Our Little Boogers

Sharing our lives: two kids, two full-time jobs, one old house, and plenty of love and laughter. And baseball.

BBQ, Bluegrass, and Hockey?

We went to a big bluegrass festival tonight with Nana and Pops. There was also a barbecue competition... but we couldn't find the champion meat! We settled for some interfaith sandwiches (delicious interfaith sandwiches).

The Carolina Hurricanes had a game set up at the festival. If you hit your puck through one of the holes you would win a free t-shirt! The little guy wanted to play, so we waited in line and he played. I felt pretty ridiculous explaining that my not-quite-four-year-old hits lefty so could he please have a different stick. He didn't manage to hit the puck into one of the holes, but he did pretty well. He earned a high-five from the booth people and a round of applause from the other people in line.
After eating and listening to some music, we headed back to the car. We wandered around the state capitol building on the way and I took this sweet picture.

    1. He is always ready to play whatever sport is on offer. That's why he wears the leg sweatbands.
