los angeles
chase and i took a long weekend over labor day and went to los angeles. we were given the best seats in the house at a few dodger games (thanks, susan!) and were treated like royalty! it was a blast. we got the behind the scenes tour of the stadium which is the 3rd oldest stadium in the united states. it has a very cool retro feel about it. kershaw was on the mound for one of the games, and they won both games that we attended. i'm think that we must be good luck!
chase and jackie robinson
in the halls of dodger stadium
with the world series trophies
we had seats in the dugout club (right behind home plate) which also gave us access to FOOD! and lots of it! every night before the game, they had a huge set up of just about everything you could think of to eat for the dugout club members. and then, once you got to your seat there was in seat catering. so you could order nachos or hotdogs or whatever else you wanted to be brought to you. let's just say that we were not ever hungry on this trip!!
pretty sweet seats!

our awesome seats
the original trunks that carried equipment for the team all the way back when they were the brooklyn dodgers
old game tickets and stadium seats
view from the top
you can see the hollywood sign from the stadium. pretty neat.

we did some sightseeing while we were there, too. we LOVED dodger stadium, but we didn't really think all that much of the city. we will definitely go back for baseball, but I don't think we will make it a point to go hang out in LA!
santa monica pier
the very end of route 66
venice beach, including a skate park built by tony hawk, a pickle ball park, a body-building competition (gross!), the basketball court from the movie white men can't jump, and one of the original canals...
rodeo drive and beverly hills
the hollywood sign from griffith park and observatory
we went over to hollywood boulevard and the walk of fame. it was too vegas-ish for me. we saw it quickly and got out.
grauman's chinese theater
disney's el capitan theater
B.B. King's star (i had to stop for the delta boy!)
dolby theater
it was a quick but really fun trip! and, the dodgers are still rolling right along in the month of october!! i think we were the good luck charm that pushed them in the right direction! go, dodgers!!!

the good years
you always think you'll miss the baby stage (and i guess you do in some ways), but i'm kind of liking this stage of life. after supper one night recently, every kid was occupied by something of his own doing. william was stringing a racket, reed was reading a book, wes was working on a school project (unprompted), and the US Open was on in the background. everyone can shower on their own, pack their own lunches, and dress themselves. well, maybe that last thing needs a little help, but i'll take these ages for sure!!
