Take me out to the ballgame

Last night we went to "mormon night" at Mission Stadium. As we found our seat and the dude went around yelling "cold beer" I said to Michael "doesn't he know its Mormon night?" What is 'mormon night' you might ask, well, I did too. Apparently the Timberwolves in WI had a night each season where they invited special groups too, such as the mormons, to come watch the game with other mormons. Then he asked didn't I ever have a mormon night? Before retracting the question my answer was "every night is mormon night in Utah" They usually invite a popular LDS athlete to throw the first pitch and meet some fans. Ty Detmer was there last night (we weren't 'chosen' to meet him tho) and the LDS Missionaries in the area sung the National Anthem (which we also missed). Some of the inning entertainment was a tricycle race between a companionship. It was pretty funny to watch and they joked who better to participate in a cycling competition. And a friend of ours won Whataburger Wheel of Fortune and won us some free whataburger (not to be confused with THAT'S A BURGER as "what" is actually good :)

ANYWAY . . . . . . . . we had fun. And apparentely the missions winning 3-0 was nothing short of a miracle. Although Rylee isn't much of a missions fan, she cried through all the good plays. for HER sake, at least there were only two of them. {she doesn't quite understand the concept that cheering = GOOD} We'll cut her some slack this time.

She may have cried through the good plays, but she certainly looked cute!

Maybe she wanted a cold beer like the guy was yelling. She doesn't know what morman night is yet either. :)
