When I asked Xander about the game, he gave me a pretty good summary. "Some guys got hits, and some guys didn't get hits." I asked him what his favorite part was, and it turns out that it wasn't the baseball--it was taking the "city train" (AKA light rail) to and from the field! In fact, Aaron said that by the third inning, Xander kept asking if it was time to go back on the train yet. And since the game started after 7:00 and Xander usually goes to bed around 7:30 or 8:00, Aaron called it quits after that third inning.
Upon seeing these pictures just now, Xander announced, "I want to do that again!" I'd say it was a pretty successful father-son outing! Aaron also told me he'd like to go to another Rockies game, but that he'd like to go with me and leave the kids behind so he could stay for the whole game. What makes him think that my attention span for baseball is any longer than Xander's? Nah, really, it'd be super fun. As I always said when we were dating, it's who you're with not what you're doing that counts.

You're funny with your grammar issue. :) I'm so glad they got to do a father-son outing! I loved daddy-daughter dates as a kid. They're the best.
Who you're with is definitely more important. It is nice every so often to get through the whole game:)
