Day 9: Oakland A's game

                                                                                                 August 8, 2012

We woke up early and left the hotel in Modesto and headed towards the Coliseum to see the A's take on the Angels.  Of course you know who we were cheering for.  The plan was for me and Sariah to go to the A's side for signatures and the boys to go to the Angels side.  Sariah and I were very successful in getting the signatures, the boys were not, I was told that putting Sariahs cute face out there would get us signatures and it worked.  We proceeded to watch an almost 4 hour game the final score was 9-8 with the A's winning.  It was a great game.  It was funny during the game Sariah had to go Potty 13 times, saw her uncle Bradley in a plane flying over us twice and talked about her Grandma Abbott taking care of her while I took care of Tim four times.  It always amazes me how random she is!!   We ended up being a little on the warm end when we thought going into it that we would be cold.  We checked into the hotel about a 2 blocks away and collapsed for the night, we ordered take-in and watched the Olympics.  It turned out to be our best nights stay on the road so far, with everyone sleeping through the night.  It turned out to be a really fun day.
