Thanksgiving + ALDS

I am a bit behind in my weekly blog posting. The week leading up to Thanksgiving was a busy one. Dad came to visit on Monday so Jasper had two spectators at swimming lessons.

Thursday, Pat went to work until 9:30am, then we drove down to Toronto for Game 1 of the American League Division Series.

Jasper is nervous for the Jays.

Our seats were really really high up, in the section in the 500 level that extends higher than the rest, above the lights. The crowd was really into the game, cheering for every single pitch through all 9 innings. The Jays didn't win that one, but Jasper was really goo and we didn't have to get up at all during the game.

Afterwards, we met up with Scott and Christopher and walked over to Kanga for dinner and some frozen takeaway pies. Then, it was back to Milton to sleep for the night.

The next morning, we drove back into the city. This time, Jasper and I didn't go to the game. Instead, I went to MEC to do some shopping and met up with Michelle for lunch. It was great to see her, it had been too long!

Jasper got to meet Michelle.

After lunch, we went back to Kanga. Erynn was there this time, so we spent the afternoon hanging out at the store drinking flat whites. We had lots of time to hang out, since the game went to 14 innings before the Jays lost.

Jasper was the Kanga store mascot for the afternoon.

When the game ended, I met up with the family for sushi dinner. We didn't stay in Kincardine for Thanksgiving, so dinner was our chance to see everyone.

Pumpkins are great for learning to sit.

After dinner, we drove to Parry Sound for Thanksgiving at the cottage.  The weather was great and the whole family was there.

Aunt Shelly came to visit!

Ready to watch the game streamed on Andy's phone.
