The Big Bang

A new tradition of the Pates (2nd year running) is to beat the crowd by going to a local minor league game on the 4th of July (this year it fell on the 3rd) for the post game fireworks. Caden's first show went well, even though I can't be sure he still has all of his hearing. The lovely girl with us is my cousin Kaitlyn who will be staying with us for a while. As you might have picked up, her name is awfully similar to Caden's, so I am using this opportunity to try to get Janelle to call him by his much cooler name "Crusoe" (2 syllables).
