LAD at Coors Field



My efforts to find a nearby Dodgers game (i.e., Atlanta.. Cincinnati) for a Father's Day surprise for Richie didn't land us to nearby... Instead, we ended up at Coors Field in Denver, CO - which was really a win-win as far as I'm concerned.
The kids have grown to be pretty big Dodgers fans over the past couple years... especially Luke.  It's hard not to love a winning team.. especially when you get to see them on TV almost every day from spring through fall.

It was a gorgeous day for a baseball game...
And, lucky us...  we had club seats, which I totally booked without even knowing I was booking club seats.  We literally walked all over the dang stadium looking for our seats and kept avoiding the "special elevator" that led to the club seats.
We finally asked - and were informed that mama splurged.
Yay for us!

The Dodgers were spectacular. 
Walker Buehler pitched.
Max Muncy had two home runs and four hits.
Mookie Betts had one home run and four hits.
Dodgers won 9-2!

It was an entertaining game with lots of laughs.




Happy Father's Day Richie 💙 Thanks for being such a devoted, lifelong fan and passing it on to each one of us... I have no doubt that your love for this game and this team will carry on for many more generations to come.

In That Space

Image
Wow! It's been a while.  Coming to this seat to reflect and write is always in the back of my mind, but sometimes it's just more complicated than others to actually get here. I have several significant events to share with you. I have pictures!! You must see! We've celebrated Charlie turning 5 (Oh my Lord! His world has changed!) We had our family Christmas time. We've had SNOW! We went skiing. Life keeps happening. I photograph it when I can. And I come here when it's time. It occurred to me today why I haven't been posting much.  This blog is primarily a place where I capture memories, store my photos, share a few laughs, and watch my kids grow. I tend to organize it around the photos I take. While I have a few pictures that I want to (and will!) share with you, for some reason my thoughts haven't been very focused on those photos or those events. I've kind of been in a weird space since the beginning of the year. It's not a bad space…...

… And My Most Silly Sweetheart ~ My Baby

Image
Finally, I get to introduce to you my baby ~ Charlie Aaron Hatcher. Chuckles. The most perfect nick-name there ever was ~ It's so profound as a mother to bring a new life into the world, and only a few short weeks after the little miracle arrives, you feel like you already know his personality and who he will be. I am describing Charlie to you today using nearly the same words I would have used when he was 3-months old. Funny, whimsical, stubborn - yet easy going, independent, and extremely loving (when he wants to be!) This child has enriched my life in so many ways. He is a little ball of energy, with a sassy attitude that cracks you up. And it's all topped off with a sugar coated sweetness that can melt your heart. I thought I had nearly mastered parenting, disciplining, and molding a child by having practiced with Sam ~ but come to find out I essentially had to throw out everything I learned with Sam, because this one has been a whole new ballgame. Amazing how that wo...

We Heart the Tomato Head

Image
It has become quite a tradition for the Hatcher family to visit our beloved Tomato Head anytime we have the opportunity. Because we tend to go out to eat a LOT… and because a good dining experience is quite high on our (or at list my) list of priorities, the opportunity to go to the Tomato Head presents itself quite frequently. Always once, many times twice per week. I do believe Sam and Charlie have even decided it to be their favorite place to eat (or maybe they just know it makes mama happy!) On Monday, while on our (home) vacation, we decided to take advantage of our glorious East Tennessee treasures up in the Smoky Mountains. Lucky us… there is a Tomato Head in downtown Maryville ~ so we had to visit as we were passing through. At both locations (Market Square and downtown Maryville), we prefer to sit outside. They have their trademark colorful lights hanging at both locations. Our meal always begins with blue chips and hummus. Always. Sam and Charlie gobble up their ...
