Batter Up!

Yesterday, we went to Fenway Park. Noah had gotten tickets to the Futures at Fenway games for Father's Day, and we couldn't have had a better day! First, we got to see the Lowell Spinners win in fine fashion, and then that was followed up by a great game by the Pawtucket Red Sox winning as well! Our little Zoe was there in fine fashion in a Red Sox onesie, her baseball cap, and a smile to light up the park. She thoroughly enjoyed it all, looking at the game (sorta), watching the people around us (lots), loved the clapping (lots), and danced to all the music played. She was wonderful! She napped a couple of times (can you believe that?) but just enough to recharge her for more baseball watching.

We couldn't have asked for better seats. When I ordered the tickets, I picked "best available". That gave me $20 seats....good deal, huh? I mean for 2 games, right? Well, it got even better when I looked up the face value for these tickets....$90! That's right! We were sitting 17 rows from the field on the left field side. We were SO close, it was amazing. We watched for foul balls, but only 2 came relatively close to us...I'm sure if this was a Boston Red Sox game, the balls would be flying even more! I don't think we'll ever get to sit that close for a game with the big leaguers!

We had so much fun, the day was perfect, our angel loved it, we've planned to return there again. Anyone want to join us next year?
