our little "angel"

Our family was able to go the Angels game last night thanks to some tickets Derek scored from Oakley.  We hadn't been to a game in a while so the kids were excited.  When I picked up the boys from school Luke serenaded us with Take Me Out To The Ballgame over and over and over and over...  He seemed to be obsessing about the song and wanted to keep "practicing" it. Little did we know the song would bring us plenty of laughs later in the evening.

Conversation between me and Luke at the game...

Luke:  "So Mom, buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks."

Mom:  "How about some cotton candy?"

Luke:  "That's a better idea, I don't even know what Cracker Jacks are."

I wonder what he thought he was singing about all day.  A few times during his singing "practice" he would sing "buy me some peanuts and Apple Jacks"  I know he knows what those are.

Another conversation/comment from Luke as we were leaving the stadium after the 7th inning stretch (we knew we were going to leave early so kids could get in bed - we also knew we had to stay for Take Me Out To The Ballgame or Luke would have imploded)

Luke to Nathan after hearing some lady sing "the song" he had practiced all day:  "that lady stoled my career"

I guess Luke had been planning on singing his song at the game and was disappointed that his career dreams were crushed by some lady that was not nearly as good as he would have been :)
