BRAVES home opener

WOOHOO!!!!!!!

Baseball Season has arrived... and it couldn't get any better than the home opener!!!!

Monday after work my friends and I went to the game... Atlanta Braves vs. Chicago Cubs.

The minute we got inside of the ballpark you could feel the energy of all the excited fans.

With it being Bobby Cox's final season to coach you could imagine the feeling of the crowd being his last home opener!!!

(Timmy and I)

WE got the cheaper $10.00 tickets at the top of the stadium... but believe it or not the seats were not bad.


I could see everything.

The only thing that would have made it better would have been able to sit in the shade.


It was 89 degrees and sitting in the sun with NO breeze- it was freaking HOT!!!!
(my legs and arms were RED!)

Unfortunately, Simon had to work and was unable to make it to the game. He was SO jealous!!!

We have a new player on the Braves, Jason Heyward... he was incredible!


His first time up to bat in his major league career he hits a homerun! It was awesome.

Next up... Brian McCann hits a homerun... The braves were on it!

I looked up during the game and I could see McCann's Cans.
.


If you read my blog from my weekend in Chattanooga where we met these guys from Canton... well, thats them! They are McCann's Cans- it was crazy to see them again only 2 sections over.



The Sun began to set and it was not as miserably hot as before and it was time to go.

The Final Score:


Braves 16 / Cubs 5

I am so excited about the Season... I LOVE the Braves games.

(Jamie, Me, Cheri, Andrew)

Simon and I already bought our tickets to the FINAL home game of the season... Bobby Cox's FINAL game to coach at Turner Field!!!
I CANT WAIT!!!!

You can catch me in front of the tv or up at the games all summer cheering on the Braves.

Here's to a fabulous sport, a fabulous game, and fabulous fans!

GOOOOOOOOOOO BRAVES!!!!!
