Go Mets!

This year I recieved four field level tickets to a Mets baseball game from one of my vendors at work who we spend a lot of money with. So this Saturday we went to see the game as a family. We figured Aubree would only last a couple of innings but she made it through the whole game. We started the night off with a trip to Arby's in Queens which is the closest Arby's we have. You wouldn't think that would be much of a treat but we loved it! Yummy Beef n' Cheddar, mmmm. Then the game started at 7pm and we had a blast. Unlike the previous two mets games I've been to over the years, the Mets are acually winning this year and this game was a pleasure to watch. They were behind halfway through the game then the Mets started hitting home runs and killed the Phillies 11 to 5. It was very exciting for the girls, and we really got into the spirit of the game with the rest of the fans. My silly camera died after three pictures (dumb battery!) so you will have to forgive the quality.
We got to sit in reserved field seats that were just behind the dugout of the Mets. Isabelle bought herself a pretzel and we brought orange cream shakes from Arby's with us. Isabelle really wanted a ball but I could not convince the players to throw us one, albeit we came close.

Sounds like a good time. We went to a little St. George baseball game years ago. It was really boring. I am glad Aubrey made it through. Maybe it is more exciting when it is a real professional team with lots of people around to keep little ones entertained.
