okay, first of all- see what i mean about the view? i still cant get enough of the colorado sky. it takes my breath away.
our seats are on the third level, and i LOVE them! one time we sat on the first level, and i didn't enjoy my time nearly as much as i tend to up here. i have a perfect view of home plate, outfield and the score board. that's money.
this was at our very first game together back in late april... or maybe early may. it was whenever the rockies played the braves, and i was super excited to be here. my bf (obviously) is a giant braves fan, and he came decked out head to toe in his braves garb, but i proudly rocked my rockies tshirt and loved EVERY minute of the game! i think it was during the 7th inning that the skies opened, and it began to downpour... hard. so at first we hung around inside, waiting for it to pass. once it became apparent that was probably never going to happen, we decided to make a run for it. well... by "we" i really mean me. i decided we should make a run for it, and so we RAN for blocks and blocks and blocks to the car, and got SOAKED! every inch of our clothing was soaked, and we happily drove home laughing, and giggling and shivering from being so wet!
game 2. it was a saturday day game, and it was hot as hell when we left. i expected to sweat miserably and so i had my little hat on to block my face a bit (being SO close to the sun here, i burn QUICK) and a sun dress to keep me cool. but in true colorado style, the weather changed on a dime, and by the time we arrived at the ball park, it was cloudy and drizzling. i was happy with that though... i would rather have been a little chilly than sweating my ass off. something really fun about this game was that they gave out free cargo tshirts, and i thought that was nice.
game 3. not sure what that face is about, but something ive learned is that you never really know what you're gonna get when you hold a camera up to this guy. anyway, this was a friday evening game, and the weather was actually perfect! from start to finish... it was lovely.
game 4. i hadta steal his hat for a bit because i literally sat there on that upper deck, getting FRIED! by the time this pic was taken, i was hurting pretty bad and clearly decided i should show it in this lovely photo op. lol. this was a sunday day game. i ended up making friends with a fellow burn victim behind me, and borrowing some spf50... thank god i did! after this game, we went to a delicious eatery downtown called marco's pizza. i HIGHLY recommend paying this little spot a visit. it was delish!
game 5. another evening game, and the weather was perfection. no rain, but a light, cool breeze that kinda made my heart go pitter patter. this game was fun cause i was super excited to get this kick ass rockies hat! whoo hoo! ive never had a baseball hat like this before... im quickly becoming a real rockies fan proffessional... clearly. lol.
game 6. and i am happy to report this game was special because it was my first rockies win!!!!!! it was a smashing success and i loved every minute of it! i think we closed out with 10-0, killing the dodgers. to say that i was stoaked to win, would be kind of an understatement... let's just say winning really suits me well. lol.
all in all, id hafta say ive been really blessed to have created so many special and fun memories at the ball park this summer. it's something ive never really done before, and i am so excited to be out there every few weeks. i love the peanuts, the hot dogs, the (mostly) cool breezes, and the memories. we have three more games next month before the season ends, and i really think ill miss coors field this fall/winter.
