July 21

The boys, Isaac's friend Tyler, Adam and I went to the A's game this afternoon.

And these three goofers had the best time. They (loudly and enthusiastically) played a video game during the drive to the Coliseum, chitter-chattered about all-things baseball during the game, and did their best to try to acquire a ball or two. (No dice there, but A-pluses for all of them for effort.)

Their joy was so palpable that it made me smile several times as the afternoon wore on. So for that and for their easygoing, multi-year friendship, I am thankful.
