Last night we did Star Wars night at the Memphis Redbirds' baseball game. It was a lot of fun - more than I expected! We took pics with guests and Darth Vader threw out the opening pitch.

Star Wars in Concert

It was awesome! When we got to the forum we hadn't been told where to go, so we spent a while walking back and forth trying to just get in!
