Photo of the Week 25 of 39 -- Seven

Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez wears the number 7 on the Texas Rangers baseball team. We got to go see the last nighttime home game of the season last Saturday the 26th. The Rangers won 15 - 3 and had an 11 run 5th inning! It was so fun! Hubby went with me. It was his first time to see a grand slam live and in person. We are still in the running for the playoffs, but the magic number is only two. Regardless of if my Rangers end up in the playoffs or not, they've had a wonderful season and I've loved every minute of this year. Next year will be even more fun, I know!

Next week's theme is "Still Life".

Welcome Home Pudge!!!

If you are a Texas Rangers baseball fan, you are a happy camper right now. Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez is back with the Rangers as of Tuesday! He's a veteran catcher and one hell of a ball player. I love to see him throw someone out as they attempt to steal second! He's one of my all time favorite ball players (along with Rusty Greer) and I'm just thrilled to have him back on my favorite team.

He'd been gone for about 7 years, I think. Playing for other teams. During his absence, I got this Pudge bobble head on eBay. It kept my smiles coming to bobble his little head and think of all the great plays he'd made for us in the past while I kept my fingers crossed that he'd someday be back with us and making them again. Now, he is!

My only complaint about the bobble head is that's too heavy to attach to my car dashboard. I'd love that.
