So on my way to work I am listening to the morning local sports show on the radio and they are giving a way a pair of tickets to callers 11 and 12. So I decide to try to win them...I have had luck in the past. Well, I was caller 4, 6, 8 and 12. I guess more people were concerned about the men's basketball final home game and didn't want to bother with softball.
I was pretty excited about my free tickets and Kyle had to burst my bubble by reminding me that he was going to have to work late. Well Boo!!! I decided that Taryne and I would go even if it was just the two of us. So later in the afternoon I called my friend Mindy to see if she was going to softball and she was so we met up and went together.
Taryne had so much fun! She danced at all the music and played the entire time. We didn't stay the entire game because it was getting a little chilly and I really wanted to watch the basketball game which started at 8pm.
Here are a few pics from the game:
We really hope Taryne grows to love softball and other sports like we do. She seems to enjoy watching sports in person and on TV so we can only hope.
And a bit of trivia about Taryne's name...I know, you are wondering how that relates to Aggie softball or just softball in general...well...in 2007 while watching the Women's College World Series, there was a pitcher for Arizona whose name was Taryne. And she spelled it just the way we spell Taryne's name. That was the first time we heard the name and we loved it. So we decided if we ever have a girl, we would name her Taryne. Since then, we have seen Taryne several times...usually the girl is a softball player (crazy coincidence) but it is spelled as Taryn. We decided to keep it the way we originally found the name. So, long story short, maybe she will grow up to be a pitcher and win the Women's College World Series for some great university.
Until next time...Gig'em!
