Go Sox!

Yesterday was Ella's first Red Sox game, and boy was she ready! She got decked out in her official Red Sox outfit and hat and got ready for the trip into the Big City. We thought Boston would love their (in our opinion) cutest new fan.



Mom and Dad stopped along the way for hot dogs to get them in the right mood for the game, then it was on to Fenway.

Ella had a ball at the game.



She met Wally the Green Monster.





She even has her picture taken with Jason Varitek (sort of).



She had a great view of the game and kept herself busy for a while watching all the people both on the field, and off. As usual, she made a lot of new friends. And while she's too young yet to enjoy a lot of what Fenway has to offer (no Fenway Franks this time!), it was quite an exciting day for her.



Ella was about ready to fall asleep by the sixth innning (with the Sox down 4-o), so we decided to make our way back to the car. We took a bike taxi ride to the garage where we parked, which I think was Mom's favorite part of the day.



Then, we listened to the rest of the game on the radio (of course, right after we left, the Sox rallied to win 5-4). On the way home we stopped for dinner with Mike and Lisa.



We had yummy Indian food, and Ella had squash, green beans, eggplant, cataloupe, Cheerios, rice, and, or course, milk. This kid sure loves to eat!

It was a long day, but a fun one for all of us. We can't wait for Ella's second Red Sox game!
