Opening Day + Eggs!

Our family helped kicked off the 2012 Lakeland Flying Tigers season at Joker Marchant Stadium on April 7th. The Knowles' Family also joined us! We all rooted for the home team and enjoyed a 5-2 victory over the Tampa Yankees.
Skyler & Clayton joined the Subway Tigers Den Kids Club. It's for fans ages 3-13. For a $10 membership fee, they receive a t-shirt, membership card, free admission to all Saturday home games, and they even feed our little tots by providing hot dogs and drinks. Sky likes watching sports and she cheered on the Tigers. 

After the game, Publix sponsored a special Easter Egg Hunt on the field. Our Princess brought her purple Easter basket and was ready for the action!
Over 20,000 candy and toy filled eggs were scattered across the field. The hunt was open to children under 14 years old. It was well organized and the children were grouped into age categories for safety.
 Here's our excited and experienced "egg hunter". The Easter Bunny even made a special appearance.
 Waiting for the "go-ahead" with Clayton... 

 And off they go!

Skyler even greeted and hugged the Easter Bunny! Such a difference from last week's encounter! Do wish I had captured her happy moment with Mr. Bunny. It was a high-5'in time!

After the egg hunt, we all enjoyed the fireworks extravaganza.The Flying Tigers are a Class A Affiliate of the Detroit Tigers. We do look forward to many more Saturday home games this summer.
