Dayton Dragons

Before school started, the Chiles' invited our family to go with them to a Dayton Dragons minor league baseball game. Mike works for a Ford dealer, and Ford was sponsoring the entertainment for the game that night - Rockin' Ray and the Skyy Dogs. All of us got to go behind the scenes and get a mini-tour....including walking into the dugout and stepping onto the field. Then we got to meet Ray and one of the Sky Dogs before the game. He invited all the kids the meet him on the field during the 7th inning stretch to help him sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". So exciting! Believe it or not....I had decided not to take my camera that night and just enjoy the time with my family. I had no idea we'd have photo ops like this! Lucky for us, they had a photographer who took photos of all the events throughout the evening and then emailed them to us.

On the field before the game....


Meeting Ray and one of the Skyy Dogs.... One of the Skyy Dogs in action.....
Singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" - Dane didn't want to go on the field....he has a slight phobia of people in costumes and didn't like their mascots! Jacob and Cade have on Skyy Dog hats with ears.....One...two...three strikes you're out.....

I love it! I wasn't sure what the Skyy Dogs were when I read it, but that looks like fun. That's great that the kids got to go on the field to sing and the boys weren't too cool to wear the dog ear hats.
