A Nats fan is born!

As many of you who read this blog already know, the Stevensons are big time Braves fans so when they were looking to pick up tickets to a game we were all ready to take Rachel to her first encounter with our nation's past time. Unfortunately it was raining when we arrived at the stadium so the game was delayed for a little over an hour and we were happy when it finally started even though all the cheering woke Rachel up from her nap. She was entertained for the first couple of innings then decided that her dad needed a different view of the field so we spent the next several inning hanging out behind expensive seats with all the other parents that brought their younglings along with them (by that I mean babies not young Jedi's). Rachel's favorite part was when they had the presidents race round about the 5th inning of the game. She was absolutely captivated by the massive craniums of our founding fathers as the raced around the field. Don't remember if Tom or Abe won (and yes, I realize that Lincoln was not officially a founding father), you'll have to ask Rachel about it some time. The Nats got destroyed by the Braves and all in all it was a fun day. We restrained ourselves from buying a box of Krispy Kreme donuts from a street vendor on the way home though one person in our group got a killer deal on a unofficial, official Nat's hat. (looking back I wish I would have used the word Nats more in this post). And now for the part everyone wants to see anyways, the pictures:

Rachel and dad, GO Coug...I mean Nats!

This is the "I've had just about enough of this silliness" face.
