Braves Baseball


Great view from our seats!!
Hanging out with mommy and daddy!

Checking out the game... "GO BRAVES!!"
Clapping for a great play!

Marlee found her souviner!
"I LOVE my Braves bear!!"
Just got done running the bases with daddy...
time to play in the dirt...
who needs baseball when there's dirt to play with?


Time for a water break

Today we took Marlee to her 2nd Braves game! Her first one was last summer-she was only a little over 2 months old! Today's game was an afternoon one, and if you've ever been to an afternoon game-you'll know what I'm talking about when I say it was HOT! Ever since my experience of working at the Braves Stadium a few summers ago, I try to avoid day games as much as possible because of the extreme heat and excessive sweating (I mean glowing)! Kendall's dad got tickets from work, so I agreed to go since I knew that the seats were really good (18 rows from homeplate)! When we got there, it was already in the 4th innning (I love 1 hit games)! We enjoyed our seats for the next few innings~Marlee loved it! She sat on Kendall's lap just taking everything in! Whenever people would clap or cheer, she would clap right along with them! By the time the next 2 or 3 innings had finished, we were ready to find some air conditioning, so off to the Braves souviner store we went! Marlee got a cute Braves cap and a really soft teddy bear that she was carrying around the store! Daddy couldn't resist getting that for her! After that, we took her up to Sky Field where they have a basepath that kids can run on. Kendall and Marlee "ran" down it together. Too Cute! Marlee also enjoyed just sitting and playing in the dirt! We finished watching the game in the 755 club-where the seats were just outside the airconditioning and in the shade. Once the bottom of the 9th rolled around, we decided to go ahead and leave-and it was a good thing that we did, because by the time we got to our car, it poured rain! A great way to end such a HOT day! I'm sure there will be a few more Braves games for us this season-hopefully night games!!
