America's past-time!

We celebrated the 4th of July at Jared's parents. We had a bbq, swam, and just hung out. I am trying to keep up and post more of Boston and what better time then around the fourth. Boston is full of history and American pride. Probably the most memorable in Jared's eyes and actually right up there in mine was Fenway Park. The oldest baseball field in the major leagues. Jared was talking for weeks before our trip how excited he was about going to Fenway. I apologize because I honestly just remember blah,blah,blah! I was trying to be excited with him. We have season tickets to the D-backs so i figured it was just like going to ANOTHER game. Boy was I wrong. We got to Fenway an hour early to walk around. I was amazed that it was already packed with fans. We did change our attire but don't worry, they are in the American League so we are not cheating on the D-backs!! You could just smell the history in the field (or was that b.o.?) The stadium is quite a bit smaller than the any other field which makes it very intimate. The fans were amazing. You didn't need the kiss cam, relish races, or fancy resturants to make the crowd yell. We did the wave 4x strong around the stadium, talked with people around us, and lost our voices from cheering and singing.If you didn't sing Take Me Out to the Ballgame and Sweet Caroline you were the oddball. Everyone I mean everyone was singing, cheering, and standing. What an expirience. I have a video although it doesn't give it justice. I am trying to upload it but am not figuring that out. Don't you worry, when I do I will make sure to post it! Even if you don't watch baseball or even like it what a THRILL!!

Everyone stood for the entire 9th inning. NO ONE left early. And you would have thought it was the world series the way the crowd roared when they won 2-1. Whew! what a night!
