Hey guys! This week has been so busy busy busy! Projects to finish, a paper to write, another assignment to finish, and a test to study for! But it’s slowing down just a bit- one of the projects is finished, the paper and the assignment are done, and I made a 94 on my test! Huzzah!
Guess what we did this past weekend? We went to the World Series!!! (or as some of my fav DJs on the sports station I listen to on the radio are calling it… the World Effing Series!)
You guys I LOVE baseball!! And I also love the Rangers! I’ve been going to games for as long as I can remember. And I’ve honestly never cared that the Rangers hadn’t been to the World Series. They’re my team win or lose. But It’s still super exciting that they’ve gone to the World Series two years in a row!
We couldn’t afford to go to any of the playoff games last year, but this year I knew that I had to get tickets as soon as they went on sale. So I was online the second they went on sale. I stood in e-line for 4 hours waiting to buy my tickets. And as soon as I printed those bad boys out I was so happy. I think I smiled the whole rest of the day!
So on Sunday we got there super early so that we wouldn’t have to fight traffic since there was also a Cowboys game and the stadiums are right next door to each other. So we picked up some food at whole foods and had a little picnic!
You guys! Whole Foods has this Chia bread and it’s freaking AMAZING!!! I got the veganize me sandwich and it was so freaking good! Next time I get it I’m going with mustard though- I’m not a big mayo fan.
It’s not a picnic without a cookie!! (or 3 or 4, haha!)
While we munched we listened to the Cowboys game on the radio. I don’t like football so that was pretty torturous for me. At least I had cookies. 
Then they opened the gates to the stadium, so in we went!
Watched the guys warm up a bit…
Then headed up to our seats with a beer in hand!
Our seats weren’t as high up as I thought they were going to be.
This guy was pretty hardcore with his camera!
National Anthem time! (Zooey Deschanel was pretty amazing!)
The game was AWESOME!!!!! Rangers won! 4-0. And Napoli was of course a total badass! And Holland’s pitching was on fire! (P.S. my prediction from as soon as I knew they were going has been Rangers in 6. I’m sticking with that one! Though I wouldn’t turn my nose up at Rangers in 7, lol!)
These are the faces of two very happy Rangers fans!
GO RANGERS!
World F’ing Series!?!? I am BEYOND JEALOUS!! You lucky girl!!
I’m a huge baseball fan, so I know how exciting that must have been!
I wonder if my Whole Foods has the chia bread… I’ll have to look for it!
It was so fun and exciting! The ultimate of games for a baseball fan!
oh my goodness i cant believe you went to the game!! i sure hope they kick some booty tonight!
That looks like such a good time!
We had a blast!!!
Even though I made fun of you for it slightly, I’m glad you bought world series tickets and went 🙂 Matt is actually about to leave right now, at midnight, to drive to STL for game 7. I’m slightly sad I can’t go – but looking forward to the sleep instead 🙂
I’m torn. The past few years I’ve felt myself cheering more and more for the Rangers rather than the Sox. I grew up a Rangers fan and there is pretty much no way I’ll ever live in Boston again, so the appeal of the Red Sox is becoming lost on me. Plus I have much less time for baseball and let’s face it, it’s way easier to cheer for the team in your town than follow an out of town team. As much as I want the Rangers to win a world series, I also know that I want Matt to be happy and he REALLY REALLY wants the cardinals to win. So I’m sort of staying out of this matchup and just trying to remain as neutral as possible!
You were so close with your prediction of Rangers in 6….WHAT A GAME! Let’s hope you nailed with Rangers in 7! GO RANGERS!!
Oh me too! That game made me insane- we totally could have won that. SO many stupid mistakes! RANGERS in 7!!!!
What a heartbreaker! All I have to say is UGH!
