Take me out to the Ball Game



The Rockies have been on fire for about the last month so we decided we better get in on the action before it becomes impossible to try and get tickets. Mike, Cameron, Elizabeth, and I went to the game on Saturday. We had a blast, Elizabeth loves to be outside so she was in her element, except when the crowd would erupt. Although after she figured out she was safe with me, she would join in clapping.

Nine innings was a bit much for her to sit so we decided to take our first break between the third and fourth innings and go meet Dinger, the mascot!



I was a little bit worried at how she would react, but while we were in line she caught a glimpse and was so excited. She has been loving Barney lately, I guess she sees some resemblance:) she was even lucky enough to get Dinger's autograph!

We did manage to even catch some of the game between walking and looking at the fountains that were able to go off because of a few home runs, water is another favorite of Elizabeths, she thought they were pretty cool.

So, between meeting Dinger and the Rockies getting the win and and the lead in the wild card chase, I'd say we had a great evening. Go Rockies!!
