Go Giants!

Well we did it, we went to our very first Giants game! It was so fun, I love baseball games and Matt and I haven't been to one since we were dating. We went to dinner before the game with Dan, Ashley and Matt's(dan's brother who was at sea for the coast guard) cute wife April. We were even able to find free street parking not too far from the stadium so that was awesome.
PS Don't mind that only my hair is blowing straight up, it was windy...I promise!
Maddie had so much fun at the game. She loved to stand up against the railing to watch and cheer along with the crowd. Her favorite part was when the big orange mascot came out and we could see it (if anyone knows what it is please share with me) from our seats. It was such a beautiful evening and we had great seats. We were right between home plate and first base, and not too high in the nose bleeds. We were just high enough to have a great view of the bay bridge and the bay.
In this picture you can see the sailboats in the background. That was so neat to see, we all agreed it would be so fun to take the boat out, sail around for a bit, then come into the dock and listen to the game on a radio with the real crowd cheering in the background! Someday when we are rolling in the big dough!
PS It was so freezing all night, we had on lots of layers but that didn't cut it. Lucky for us Dan and Ash were there and so prepared with extra blankets and hats. The seventh inning hot chocolate helped out too!! We have such great friends!
