The trip that typically takes about 6 hours took us about 7 1/2 - so not too bad considering we stopped for dinner, took extra potty breaks and were stuck in traffic both before we hit the 5 and once we hit the 5/10/60 freeway merges.
After we checked into our hotel we all happily slept until about 8 in the morning. But we had a big day in store for us. We were headed to Dodger Stadium - for Drew's first SoCal baseball game ever. Well as an extra bonus it was "meet" the player's day! So we got to get onto the field!
That's right! Dave kept saying this is where Drew will be in another 16-18 years. We'll see if he predicts correctly.
Here's a picture of the three of us... sorry it's a bit blurry.
Dave caught more of the players on the video camera, but I was in control of the still photos. With a broken toe, big crowds and trying to keep an eye on a wandering two year old.... needless to say I didn't get many pictures of the players, but here are a few (I only know the players from the back when I can read their names...)
After a bit Drew was starting to have enough of the crowds and heat on the field and wanted to go find his seats and get something to drink. So he didn't cooperate for the candid of him and I.
But before we could go, Daddy and Drew had to pose in left field also known as Mannywood....
Once we made it to our seats - Drew was awfully excited!
He was quite the trooper for the entire game! There were no incidents, meltdowns or accidents (those who are potty training understand what a big feat this is). At the end of the game we posed for another family shot.
And we couldn't forget Tata who joined us for the game (Abuela stayed home because her knees were really giving her a bad time).
And last but not least - who can forget the about the Dodger Dogs!
Not so great a day for the Dodgers who lost 7-2 to the Cubs. Of course of the four game series we went to the one game where the Dodgers lost to the Cubs. Oh well, at least we had a great time!
