ABC's Night at the T-Bones

Matt's work had a T-Bones night (because we don't go to enough T-Bones games) It was an awesome night and this little stinker was up until about 11! Having Bridgette there to help wrangle him was such a great help and we loved she got to come. She's so busy, we feel like we are stealing her when we actually get her on a Saturday night!

Charlie was a huge hit as always, everyone adored him

What is it about a guy in a stuffed suit that fascinates kids?  Look at him all mesmerized

That's Jason, he's probably the biggest Charlie fan and Charlie adores him.  He's that guy that kids just love.

Ho Hum, has the game started yet?

This is Beau's wife Melanie.  Last year on Matt's birthday she fed Charlie doughnuts (gasp, you know how crazy I am about his food) and he ended up throwing up said doughnuts all over birthday-boy-daddy.  Although I have lightened up a bit with Charlie's food, it's become a running joke.  Melanie just loves to torture me by stuffing anything and everything down Charlie's throat.  Peanuts, popcorn, doughnuts, cotton candy, you name it.  Well, no throwing up this year, he was in heaven.

Feeding Charlie peanuts from the shell

mmmm...these taste just like peanut butter!

Oh my gosh, no joke, we spent two hours with this lady at Kohls.  We were buying B some clothes and she was buying her granddaughter some clothes.  We were both sitting outside the dressing room commenting on each other's children and yeah and naying things and the couple show up at the BBQ.  The grandpa works at ABC and they sat right in front of us.  What a small world.

He kept doing this over and over after he saw everyone doing it for T-Shirts

GO T-BONES!

He was such a good sport
