party at the ballpark

Today we got to be at the Rangers Ballpark in Arlington for our friend, Fisher's 6th birthday party! Kendall loves the 3 Gorsline kids ... Fisher, London (who was in my preschool class this past year) and Avyn (who is 2 months younger than Kendall), so we were really happy to be able to celebrate Fisher's big day! It was a really fun party ... we dressed up in our Texas Rangers gear and headed to the ballpark ... Kendall decided to nap on the drive over, so she was really to play when we got there! It was pretty hot (over 100 today ... happy July in Texas!), but we spent time both indoors & outside so we were able to cool off. We ate hotdogs & got cotton candy (as Fisher's "birthday cake"), played t-ball with a wiffle ball on the cute little kids field inside the ballpark, and got a 1-hour Rangers Ballpark tour ... and cool party favors from Fisher & the Texas Rangers!

Kendall's turn ... she loooooved batting!

she hit it (thanks to a bit of help from Daddy) ...
I love the look on Fisher's face here!

 

"I running!  I running!"  she said as she ran around the bases

After our T-Ball game, we ate hotdogs & sang Happy Birthday to Fisher ... then it was time for our Tour!  We got to go to the Press Box and check out the press's area & their view of the game ...

We got to check out the Suites that companies use ... very nice!

And we got to see where the Rangers work out & have batting practice ...

Loved all the encouraging words & scripture that was on their walls.

We got a quick glimpse inside the Rangers' Clubhouse (their lockeroom) when the doors opened for someone else to go in ... that was one area we were not allowed to go.  We got to see where they hold their Press Conferences ... and Kendall & Daddy got behind the table, where Josh Hamilton & the other Rangers sit ...

Then we got to check out the Rangers' dugout and be right out on the field!  Awesome!

Kendall got a soft Rangers baseball as a party
favor from Fisher, along with cotton candy
(which she will get to try, for the 1st time, per
her Daddy).  The Rangers gave her a red foam
finger, which she also loves!

Happy Birthday, Fisher! 
Thanks for inviting us to your awesome 6th birthday party!  We loved celebrating you!
