We had a wonderful time on July 3 at the Brewer's game. Steve's brother from South Carolina came up for a couple of weeks and stayed with his parents in Watertown. On Monday, they came over for lunch and then we headed to the game at 1:05. They were great seats for the price - we had a great view of the game, the breeze cooled us off, but we couldn't see the scoreboard - oh well! All the kids got cute mini-bats at the fan shop during the stretch, but started nailing each other in a mock sword fight afterwards. The sun started to beat down on us at the end of the game - it got hot! The kids liked the sausage race right before the 7th inning (guys dressed in mascot uniforms as a Polish or Italian sausage, a hotdog and a bratwurst). Sounds a little weird, but hey life in WI has its German roots! During the last couple of innings, the Brewers lost their lead, but saved the day in the ninth - woohoo! We piled into our cars and came to our house for Little Caesar's pizza - thanks to Tim & Heather:). All in all a great but exhausting day. In the pictures you can see Max, Nancy and Grandma Deaver--Steve's parents and grandma are in one picture, Tim (Steve's brother), Heather and Isaac are in another, Joshua & Sierra on the bleachers and Tim & the kids--Aaron, Caleb, Joshua & Sierra. Some of the pictures will come later.

Looking forward to those pictures :)
Go sausages! I know, only in WI can you do a polka during the 7th inning stretch. I love all those quirky WI things though. Matt and I were just talking about how we never made time to go to a Brewer's game together when we lived there (we don't really get excited about baseball). I tried to explain all the cool extras involved in a WI brewer's game but he just didn't get it. :( Do they still have Bernie sliding down the slide for each run?
Oh yes! Sierra is obsessed with watching Bernie, and of course, we were in the bathroom when someone hit a homerun, and he went down the slide. Tears, Tears, Tears :)
I LOVE WATCHING BERNIE TOO!! What a kid. I'm glad you're having a great time. I'll be in West Bend for Caleb's concert this wkd. Where do you live?
When and where is his concert?
Hey Carissa....it is Monica (Lemay) Kish. Is it true that you have twins but didn't know you were having twins until you had them??? or is that an Iron Mtn urban legend :)
