We are already looking forward to our next trip to the ballpark! But, before that, we have a fun weekend about to start (well, all but Landon's bloodwork which is tomorrow morning)! Dying Easter Eggs, 2 family dinners, church...in an outfit I am dying to see my handsome boy in, and hopefully an Easter Egg hunt if it doesn't get rained out!

Happy Easter everyone!

  1. Looks like a blast!!! Love all the pics and I know you will always cherish the memory!! We are excited to take Hayden to his first Indian's game this summer...something we have really been looking forward to! (Although today he is supporting your favorite team with a Phillie's shirt since his uncle plays for their organization!!).
