First Red Sox Game...

Today, Alexander went to his first Red Sox game!  He has been to Fenway for his first trip not that long ago but today was for his first Red Sox game - he was very excited!  He wanted to see Wally, Pedroia & Youkilis.

I was hoping to get there early enough for batting practice but parking proved to be a lot busier than I anticipated.  Who would have thought for a day game in the middle of the week?!

Kevin Youkilis' charity was collecting books for kids & need.   We dropped our books off and Alexander was so excited to put them in the box...I don't know if because all of the women were ooohing over how cute he was and how thankful they were or that he got a Youk bracelet.  But it was very sweet.

We got to our seats and he just wanted to sit there and take it all in.  He kept asking what things were and who the different people on the field were.  Here is Alexander right near Pesky Pole!

He was so excited when Wally was on the field!

Alexander was so excited during the game - asking what was going on, who was hitting, and cheering when the Sox made a play or scored.  He also was so intrigued that every time there was a play in the field Pedroia would JUMP high in the air - even if the ball was never hit.

 I kept telling him that we could leave when he wanted and he said we stayed til the end.  That's my boy!

When the game was over (Red Sox lost 5-4), Alexander asked if he could walk around Fenway Park so that's just what we did.  We walked all around - we went into the Souvenir store on Yawkey Way, watched some players (Adrian Gonzalez) get in their cars & leave, and then checked out the Ted Williams statue.

4 Fenway Franks, bag of peanuts,two drinks,  a bat, & a small Wally later - it was an amazing day!
