Labor Day and Da Bulls

As Labor Day weekend was upon us, we decided to take the kids out for a little pizza and baseball to enjoy the nice weather that we were having.



We started with a little pizza from the Mellow Mushroom in downtown Durham. The food was great and the outside dining was just what we needed when Lia had her pre-dinner meltdown.

Then we headed over to the stadium to watch the Durham Bulls play. It was almost sold out when we got tickets so we had to sit on the grassy knoll behind center field. Alex was camped out with his glove hoping for a home run to come his way.

And when Lia wasn't cheering the team on...


...she was focused on catching her own ball.



These two were quite a pair holding each other's hands as they strolled around the upper deck. Here, though, Lia is showing her independent streak...a rare occurence :)
Although, it's been fun checking out all the things there are to do in the area, it's still not the same as doing it with friends from home. Miss you all!
