Brandon's Puppy

I love Baseball

I'm posting this without mommy knowing. It's a big surprise so don't tell her yet.

Yesterday, I went to the Marlins season Opener with Mommy, Daddy, Titi and my super coolest Uncle Val. It was an adventure because we almost missed the first pitch. Uncle Val says that is a bad thing and I believe him cause he's Uncle Val.

First, Daddy dropped Mommy off at the Doctor's office because she had an apoynt appoint apoinment.. she had to see the doctor. Then Daddy took me to my great Grandparent's house where Titi and Uncle Val were waiting for me. I played for a little while with my great grandmother and great grandfather because they really know that I'm the best thing since sliced bread.

After a little while there we all got in the car - Uncle Val rode shotgun cause he says he's too big but I think he's getting a little fat - and then went to pick up Mommy at the doctor's office. But the doctor still hadnt seen mommy and we had to wait in the car forever. Mommy had left a CD in the stereo that was pretty nice. It's called Baby Mozart and has some great music. But we waited so long that it kept playing over and over and over. I heard it so many times that if mommy gives me a piano I can play those tunes.

Titi was hungry so we went to a Wendy's and came back. She gave me some french fries. I like french fries. Theyre pretty tasty. After she ate, Titi tried to keep me occupied by playing with me and my stuffed Nemo. She kept shoving that stuffed animal in my face and I kept laughing. Not because it was funny but because I didnt want to let Titi know that she was tickling my nose with the furry thing. If I were a little bigger, I would have stuffed Nemo in Titi's face to see how she would like a fuzzy thing going in her nose.

Finally Mommy calls that she's ready and we went and picked her up. She drove us to the ballpark really fast. I think Uncle val was scared 'cause he was in the passenger seat and looked like he was braking and he was holding on for dear life. Uncle Val is a little cooky.

When we finally made it to the stadium, we found a pretty good parking spot just in time to see some men flying down on parashoots parachoots...hanging from big blankets. Every one was in a hurry so we all were walking fast. Mommy and Daddy took turns carrying me to the stadium. Once we got there Uncle Val was forced volunteered to carry up the long winding ramps. It was four stories high. Uncle Val kept saying alot of words I havent heard before when he was getting to the top.

We finally made it to our seats right before the game started. I saw them introduce all the players and even stood up for the National Anthem. I saw the first pitch being thrown and even a few innings before I fell asleep on Mommy's lap.

Next thing I know I wake up and it's the eighth inning and Uncle Val is now yelling those words he was saying before. It was a little scary, but the Marlins ended up winning the game and everybody was happy.

Uncle Val carried me on his shoulders all the way down the ramp and then all the way to the car. For a fat old guy, Uncle Val is pretty strong. Anyway, the minute Mommy put me in the car seat I fell asleep.

I had a great time at the ballgame, even if I didnt get to eat any hotdogs or peanuts or pretzels. Thanks for taking me, Mommy and Daddy!
