Let's Go Nats!

This weekend we went took the girls to their first ever baseball game! D got some free tickets to the game (Nats vs. Orioles - aka the Battle of the Beltway) and I decided that it should be a family outing. So we loaded up and headed to the game - amidst great concerns, mine, over the weather as it was supposed to rain and apparently not all stadiums come with a roof. But alas, we packed ponchos and rain coats and were ready for anything. Fortunately it turned out that our seats were actually under the cover!! Hooray! (though the weather gear was needed for our walk back to the car!)

The girls were very excited about the game - Audrey kept saying all morning that she "loves baseball." The game was a success and we stayed until midway through the sixth. They both really enjoyed the popcorn and the racing of the Presidents. Brooke kept talking about how she wanted to see "more runners" Here is our game chronicled in pictures:


D and the girls outside the ballpark - the Nats are pretty awful, which explains the lack of crowd in the picture.

Me and Audrey - our family was one of the few not dressed in red or orange. Next time we will dress more appropriately.
