(my) first phillies game


Dear Philly Phanatic - You are cute, but... driving?

Those announcers from TV


Color love


A hit or a strike?



my personal favorite part of the game: graham slam




our favorite part of the game: watching the Phillies win it from a big screen 
on the walk back to the car . . . after wondering & wondering if they'd win

A few weeks ago my friend Lisa called with some exciting news. Two free Phillies tickets, a game that's in the middle of the day, and no one to take them. A few phone calls later, Bill and I were rushing down 95. [Major thanks to Jodi for hanging out with Grace so we could have this date!]

We had great seats for this- great to see the actual players - made the game much easier to understand & follow . . . The culture of being at a baseball game is hilarious. You walk into this huge place, and see nothing but red. And the fans see red when the Phillies don't win. So I was thankful that they pulled it together at the end :-)
