The Tacoma Reindeers, I mean Rainiers.






Today Milly attended her first baseball game ever, and what a great time we had! As soon as we reached the stadium, Milly's knew something exciting was going on, she was watching all the people, taking in all the excitement that was in the air. MIlly's favorite part of the game was watching the Rainier's mascot, Rhubarb the Reindeer, dance and engage the crowd. She referred to Rhubarb as the Daddy Reindeer, in fact that was the thing she asked him when she finally got to see him up close. With a pure stroke of luck, as we walked back from the bathroom during the fifth inning Mike caught a foul ball for Milly that had fallen from the roof behind home base. So exciting for Milly, and even more exciting that she got Rhubarb to autograph it! In case anyone is wondering, Milly is a huge baseball fan now. I'm confident that we'll attend many more Rainier games this year as a family, and I'm equally as confident that next time we'll eat BEFORE we go as the food is way too expensive.
