Our Royall Family: First Family Baseball Game

We ended Michael's birthday by going to the Cardinals game. This is also the first time Emma has been to a Cardinals game, but you better believe with Michael being her dad, this won't be the last game she goes to. I see us going to many games in the future!

You never know what the weather will be like when you purchase the tickets and its still kind of a guess until game time, especially as the weather changes so frequently in St. Louis. For this game, the temperature still remained very high, even at the start of an evening game. We were hoping that by picking an evening game, the temperatures would be cooling down, but they certainly did not tonight. At least, we didn't have rain. And since we did have the very last row in the stadium, we were able to get a breeze which helped keep us cool.

I think Emma did really well for her first Cardinals game. She handled the heat pretty good, which also means that she might do well on a family vacation to a beach! Its hard for us to sit still throughout the entire game so I can only imagine what its like for a one year old. Hopefully we will be able to experience more Cardinal games (in person) with her this year. But if not in person, you better believe we will be watching all of the Cardinal games from the comfort of our house! Go Cards!

What a pretty background.

Emma was excited that there was a pole for her to play with right at our seat; however, Michael was not thrilled that the pole went right between his legs.
