The time has come for one and all...To play ball!

Happy short week to me!! I got to stay home with my little man yesterday, and it was great! Sometimes I feel that between work and everything else, I barely get to spend anytime with him. So we took the day to have fun, and luckily it was nice out so he got to play outside.
He's getting so big!

It was nice to have the day off to relax after the weekend, which included taking Lincoln to see his first baseball game!

While we have no major teams of any sport here, we are home to the Evansville Otters baseball team. Honestly, I'm not a big sports fan, especially baseball (boring), but there is one cool thing about the Otters (and its definitely not that their the freakin Otters. Who picks an otter as their team mascot?? seriously.)







Their home field is Evansville's own Bosse Field, which besides being the third oldest professional ballpark in the country after Fenway and Wrigley, was used as the Racine Bells home stadium in "A League of Their Own".


Cool stuff, a little piece of movie history in southern Indiana...

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
