For someone who often pretends she is playing in a go-go (baseball) game, my daughter really didn't pay much attention to what was happening on the field when we took her to her first Pittsburgh Pirates' homegame. It was the last game of the season, and a toasty 79 degrees in the stands! But the Pirates actually WON, and they even hit a couple homeruns, so we were able to see some fireworks! Best of all were the shots I got of my 3 year old, eating ice, wearing my too-big baseball cap, crawling through the pirate ship, and smiling with her mom and dad before the game. She loved the pirate music and the players turned into pirates that they showed up on the Jumbo tron. She ate the meat and tomatoes out of my gyro, loved having a huge pretzel, and made her dad and I crack up when she threw her arm up in the air and yelled to get the lemonade vendor's attention! These are the memories that I didn't get captured on film. But through the power of the pen, they will be remembered!
Tip of the Day: Save your tickets and put them on the page next to, but not touching your pictures.
Scrap Happy!
I just went back and read this, and I'm so glad I wrote this down! I don't have any of this written on the actual Pirate's page, because I couldn't remember it! See, I told you that I have a terrible memory! But because I wrote this blog, I can now go back and journal this special day in my daughter's album. Journaling ia so important!
