Taking the oath |
We actually got a Luxury Suite in order to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Our anniversary is actually the 13th, but that's a week day and we wanted to share this experience with our friends.
First pitch |
So we got to witness people taking their oath to join the military, the Navy band performing and military throwing out the first pitch. And to top off the awesomeness of the evening? Fireworks!!!
So we got our own box with a balcony, which was great. We could sit in air conditioning or sit out on the balcony and enjoy the game. It had rained earlier that day so it did get kind of muggy. Something you may notice with a few of the photos I took. Foggy lens.
Plus we ordered food and beer so that no one was hungry. Hot dogs, popcorn, nachos and cookies.
YUM!
And don't forget the yummy beer!
It was a great combination of people. And we were so glad that they could come out and celebrate with us!
Some knew each other from other groups that I'm in or they lived next to us or they work with Jim. So we felt it was a great mix!
Wow that was a bit of a ramble there wasn't it?
Good food. I don't think anyone walked away hungry.
Good drinks. And no one drove under the influence. We are responsible people!
Silly Jim with buddy Terri |
Sweet Caroline... dum dum dum |
And a great game!
Who could ask for more?
And of course there were a few of us who had had enough to drink to sing along with some of the songs the ball field played.
And the game ended with a fantastic display of fireworks.
We were definitely pleased with the way this evening went.
So much so that we just may do it again next year some time.
And just so you can see how happy we were I've added a photo that a pal of ours snapped for me that night.
Bonus photo! The happy couple! |
