Like anything in our house, a simple birthday present and card doesn't cut it. I look at wrapped presents and see more "things" to clean up and find places for. We've been leaning towards "experience" gifts the last couple of years, at least for Mason and now for Delaney, Kendal still likes her "stuff" more than any experience! So, Mason and Mark headed down to a Giants Game this week with Will and Flo. They found great seats on the 3rd base line and got there when the gates opened to watch warm ups and take it all in. Warm ups were great. Mason collected 2 foul balls, they watched the pitchers warm up with Buster Posey and Panda waved to Mark as Mark shot some pictures. Mark missed the wave, but the others saw it. The game was a bummer - the boring type you'd turn off at home - 5-0 loss to the Braves, and to top it off, the next day's score was 10-4. Ah, life. Never know what to expect. But I'm glad that Mark got to take a day off work and they had a good trip and visit with Will and Flo. Memories in the making. And the lady behind them was a VP in Marketing for the Giants and was happy to let Mason pose with the World Series Ring - talk about cool.

"You know this baseball game of ours comes up from the
youth. That means the boys. And after you've been a boy,
and grow up to know how to play ball, then you come to
the boys you see representing themselves today in our
national pastime."
