Take Me Out to the Rays Game!

For the first time in history, the Tampa Bay Rays are heading to the playoffs! Last Saturday we went to the Rays vs. Twins game with friends. The Rays clinched their division and are headed to the playoffs. It was neat to see the excitement, even though we aren't huge baseball fans. Here are some pictures of the day!

Here we were finding our seats... it was a sold out crowd.

It's a "Pirate's Life" in Tampa Bay... GO BUCS!!

Football season has FINALLY started! We purchased Buc's season tickets this year and this past Sunday was the home opener against the Atlanta Falcons. We tailgated with friends and had really nice weather. It was VERY hot though so lots of sunscreen was used :) Oh... did I forget to mention that the Buc's won... 24-9

GO BUCS!!

Here are a few pictures of our day. Ahoy Matey!!!

We are also very proud of the USF Bulls who beat the Kansas Jayhawks on friday night and are now ranked #12 in the Top 25! GO BULLS!!

Here we are at the tailgate party.

Here was the field as the Buc's were entering the field.

Happy Birthday to Meg!

Happy 6th Birthday Meg! In celebration of Meg's birthday this week we decided to put in a pool. Well... not a real pool anyway :) It has been such a HOT summer and particularly this week has been incredibly hot, so we thought she would enjoy cooling off some. Well, she's not too sure about what it is. She thinks it's just a very BIG water bowl for her to drink out of :) Hopefully with a little more coaxing she will be flapping around in it in no time. We hope everyone's Labor Day was nice... Bring on FALL!

Here she's trying to figure out how to get the ball without getting wet :)

"What on earth is this thing?"

Getting a little braver, but not quite there :)

"AHHH, this is the biggest water bowl!"
