"Take Me Out to the Ballgame!"

This evening Daddy and I took you to your first ever baseball game. We went to Fairgrounds Field to watch the Shreveport Captains play the Fort Worth Wildcats. Tonight's game was special too; they asked all the fans to bring their dogs to the game, since they were playing the "Cats." There were all kinds of dogs out tonight, big and small. As we went in, we could see you were overwhelmed with the sights and sounds of the ballpark. You seemed a little clumsier than usual, as you tried to take it all in. We had great seats, and you asked lots of questions. "Why that man said that?" as a fan hollered out to the field was one. You couldn't sit still for long though, so we went and got Spongebob Cotton Candy and Daddy treated you to a Captains hat, eye patch and sword. It looked like a pirate costume to you (and us). You loved it. While we were walking around, we came across Captain Jack, the mascot who looks just like a pirate. You were a little intimidated and had nothing to do with him. We eventually moved up to the bleacher area, so you could have a little more room and space to roll your cars. But, as the game went on, you got more and more restless, so we decided to cut it a little short. But you seemed to have a good time, and so did we. The Captains won 12 to 4.
