Mormon Dodger Night

Thursday was "Mormon Dodger Night", LDS people flock to dodger stadium to watch the game. We went with a group from our ward. Before the game with hit the pool.

Next stop was the Barn Burner on Fair Oaks. Thursdays they have a $1 menu. We've always wanted to try it out mostly because of the big chicken out front. The grilled corn on the cob was awesome.

"Dodgers are #1!"

The Dodgers were playing the Atlanta Braves. After the 7th inning we were down 2 to 4. So, we left. To Steven's dismay, the Dodgers came back. In the last inning Ethier hit a walk-off homerun to win the game for the Dodgers. Oh well. If we had stayed they would have lost!

Beans

Disclaimer: This post contains the cutest picture of Jackson and the most frightening. Here is the cutest one:

He LOVES beans!

Here is the most frightening picture. He looks like a haggle-tooth little monster, but a happy little haggle-toothed monster!
