Let's Go Rangers, Let's Go!

Yep- I am still trying to catch up on our fun Summer adventures. There were so many more than these, but I am touching the highlights so that I can get back to the every day blogging like I REALLY want to do!! I love my girls so much, and every day with them is a treat and a blessing. I just don't want to forget a second of it.
In June, Josh and I decided to take Brenna to a Rangers game. She went last year on a "daddy/daughter" date with Josh, and his friend Sean and daughter Makyla. She LOVED it and kept begging to go back. We decided that it would be WAY more fun to take a friend with her, so she chose to invite Tia (because in her mind, Tia should do EVERYTHING with us and we are OK with that!!).
After dropping Macie off to spend the evening with MeMawMom, Brenna, Tia, and I headed to Ft Worth to pick up Josh at the fire station (as he was still working 8-5 shifts). And what would a trip to a fire station be with a little photo op??

Complete with brand new shades. :)

The girls had a blast giggling in the back seat on the way to the ballpark. I am pretty sure most of their conversations revolved around what foods we were going to eat!
When we got there, our seats were still in the sun a bit, so we walked around until it cooled off (and I use the term cooled off very loosely because let's face it...it was Texas in June!!). While on our walk, we ran into some of the Rangers girls and they gave Brenna and Tia free hats! Pretty sure I was more impressed than the girls though! ha!
Before the game started, we got hot dogs and juice boxes to eat for dinner, then the topic quickly changed to SNACKS! Who knew that two 4 year olds could eat SOOO much??!! I had packed some snacks in anticipation of them loosing interest in the game (which happened about 30 seconds after the first pitch!). They munched on those, until we got peanuts. Those girls are some Peanut eating fools!!! I had no idea that 4 year olds could pack away the peanuts like that! But they were having a blast, and I figured we cold deal with the tummy aches later! (sorry Nikki!) ;)

Check out the mouth FULL of peanuts!

SERIOUS peanut concentration going on here!

I love these two little girls almost as much as they love each other!

After snacks got boring, we resorted to some Leap Frog games, Magnidoodle, and IPhones!

We even had a really nice lady in front of us that offered to take our picture! And apparently I thought she was too close and wasn't going to get us all in the picture, so I leaned WAAAAAYYYY over so that I didn't get cut off.....wonder if she realized what I was trying to do, or just thought I was a freak who liked to lay down to have my picture made? Either way, she should have informed me that I would still be in the picture if I sat up like a normal human...oh well.


 The girls got a little restless after a while, so we decided to head to the car. It was a fireworks show, and both girls insisted that they wanted to watch the show, so we decided to head to the car and watch it from there since we were going to have to walk 1/2 way around the field anyway to see it. The girls were just as happy to watch from the parking lot, and I think the look on their faces says it all!

It was a GREAT night, and we had a blast! It wasn't about watching a baseball game (because there wasn't much of that going on at all!), it was about having fun and making memories! And I am positive that these two had a blast, because they were sound asleep about 10 minutes after we got in the car....aaaahhhhh peaceful ride home. :)
