Come on Cubbies!!!

As you all know, our children have inherited our (mostly Ed's) love of the Chicago Cubs. It wasn't hard, as both our families are filled with die-hard Cub fans. But as anyone who's been listening to or watching the games the past couple of days has been sorry to hear that we're in a three game losing streak (can you really call that a streak?), the worst of which was loosing the home opener yesterday. In order to give some moral support to our friends at the Friendly Confines, the kids dressed up in their Cubbie blues (and pinks) today (courtesy of Suzie). It didn't help the Cubs win, unfortunately, but it lent itself to some cute photos, so without further ado . . .

Lenny joins Faye in a relaxing afternoon of baseball.









Did I say relaxing? "Come on, Cubbies!" Faye says, "You're tanking and it's only the first inning! We need some hats, so we can get our rally-caps on!"



"Can you believe this, Lenny?"







"Listen, Faye! It's the bottom of the ninth, but they've finally scored some runs!"





"Oh, well, there's always the next game. See you here tomorrow at 1:20, Lenny!"
