Taking a Bus Trip

A few weeks ago Josh, once again, won tickets to the Texas Rangers baseball game through ESPN radio.  Whereas last time the trip was to San Antonio, this one was at the Ballpark in Arlington.  We knew we couldn't find a sitter for 12 hours so we asked for 4 tickets to take both the boys.  But the day of the game, we decided Reid was just too young to ride the bus full of people.  Josh and I knew Connor would have a good time, but didn't know which one of us would go.  Finally as it was time to go we decided that it would be a good outing for Connor and his momma and Daddy and Reid would go swimming.  Connor was sooo very excited!!  He was GREAT on the bus (I on the other hand got a little car sick!)

Connor took this picture of me on the bus.  He kept trying to talk to me and I just felt so badly! Blah!

 Here's my little date in the stands.  Connor didn't want anything else other than cotton candy.  I convinced him to eat a cheeseburger first, then came the big bag of sugar!!

Being silly and making a face just like his daddy!

 We had a very exciting visitor come join us.  Yea for UNCLE JASON!!!!

The most exciting thing (other than cotton candy and Uncle Jason, of course) was that Connor and I were on Fox Sports Southwest!  We first stood next to the big bus which the camera zoomed in on Connor.  Then Jim Knox was interviewing the group and tried to talk to Connor.  He said "even 4 year old Connor was on the bus" and when he tried to lean in to talk to him, Connor shied away and wouldn't talk.  Knox finished it up by saying "it's going to be a late night for Connor!"  And it was.  We had his soccer game (in the heat) earlier that day and the interview was about 9:30pm.  Mimi and Papa Jud happened to be watching the game so they recorded it for us.  Ha.  And Jim Knox was right about it being a late night.  About 5 minutes into the drive back home, this is what I saw in my lap:

He slept the whole way home until we arrived at our car around 1:30am. Then he popped up and was in the best mood! He laughed and talked the whole way back to our house!

 

Fun Times!!
