Take me out to the ballgame
Grandma Ringstrom collected on her annual Mother’s Day present and we all headed to the ballpark to watch the Whitecaps play the Great Lakes Loons. Great game, lots of exciting plays including two homeruns. The Whitecaps are fighting for a playoff spot, so there was a lot at stake. Sadly, it was the hottest day of the year (literally, they said it on the news that night). Lucky for us, our seats were shaded by the luxury box overhang (hooray for rich people) but as it was, we were melting. But we had fun anyway, the Whitecaps won, and the kids got to run the bases afterward with Papa (it was Grandparents Day).
The gang (minus Kris, the photographer)
Mmmm, chocolate ice cream!
The girl loves her chocolate. Not a drop on the dress! (I was vigilant with the napkins.)

The Ringstrom Girls
Baseball is exhausting! (Maybe he's praying for a cool breeze.)
Can you imagine how tired the people actual playing the game must have been?
Sam, Avery and Papa rallied to run the bases, though
Missed the high-five picture. Avery rounds third.
Go Avery! Head for home! Go Papa! Slide! (We put her in tennis shoes for this part, instead of sandals)
