Brad Lidge Is My Idol
Ok seriously, all I have to say is that I just attended the BEST GAME EVER, besides the World Series of course… to quote reader Allison! Seriously, ONLY THE PHILLIES can come back from a 10-3 loss, score 8 runs in ONE (the bottom of the 7th) inning with 1 out, and clinch the game 12-11!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was going to tell you all about the rest of the day but honestly, it’s nothing compared to the game we just were at
It made me so happy!!!!!!!!!!! For details, you can go here to get the full scoop! And I have a new obsession with Ibanez… I call him the “freak”
However before I get to the game, we did have our new storm door delivered (thank you Mom & Dad!! It’s a beauty of a door hehe) today and it really makes our house look amazing!
The game started at 3:05, but it was the Ring Ceremony, so we had to be there by 2:15 for the festivities, which were awesome. They even brought back Pat Burrell and other players who are not Phillies this year to give them their amazing ring. Um, yeah each ring costs $200,000!!!!!!! Heres the details for you jewelry lovers…
My eats were not spectacular on the healthy eating front, but they were good… on the way to the game since we were rushed we picked up wraps from Wawa, they were however on the healthy side… mine was packed with turkey, pepperjack cheese, and salsa…

For dinner, I had something I haven’t had since last August (I know because it was the night of my bachelorette party!): Philly Cheesesteaks… the picture isn’t awesome because I didn’t want the people sitting around me wondering why I was taking pictures of my food since we will be spending all season with them haha…This was the “Heater” from Campo’s and contained pepperjack cheese, hot sauce, and peppers and onions… It had some kick, for sure.

We also picked up our gift for being Season Ticket holders… how awesome are these glasses?

I am still full so now I’m getting ready to put the pjs on and relax! I’ll leave you with one last “Yay” for the Phillies and a picture of Brad Lidge closing out the game…




Oh my gosh, what a blast!
FAAAAABULOUS GAME NIGHT!!
Sounds like a super fun night!
Go Phils!
I fell in love with Ibanez a little last night, too, though Jason Werth is still my favorite
You are making me really want to go to a baseball game
too bad the Padres are crap-tastic so far…but it’s a long season, right?
What fun! I’m totally drooling over the cheesesteak. The super spicy version sounds amazing!
THAT GAME WAS AWESOME!!!! <3 Lidge!!!! “The Closer”!!!!
Your cheesesteak looks awesome too! I’ve never had Campo’s. The only cheesesteak I’ve gotten at CBP was Rick’s, the vegetarian cheesesteak… OMG, it was so good! I’ve never had pepper jack cheese on a cheesesteak… great combo idea! I don’t know why I never thought of it before, b/c pepper jack is one of my faves! But when you think Philly cheesesteak, you think Provolone or Cheez Whiz, you know?
Also, I can’t get a cheesesteak without sauteed mushrooms and onions. It just feels naked without them.
Okay, now I’m craving a cheesesteak.
Oh my gosh.. MLB games are my favorite event to attend..ever. I am so sad we dont have a ML team here in Utah. There is nothing like baseball all summer!
Chris wants to know how far of a drive it is from Philly to Boston because Pat Burrell played in the Boston game tonight too.
I might as well have just typed a sentence in Swahili because I have not clue what any of that meant.
Glad you got to watch a good game!
this so reminded me of being a kid and all the pgh pirates games we’d go to.
I miss that living here~
YAY!! Sounds like you guys had a blast!
I’m defff jealous of season tickets. I live in Detroit – so I’m a Tigers fan – but that Lidge scares the crap out of me when he comes up to close out my Tigs. He’s good!!
