World Series 2011

What an incredible fall this has been for Cardinals fans! As soon as tickets to the World Series went on sale (while the Cards were still battling it out with the Brewers), I went online and bought a pair. I picked game six thinking it had the potential to be a clincher. The Rangers could have clinched it on any number of occasions that night, but the Cards forged that incredible comeback to force a game 7. It was an amazing game to witness. We saw Rangers fans go from euphoric to dejected, we saw Cards fans leave early (we even saw some leave early twice), but most importantly we saw one of the most amazing Cardinals World Series wins ever.
We met up with Jason and Jim at Paddy O's before the game.

 Molly's friend Connie and her husband came in from Arizona for games six and seven.
The view from our seats:
We won!!!!!!
Jim also got to go to game seven! Here is Albert's last at bat.
Thanks David for inviting Jim to game seven! What an amazing World Series! 

We went downtown today for the World Series Parade.
We met up with several friends to celebrate together.
The kids ran around and played ball while waiting for the parade to start.



Hopefully these friends will get to come to many more Cardinals World Series parades in their lifetime.
