On Saturday we celebrated our nephew Barrett's 5th birthday at Minute Maid Park. We went on an incredible tour of the facility. I think the adults liked it as much as the kids! :) We went into the president suites, all of the press boxes and Fox Sports booth, right outside of the player's club house (where we saw Astros pitcher Rhiner Cruz walk in), where they hold all of the press conferences, etc. Some fancy stuff! Never even knew all of it existed. We even got lost as a group of us got left behind by our tour guide! If you are in the president's club you are whined and dined in style, that's for sure. Next up we got to walk onto the field, went in the dugout, and bullpen and got some great pictures. We also got to hear Third Day warm up while we were walking around as they were playing that night after the game. After the tour the kids went to Squeeze Play, a favorite every time we go to a game. They all had a blast! It was nice having it all to ourselves without a crowd of kids. After playing we went to a nice suite for cake and juice. There the kids enjoyed sitting in the seats right outside the glass watching some of the players begin to warm up and scream their lungs out at them. It was such a great party, one of the best! After the party all of the family went to eat at The Spaghetti Wharehouse downtown for lunch. We ate in the trolley car upstairs and the kids enjoyed it.

Love how Landon put his arm around Weston! It's a challenge to get a picture with all four looking at the camera.
Kids being silly. Emerson likes to make faces and stick her tongue out in pictures recently.
