A picture is worth 365,000 words

Well, that's just wrong. I didn't realize I hadn't updated in so long. I feel kinda bad now, not that I think many people are still hanging around, but...I'm going to share some photos from Oct. and there's a bunch as we went on vacation. :-) Here we go!

Brian and I headed to Philadelphia to see the Eagles take on the Kansas City Chiefs at the end of September. It was a fairly nice day, though it was kinda wet out. We tailgated a bit with our friend's Mike and his brother Dan in the parking lot before heading into the game. We had nose bleed seats, but we could see the whole field, so it was ok. The Eagles won and we had a really fun day, though long.

After the game. :-) With the field in the back ground. Go Eagles!

The following weekend involved a full two days of baseball. Saturday we headed to Camden Yards to see the Orioles play. Saturday night was Oktoberfest and we scored free Orioles steins (which turned out to be plastic, eh.) and saw a nice O's win. The O's went on to win Sunday as well, keeping them from hitting the 100 loss mark this year. Yea O's!

Well, this is a tad blurry! Guess that's what happens when you forget to zoom out. LOL! I have a habit of zooming in for a photo, then deciding to take a self-portrait...and this is the result. What I just noticed about this photo is we are framing the ground's keeper at CBP very nicely. :-) The Phils won this game, though it meant nothing in the standings overall, they had already clinched the NL East earlier in the month, but it was good to go to a win. And with the Phils win, we were batting 1.000 for the weekend in baseball.

OK, this is kinda cheesy, but I don't care! My beloved Phils are in the World Series and tonight was Game 1. I had class tonight and told my prof I was going to leave at break, but he took break early. Which is disheartening. I said I could stay the latest 8:00 p.m. if I wanted to see first pitch. He thought I should be willing to HEAR first pitch, but uh no. The first time the Phils are in the World Series in 15 years? I want to SEE it! At 8:00 p.m., in the middle of class, he says my name and points to his watch. Ahhh...gotta love the prof who gets it!

I made it home in time for the first pitch, by about a minute. LOL! Awesome game! Cole Hamels is awesome, which is exactly what I expected. There's no better pitcher out there right now. Chase Utley, ahhhh Chase, hit a homerun in the first inning. Loved it! And we held on to win 3-2. Happy about tonight, worried already about tomorrow. Let's go Phils!
