Luke's 1st Cubs Game

Ready to go into the stadium




The fam and my sister Katie

Blake and I were sitting around a few weeks back and decided that we needed a family day out together so we decided we'd take the boys to a Cubs game. Chase has gone twice before with Blake and done awesome so we thought we'd roll the dice with both of them. Who knew that it was going to be 98 degrees outside when we bought the tickets???
We ended up heading to my sister's new apartment before the game, which happens to be just a few blocks from Wrigley. We hung out for a little bit with Katie and her roommate and stepped out into the heat for the afternoon. For being such a hot day, the boys did great. The Cubs however, didn't. The game was painful and disappointing. Luke could have cared less (he clapped when people around us clapped but we were surrounded by Phillies fans so that didn't work) but Chase kept asking if the score had changed, which of course we answered with a "no." We did stay to see the Cubs get there first hit of the day but left early because nap time had already past and the heat was making some little ones cranky. Despite the game, we had a great time together.
