Happiness is...

Thanks to Mimi and Scrapaw and Great Tootsie, we took Joseph to a Padres game for his birthday last weekend. This kid loves baseball. He asks anyone who is here to play with him. He carries balls around. He practices throwing even if he doesn't have a ball in his hand. It is so much fun to do things for you kids that you know makes them so happy.We went early for batting practice and one of the pitchers shagging balls in the outfield tossed a ball up to Joseph. There's the ball...and the pitcher, Crawford. Sorry to say I don't know much about him.
We've told you about all the perks the Padres stadium has. Here is one - a miniature baseball diamond. Unfortunately this picture was taken mid-whiff - typically he is pretty good.
If he knew any better, he might have felt bad to be shown up by his sister in a long gypsy skirt and winter sweater. As it was, and usually is, he was just happy to be there.

Head tucked, elbows up.


Keeping stats.
Looking old.
Justin and Minna.
It was a great way to start off the weekend.

Tell mike good job of watching "baby". I love O. pointed toe and lips right b/4 she hit the ball. Joe looks cute in his Mast shirt and ball hat. And, I don't think ya'll look old.
