My red socks.

This night began with a walk down Hanover Street. A friend of mine who lived in Boston for a few years, Alisa, gave me the tip to visit Mike's Pastry. Oh my this was a treat indeed. I have to go back to have another cannoli. Yummy in my tummy! I didn't take a picture of the actual dessert because we opened the box up at night in the car. We all enjoyed the tasty dessert.
My mom and dad, with Jess' help, surprised us (sort of) by getting tickets to a Red Sox game! We all were so excited. Andi and Nick stocked up on their Boston gear, they looked like they were true fans. The moments leading up to the first pitch were exciting. Here is Willie walking down one of the streets leading up to Fenway.This is the ticket office. We already had our tickets so we didn't need to stop, I just thought the ticket office looked cool.Here's a bad picture of the Fenway Park sign. Oh the excitement was building up inside!Can't you just feel the butterflies as you are walking up the steps to see the field!!And here is the glorious sight. Yeah. How awesome!This was one of the first and last times we looked at the scoreboard. We sat right under it. This gave us the opportunity to catch a few balls from the home runs we saw. Granted we weren't even close to the home run balls.What a hot dog!! Yeah Parker had a hot dog for dinner, and he loved it. He was really nice and shared with Logan or Dax, can't remember which one it was now. The dog was so big for a two year old.The rain didn't stop us from having a good time. The boys tried catching raindrops in their mouth when it was sprinkling.
Here is a cool picture that Nick took. Most of everyone is in it. My two favorite parts are Andi smiling and Parker getting WAY excited about something. This Red Sox game was SO great. Many cool things happened. We saw three home runs that were eaten up by the Green Monster. One player got hit in the head with a fast ball. I sort of missed that one and they were respectful and didn't show it on the jumbo-tron. I'll mention a few more memorables further down.
Thanks mom for the fun 'surprise.' It was lucky I dressed the boys in the right colors and even in baseball attire. Who knew that's what we were going to do?Lincoln got to be with Grandma nearly the whole game. He sure loves her.My family having a good time at the game. We had to borrow Andi and Nicks new hats to make it look like we were true fans.
Andi and Nick and their boys enjoying the game too.
Parker and his cousins had so much fun playing with each other. They were so excited for the game. I know I have used the word 'excited' about a billion times already but I just can't think of exactly how to describe the awesome feelings we had at the game. During this game we sang 'take me out to the ballgame.' We found a penny smasher and smashed a penny with the Green Monster on it. During the seventh inning we saw a fight against the Blue Jays fans and the Red Sox fans. Okay I didn't see much but various members of my family saw fists being thrown and a chick jumping on someone's back. I did get to see the Blue Jays fans escorted out of the stadium. The rain began picking up and I really thought about staying to sing 'Sweet Caroline' but we all decided to go. Just as we were picking our things up the rain really hit hard and the field was covered up. Yep we never did get to sing. We later found out that the game did continue after the rain stopped and the Red Sox won in the last inning. What a game!!

All the kids were getting tired and Lincoln fell asleep in my moms arms. Thanks mom and dad for giving us such a great time at the ball game!
