Take Me Out to the Ballgame!
We had the perfect excuse (spring break for Connor and Graeme) and the perfect weather (sunny 60 degrees), so we took the afternoon off, grabbed Graeme's friend Aidan and headed to Camden Yards for the first day game of the season. The Orioles had opened the 2009 season with two big wins against the hated Yankees and we were hoping to cheer them on to a series sweep, but that was not to be. Lots of defensive miscues led to an 11-2 beating by the Bronx Bombers and we headed home with the first one in the loss column. Still smiling though because it was our first time to see the Yankees... and because there are 159 O's games left this year! We'll be back!
Thanks so much for taking Aidan with you! It looks like you had a great day despite the loss.
ReplyDeleteNow is when it is proper to use the term "PONED", no?
ReplyDeleteBut look at those happy kids...and momma!
No. PONED is not to be used for one's own team!
ReplyDeleteSo so so fun. With the only two major league baseball teams in Texas at least three and a half hours away, we're happy to watch Trev and Brayden play ball!
ReplyDeleteCan't believe still that you guys can get there like that!! Soooo very much fun; and look at those guys!!! Sometimes the lousy numbers can't negate the good times and that's okay by me!!!! Wish we could have been there, too; will, hopefully, get to a Mariner's game sometime soon! We're going to try to go to the one with the O's; probably be the only ones there yelling for them! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
ReplyDeleteWhat a great thing to do on a beautiful Spring day!! We hope to make it to a game soon ourselves. Let's Go O's!!!!
