We went to the WORLD SERIES!!!!

So, one of the reasons our weekend was so busy was because Kris and I, along with our good friends Kristie and Shaun, went to Game 3 of the World Series on Saturday. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!!! We had so much fun and were very honored to be part of history for the Texas Rangers. Sadly, they did not win the World Series, and it ended up that the only game they won was the one we attended. Regardless, they did a great job.
The stadium with the sign: "It's Time"


Kris and I are more of Astros fans, but we were proud to support our fellow Texas team - and of course we had to get all decked out in our Rangers apparel!

In the stadium from our seats - GREAT seats I might add!







We were 4 rows behind the bull pen, so throughout the game we were able to watch the pitchers warm up. Here is Lewis before the game warming up. He ended up pitching most of the game and did a great job!







Before the game - all the pitchers and coaches in their huddle. One could only hope that they were praying! I thought this was a really cool picture, even though it is a little blurry.





Me and Kristie! Our husbands were nice enough to drag (trust me, they didn't have to drag very hard!!) us along for the is once in a lifetime opportunity!


The closing pitcher, Feliz, warming up.







Feliz was amazing! I love this picture because it tells a lot. First off - look at the right of the sign. It tells his pitching speed - 99 MPH. WOW!! Then if you look closer, it shows that there are 2 balls, 2 strikes and 2 outs in the 9th inning. We are SO CLOSE to winning this game!


And he did it!!!!! He struck that Giant out - WE WON! What an amazing energy in that stadium. I can only imagine what the players were feeling, because we were pretty darn excited!


What a fun and amazing night! Great job Rangers!
