Washington Nationals

All summer I've been wanting to go to a Washington Nationals game, then finally Sunday we were able to go!! I was so pumped to go. Not only was it McKaila's first major league baseball game, but I love to watch me some baseball!! I've always been more of a New York Yankees fan and of coarse a Detroit Tigers fan, but getting the chance to see any kind of major league baseball game is incredible.

As soon as I woke up, I looked at my phone to see what the weather was going to be like for the day. All week, the forecast looked great. 80's partly sunny. Perfect day for a baseball game around here. But when I looked at my phone it was the opposite of a partly sunny day. 60% chance of rain. GREAT!!!! 

We still headed to the Metro station, so we could take the Metro to the stadium. Of coarse, the moment we show our tickets, it starts to rain. Awesome. Game was suppose to start at 1:30, so it was about noon when we arrived to the stadium.

Literally minutes before the rain hit
The Presidents came out to greet people during the rain delay

McKaila was having fun talking and playing with all the little kids around us during the rain delay

Due to the rain, the first pitch wasn't thrown until 4:00. By then, we were more then ready to sit down and watch some baseball!! McKaila of coarse, fell asleep shortly after the first pitch, but after about 45 minutes she was ready to watch some baseball!

Got to support the umpires!!! Love you dad, wish you were here!!!

Go Nats!!!

Nationals WIN!!!!!!!!!

Even though it wasn't a whole lot of fun waiting around for the rain to stop, we made the best of it!! Hanging out with family and friends made it all worth it!! 

Go Nats Go!!!
