Baseball

UVU vs UofU!!!

We COULD have witnessed history here! UVU was tied with a 32 winning streak. If they beat the Utes they would have been the only college baseball team to have won 33 games in a row. Chases baseball (Tigers) team and the Journey all went. Another thing happened that Coop (nor we) will ever forget. As a mom, it is both heartbreaking, and as a girl with a twisted sense of humor, hilarious at the same time. I have a nervous, maybe "cope in time of stress", laugh...But this killed me. It probably won't you, so Im doing this for journaling purposes:)

Here's Coop...just enjoying is $1 hotdog...happy as a bird with a frech fry.
Since we came with two groups, we went early because we were told is was hard to get seating and if you didn't get your hotdogs/snacks/drinks etc. early you would be in line FOREVER! And, we were not about to let Coop go without his ballpark hotdog(S)! Enter the need for a snow cone...Exit the window of opportunity with the short line. You know Coop...really really just had.to.have.a.snow.cone! So he goes to stand in line. It was the bottom of the 2nd inning and there was a good play to end it, so there was a lot of cheering. A minute later, Cooper comes to the seats sobbing....i mean uncontrollably crying...cant talk! He NEVER does this so Im thinking the worst and I became instantly sick. You know the feeling when you just wanna hold em, let em know you'll fix it, wish whatever happened away! Finally when he could get any words out at all, he said he was waiting in line forever (which he WAS) and when he heard the cheering, he thought he missed the whole game and changed his mind about the snow cone but was already waiting for so long! Later, he said he "felt stupid" because he wasted all that time for a snow cone when he wanted to see the game. The worst part, picture a cute, no teeth, sweaty, playful boy waiting patiently and anxiously in line, hearing the crowd, realizing what happened....and he was now 2nd in line!!! Seriously, he was next and he bailed. The funny part about this is 1)he didn't have enough money anyway so that would have sucked rocks and 2)he was also in the wrong line...sucked boulders! I felt sooooo bad! I totally should have went with him and checked out the sitch before I sent adorable Cooper to fend for himself (NOT like he was suffering, he ate like 3 hotdogs). I thought it was time to be a mom so I went up myself to get him one....and quickly came back because the line was easy 100 people. Bbbbut the good new is, it was only 2nd inning, still a lot of game left:)

Finally! Tigers Blood and Red Raspberry snow cone. Hope it was worth it buddy!

I'm happy for moments we get to spend with family and friends at the ballpark...
