Rangers Game ~ For A Job Well Done!

We found out last week that Sam passed the Math portion of the TAKS test. He had already passed the reading portion and so now we wanted to celebrate. We took him to a Texas Rangers game last Friday. It was a double header and with it being a Friday night game there were fireworks! Dr. Pepper was doing a promotion for tickets at half price. So, the three of us got to see two games, fireworks, $5 parking for it being Friday all for $50! Can't beat that! Not to mention that the Rangers WON BOTH GAMES! We are so proud of Sam for passing both of these major tests. This is the first year of many for him and we hope that he does as well in the years to come as he has done this year. Remember that you can click on the pictures to see them full size.

We arrived a little bit before 4:00 that afternoon. Found our seats and realized that they were great seats!
Here you can see the star that they cut into the infield.
Happy boy. Baseball and pizza...what else could he want.
