Whitecaps Game



For Father's day this year Ella and I got Craig tickets to a Whitecaps game and we recently went. We also took Ella to a game there last year and she did pretty good so with her being a year older I was really hoping she would be as good if not better. We had great seats again this year, front row behind home plate. This is nice because it gives Ella a little more room to move around without annoying anyone in front of her! The Whitecaps games are fun because they throw in a lot of fun activities between innings to hold the interest of the kids. Ella loved watching the mascots dance and even watched some of the game this year. We would like to take Ella to a Tiger's game, but let's face it the cost of tickets, plus the drive are not worth it yet when she probably can't sit still for a game. So we figure a Whitecaps game is a good start for her. She can see baseball, have the experience and it doesn't cost a fortune! She also enjoyed some snacks (of course). I think the snacks might be her favorite part. She did start to get a bit hard to manage in the middle of the game, but I suppose this is to be expected after a 20oz pink lemonade and a half of bag of cotton candy :). It's all part of the experience right?! The game ended with fireworks which Ella had been looking forward to all night. All in all a fun family night out!
