Take me out to the ball game!!

It is finally spring, which means...BASEBALL SEASON!!! I know its probably a little weird but I really do love me some baseball!! Tim is not quite as happy or excited for baseball season but his mind was changed a little this last week when I was able to take him to his first Major League Baseball game! My boss had 2 tickets for the Diamondback vs. Pirates game. Since she could not go, she offered them to me...and who am I to tell my boss no? So, they gave us 2 tickets to a game I was dying to watch( ok dying might be a little dramatic but I really wanted to watch) I called Tim and , being the good husband that he is, decided it would be fun to go. So as soon as Tim got home, we took off to the game!!
Some nice man and his cute little boy took this picture of Tim and I sitting on the huge baseball outside the stadium.
We took this one about the 4th inning...when we started to dominate the game by 4 runs!! This is us being super happy about the lead over the other team!
But not long after our happy picture, we decided it was time for a weird picture! This was the result! hahaha



We sat 9 Rows from the field! I HAVE NEVER SAT THAT CLOSE TO ALL THE PLAYERS!! We could literally see everything. I was so excited so so so excited!!!! The people that sat next to us made the game really fun, they were ahooting and ahollerin all sorts of funny things. This lovely picture is of Co-jack ( Connor Jackson)!! Diamondbacks outfield heart-throb! haha I have to admit that he is one of my 2 favorite players on the Arizona team.. and not cuz he is good looking, just that he is incredible as a player! He caught some intense pop flys where he dove head first, rolled, and then held up the ball.
Tim had always laughed at my the joy I find in going to baseball games, but after going to one himself, he found a little love for the game too! He commented on how much different baseball was in real life than to the tv. He said he would go again with me, because real life baseball was way more exciting than anything he had watched on television...MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!! haha
After 6 innings, we had to leave early because Tim had a basketball game for church.... and not just any game, a preliminary for the championships. Our team started off a little rusty this season, but the boys have played very well and are now in the championships...Stake basketball is intense, its fun to see Tim so happy about a game. He does so well when he plays!!I think I am learning to love all sorts of sports! GO CRISMON WARD!! WOO HOO!

  2. How fun! I love going to Dbacks games. You guys are so cute. And that's awesome that you are liking sports! I need to create an interest in them myself because I just don't care for them now! I am glad my hubs isn't a sports freak either though :)
