Carson tried bowling for the first time last week with his friend Tyler. He liked his funny "rent a foot disease" shoes and would have been thrilled if I had let him goof off on the slippery lanes the whole time. It was a challenge keeping him out of the way when it wasn't his turn, but he figured it out and I think it was a good lesson for him. What 3-year-old loves to take turns and isn't in everyone's way? He bowled a 92...with a little bumper/ramp assistance of course. It was a very fun outing, although at his age, one game is more than enough :).
We enjoyed an entire weekend of baseball thanks to a Sacramento connection that knows Washington Nationals first baseman Nick Johnson. We went to Saturday's game, and then the Miller Family joined us on Sunday for another. What fun! We cheered for the Astros, and for Mr. Nick, and had a blast! Cotton candy, Cracker Jacks, popcorn, helmet sundaes, nachos....we had it all! Carson played in the monster play area, and even got a chance to run the bases after Sunday's game. Thanks so much to Scott L. and of course "Mr. Nick." It was such a treat for all of us.
We enjoyed a great afternoon and evening at a block party. Carson played in a bounce house, ate lots of candy, rode scooters, and enjoyed sparklers and a fun fireworks display. It was a very fun day.
