Take Me Out To The Ballgame...

A few months before our beach trip, I began to look for something new to do around Rockport. We have been so many times that we feel like we do the same things every year. I decided to check out the Corpus Christi AA team, the Hooks. It just so happened that they were playing the Frisco Roughriders while we were in town. And, it happened to be dollar dogs and sodas! What else could we ask for, baseball, dogs and cokes. We settled into our outfield seats on the lawn and ate a few dogs. Bailey enjoyed resting on Mimi.
The kids loved standing along the wall and looking down to see the players and Jack really enjoyed begging after each and every inning for a ball to be thrown at him.
Connor didn't appreciate the game too much yet. He was more interested in running away to the really nice kids play area below us. One home run ball was hit like a line drive directly between our blanket and Terry and Nicole's. It hit the ground very hard and flew to fast for us to get it behind us. I was so grateful that none of the kids were in the path of that hard hit ball.
It was a fun, new adventure during our beach vacation.
