Our First Trip to Fenway

We got a little surprise on Friday. Ron called to tell us that they were coming to take us to a Red Sox game at Fenway. The next day Grandpa, Rusty, Rick, and Ron (my Mom's dad and brothers) all showed up at our place. We enjoyed spending the afternoon with them. It was our first time going to a Major League Game. We both really enjoyed the food we got.
We got really good seats right above the bullpen thanks to Grandpa being in a wheelchair. We were looking at the sun most of the game, but we only got a little sunburned.
The Red Sox beat the Brewers 5-3.
This was some guy who kept running from next to the bullpen over to the Sox dugout and then back again really fast. We never figured out what he was doing, but the crowd sure loved him. Everyone was laughing and cheering him on.
Ron, Me, Bob, Rusty, and Rick at the top of the tower.

We had a little time to kill before the game so we went to the Mt. Auburn Cemetery and climbed the tower to get a good view of the city. Grandpa wasn't feeling up to the stairs so he stayed down below and enjoyed a slightly less bird's eye view. We also went to the Temple for a quick photo op. Thanks for the fun day guys!

Baseball is one thing I haven't ever gone to see... I remember Emm played softball, but I don't know if I've ever been to a full game before... How fun! And where's Fenway? (Apologies for the uncultured question...)
