Take Me Out to the Ballgame!







We had an AMAZING day today on our trip to Petco Park in San Diego, CA for the Padres vs Rockies baseball game! Perfect weather, greats seats, even greater company to share the experience with!




With our backpack of snacks and sunscreen, three adults, two teens and five littles enjoyed a tour of the stadium. We got to sit right behind the Rockies dugout where our Rockies gear wearing t-ball players were able to get some autographs! Ubaldo Jiminez signed Morgen & Cadens hats. Jimenez pitched the first no-hitter in Colorado Rockies history on April 17, 2010 against the Braves. All Star Carlos Gonzalez also signed their hats. Gonzalez won the NL Batting title in 2010, a gold glove and was runner up for NL MVP




We then moved over to "the park at the park". While we sat and watched (ok not really) the game, the kiddos played in the sand and enjoyed some games hosted by the Padres employees in the sandbox.




If you should have the opportunity to make it to a game at Petco park, they allow you to bring in snacks and drinks in closed containers (bigtime money-saver!) There is a playground for the kids to play and a GREAT hill for them to roll down!
