Last week, we took Mia to her first Braves game. She was so excited! She has been asking to go for quite awhile now, so we decided to get some cheap seats and head on down to Turner Field. Here are the girls just before we left; Lily was showing Mia how to do the chop!
We loved that the great pitcher Phil Niekro's number is outside the stadium so each girl could pose by her age.
We had to get in and get Mia a hat. We had purchased one for Lily when we went with Mr. and Mrs. Worrell in May, and Mia really wanted her own hat. It has a little "a" on it and several flowers; she loves it.
We had to stop for face painting too. The girls always love this. Lily choose a "baseball girl."
Mia picked a baseball. They both looked so cute!
Guest Relations gave us this certificate for Mia's first visit to Braves County. I couldn't get the picture to rotate but notice in the bottom right of the certificate, it says the name is "Superhero Mia." She once again introduced herself that way!
We were all glad Bama was able to come too!
Ready for the game to get started.
No Braves game is complete without lemonade soft serve.
We hung around in our seats until the end of the 7th, and then we headed over to the back of the stadium to get a birds-eye view of the field and let the girls see a few more fun parts of Turner Field. They loved these huge Coke Adirondack chairs!
We convinced the girls to go run the base too. Mia loved it and wanted to do it again even though Lily wouldn't go with her. Here she is crossing the base. She has said multiple times "running the bases" was her favorite part of the game.
Ryan took this picture at some point during the game, and then played with it with his phone's software. We both love it! It seems to truly capture the sheer happiness of the girls which is something I will always treasure.
