Baseball Opening Day - March 2

Here in Sugar Land, baseball opening day is celebrated with the kids dressing up in their uniforms, marching in a parade, having a first pitch ceremony, and getting their team pictures taken.  Brady was super excited to get to participate this year.  Here he is in his Braves uniform.
Eli as a member of the A's.

Each team also makes a banner to march behind.  Here is Eli with his team's banner.

 Brady was given #2 like Derek Jeter who plays for the Yankees, and Eli got to choose his number.  He chose 40 since that was his dad's number. :)
 It was quite chilly that March morning.  They shared my jacket to help keep themselves warm.
