These days, with kids, the requirements are quite different &#8211; a bouncy house, face-painting and balloon twisting are key &#8211; and Fink certainly delivered when he invited us to his company&#8217;s party at AT&#038;T Park. The event marked our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zoe.browdy.net\/?p=7555\">second time<\/a> at the ballpark in recent months, but this time around we practically had the place to ourself. And among the highlights: Q, Fink and Zoe batting behind home plate (with their name on the scoreboard), and the girls running around the bases and meeting Lou Seal.<\/p>\n<p>No, there was no hot-tub, live band or keg &#8211; but we still had a fabulous day.
