Rancho Cucamonga Quakes

The Quakes are a Triple A baseball team and ever since they Quakes built their stadium, The Epicenter, my family has been going to games. For the last 10 years my dad's company has had a Quakes Day and for as long as I can remember we have been going. Since I moved away I have even happened to make it back to the games 3 or 4 times. The last time we went to the game I was pregnant with Porter so this was official his first time going to a game. Since my sister Lacy and her family live in CA now we had a big group this year.


When we first got there we were taking lots of pictures of everyone so we could blog and scrapbook the event. Sam hates getting his picture taken so everytime the camera pointed in his direction he would make this Elvis face. This is my new favorite picture of Sam, it really shows his personality and dislike for pictures.








There are two dinosaur mascots, Tremor and Aftershock (everything is very well themed). Porter and Ruby loved the dinosaurs and Porter wanted to meet them so I tracked the dinosaurs down for him. After getting his picture taken with both dinosaurs he decided that Aftershock (the younger looking dinosaur) was his favorite. Poor gentle giant Parker was terrified of the dinosaurs and didn't even want me yelling at them as I tried to get them to come to us.

After the game their were fireworks and I took lots of pictures trying to mess with the camera to get the best possible pictures. The fireworks were better then our city's 4th of July fireworks. They were so close that they were much bigger. Our city shoots their fireworks from far away and tries to get everyone as far away as possible. My house is closer to the fireworks then where the city tells everyone to go to watch, anyway back to the game.



We had a ton of fun again this year! I was so glad that it worked out that I was in town for the game.
