Ducks Game!!!

This weekend my husband and I took our daughter to her very first baseball game. We were invited by our friend, who won box seats through a raffle at work to the Long Island Ducks game. His family was there and my sister and her family also attended the game. We knew that Julie wouldn't actually be interested in the game. We just wanted to introduce her to the whole experience of watching a baseball game at a stadium. She loved everything about it. The hotdogs, the cotton candy, the mascot, the music, and especially the fireworks, although the loud ones scared her. The only thing that could have made this a better experience would have been warmer weather. It was so cold out, but fortunately there was a room right off of our box that was closed in with a nice cozy couch and delicious food for those who wanted to enjoy the game indoors. Even though the Ducks lost, this will be a memory that I willl never forget because not only was it Julie's first time watching a baseball game at a stadium, it was mine too!!
