April 7, 2009 -- Red Sox vs. Tampa Bay
Not long after we moved into our ward, we found out that our Bishop and his wife have season tickets to the Red Sox. We secretly were hoping that they would invite us to a game sometime this season but were blown away when they invited us to opening day! It was supposed to be on a Monday but was rained out so we went on Tuesday with Sister K and her sister. We had a fabulous time and are so grateful for such generous friends.
From the pictures below you can see that seats were pretty amazing. We were behind home plate, probably 25 rows back. We had a great view and luckily, it was a great game. Fenway Park really can't be beat, Senator Kennedy threw out the opening pitch, there was a flyover, the Easter bunny was there, we didn't freeze or get rained on, and the Red Sox won!
I've even found myself becoming a bit of a Red Sox fan. It's nice to live somewhere where the team wins at least some of their games (sorry Nationals). I'm sure if we live here very long, the baby will grow up being a Sox fan. We've even bought him his first Red Sox clothing. And, speaking of clothing, I must say that the shirt my mom and I found for me to wear to the game was quite cute! Another pregnant woman sitting near us told me she had looked everywhere for a maternity shirt but didn't find one. (If you can't see it in the top picture, it has a cute baseball on the belly that says "Future Fan.")

YAY!!! I have been waiting for ages for this post :) I'm so jealous (obviously) but so glad that you were able to expernience the best ballpark in the country on opening day! Wow. And, I love that shirt too! So cute. Of course your little one will have to be a Red Sox fan - and there's nothing wrong with that! Looks like you guys had an amazing time. And, I love your hair cut, btw!
