A couple weekends back, Cale and I got to soak in our last bit of sunshine. Have you been outside? The time is going to change this weekend, which means the few chances that I have to get some vitamin D will be demolished. But two weeks ago, the sun was out, and we even got a little tan. We had family that was involved with organizing a vintage baseball game here in San Jose over the weekend. So we headed to the ballpark with our sunflower seeds in tow.
This is a former major league player. Who? No idea.. but look at the fancy umpire, complete with cigar!
They play with 1800′s equipment too: bats, gloves, etc. Check out the photos at the SJ Mercury News. Much better than mine and gives you an up close look at this vintage baseball.
We had a great time enjoying the game, the great weather, and a beer on a Saturday afternoon. Well and playing with babies…
Cale and Chase. Calm down my uterus.
Let’s not forget the other momentous occasion from that weekend: Chase spitting up all over me. Yeah. Nice.
In other random news:
- We got Soft Claws to put on our cat. We just got the clear (Stupid Petco AND Petsmart did not have any of the colors). But I was shocked at how easy it was to put on him. It was one of those moments where you just want to kick yourself for not doing it sooner.
- I actually have a Halloween costume for this year. Pros to going as a 60′s secretary: getting to buy fabulous shoes, having a dress I can rewear, and ratting my hair like nobody’s business. I’m excited!
- Laughing like a 12 year old when I overhear “Don’t worry you won’t have to bob someone else’s apple” while at work. You bet I won’t be bobbing anyone else’s apple.
- I’m going to be gone all next week in Scottsdale, Arizona next week for training. I’m hoping there will be some nice warm weather waiting for me.
- I have been able to keep my google reader at a manageable level lately. If only I could also keep up blogging on a regular basis, but we’ll just take the little successes as they come.
What little successes did you have this week?

Awww, that baseball game looks like a lot of fun! And your Halloween costume sounds brilliant. … I wish I wasn’t working so I could dress up as something other than a photographer.
Little successes? Umm, it’s Friday. And today shouldn’t be too hectic, which is a success, in and of itself. Work has been nuts lately.
hmm my successes…
Cleaned in between Frank’s toes and got rid of the cracks on my heels!
A vintage baseball game?! That’s so cool. My dad would love that.
Success lately? Going to bed at a reasonable hour and waking up feeling marginally rested. Keeping my text messages in check. Working in exercise more and more frequently which for me is a HUGE success.
That baseball game looks so cool!! That would be so fun to go to!
omg, those Soft Claws, CRACKED ME UP! Bummer that you couldn’t find the colored ones b/c holy cow, HILARIOUS! i love it.
I wanna see pics of your Halloween Costume! I bet you were HOT!
hmm, success for me….yeah, i’m kind slacking in that dpt lately =/
I guess I’ve been cooking more homemade dinners again lately! I always get lazy about that when the weather’s warmer out
That looks like a lot of fun. Was it “vintage” just because of the clothing?
Maddy,
Actually it’s really cool! They use all the old equipment, along with the old time rules. Their gloves are super tiny compared to the gloves they use now-a-days. Thanks for coming by!
Jimaie,
I totally suck and didn’t get any pictures of me in my costume. I was just SO ready to be done with the party and the day that I totally forgot! Fail!
Love the last picture. Too cute!
