Finn's First Game and Father's Day

Finn attended his very first Minnesota Twins Baseball game on Father's Day-June 21, 2015

It was a beautiful day at Target Field

We ran the bases after the game!

Happy Father's Day John!

Checking out the bullpen.  The boys all hope that one day we will see our cousin Zach warming up in there!

And this picture of John kinda cracks me up

Good job Finn!

Finn was able to attend his first Twins baseball game on Father's Day 2015.  While we took Luke, Liam, and Aiden to their first game when they were around 9-10 months old, Finn is nearly two and had to wait just a bit longer.  I think perhaps we are wiser now as parents or maybe just more tired?  Of course, there is the factor of adding in not only Finn to the equation, but also his older brothers when we go to a baseball game.  When Luke and Liam were younger, our world revolved around them, of course.  Thankfully, we seem to finally be at the point where Luke and Liam enjoy watching the game.  Aiden still gets a bit restless and Finn was more than ready to go by the end of this game.  

We did, however, make it for the entire 9 innings with only a break for ice cream around the 6th inning (and a few random potty breaks) which is more than I can say for the previous games we have gone to when Luke, Liam, and Aiden were younger.  Our goal was to make it to the end of the game because on Sundays at Target Field you can run the bases after the game!

The weather at Target field was perfect with warm temperatures, sun and only a light breeze.  Aside from the fact that the Twins lost 8-0 against the Chicago Cubs, it was a perfect day at the ball park.  

In other news this week, Luke and Liam finished their first ever basketball camp at the local junior high school.  They really enjoyed it and seemed to learn a lot about the game in the process.  They are already asking to do it again next summer!
