Fan Appreciation


The Oakland A's held a fan appreciation workout today. I guess they'll just let anyone in seeing as I'm not a fan. (hee hee) It wasn't as fun as last year's event when we were able to walk around on the field, but then again, last year we didn't get to watch practice.
Stomper's Fun Zone was open too. Alex did the soccer station and insisted on kicking the blue ball. He hit the post, so close! But he still won a pack of baseball cards. Then he and Zachary took a ride on a helicopter. Phil was apparently doing something for exciting or more likely, silly. Oh, wait, there's Zachary!

Later, after naps and dinner, we took the wagon out for a stroll. In the beginning, both boys were riding. Then Alex was running around, climbing on rocks. Finally, Alex decided that he wanted to "Pull wagon please". He did an amazing job of pulling the wagon and collecting interesting pieces of wood, pine needles, seed pods, etc. Every time we thought he was worn out, he would insist on pulling more. At one point, there were a couple of big bumps in the path. Alex kept talking about the "big bump". After we turned toward home, he would stop and sit down in the middle of the path and as soon as we asked if he wanted to take a break and ride, he would jump up and yell "Pull wagon please!"
