This past Saturday was Safeco Day at the Mariner's. I was able to get 8 tickets (Thanks Scott), but there were actually 10 of us there, because we had Owen and our friends Kevin & Julie brought there 7 month old son Kadyn with them. The other tickets were used by Grandma & Grandpa Grant and some other friends from church, Micah and Kim. It was sure an adventure taking Owen to his first game. As you see he was decked out in his Mariners bib (Thanks Grandma). What you can't see is under his bear outfit (Thanks Aunt Michelle) he was wearing a onesie that said Little All Star and a sleeper that said Future MVP. He was definitely layered and for good reason. It was windy and cold!!! Sadly the Mariner's poor starting pitcher, Weaver let 6 runs come in all in the first inning. They ended up taking him out of the game....in the first inning!!!! Needless to say we never recovered and we left in the 8th inning because we were freezing and it was getting late (it was almost 9). The only complaint I have about taking a baby to Safeco Field is that the men's restrooms do not have changing stations in them. Hello, there might be a single dad who brings his kid in diapers to the stadium. There was however a family bathroom so Michael and I did use that one time, but still it's the principle people!!

This is excellent, good record keeping for Owen. You know those cards "when you were born.... Roosevelt was president... gas cost 25 cents a gallon.... blahblah" You can tell Owen that Mariner's had a really bad pitching day at his first ball game! :)

That is a really cute picture of him. By the way, if you had come down to see me in the climate controlled terrace club, you would have been nice and warm. Also, the terrace club men's rooms have a counter large enough for baby changing, but not a designated changing table. Keep that in mind for Owen's next baseball game.
Darn it Scott! I should have tracked you down. Next time. :)
