Family Night at Minute Maid Park

Last night John's firm had a family night at Minute Maid Park where the Houston Astros play. It was really neat! There was a big spread of food, an incredible balloon artist (I have no picture of the ballerina he made Aulora - so sad!), face painting, batting practice down on the field, and the kids got to run the bases. We were allowed down in the dugouts and we ate in an exclusive area right off the field. So cool!

This ball park also has a place called Squeeze Play that is a big play area for kids during the games. The playground part was closed due to all the rain this week, but there were other baseball type activities and games that were open. No pictures of that though. The photographer was worn out! =)

Aulora and Joshua found some bats:

John and Joshua raced around the bases:

John was on the jumbotron when he was batting!

Aulora loved her face painting and her ice cream in a pink Astros hat:

Aulora ran the bases over and over and over. That girl needs to do track!
