Baseball is very niiiice

We’re back in Great Falls today and Charlotte’s house was a gathering point for a multitude of people coming for the backyard wedding tomorrow. Charlotte has a huge family and so several of her brothers and sisters and assorted spouses met up here and at around 6:30pm we all headed for the stadium to watch the Great Falls White Sox take on the Billings Mustangs in the first of a three-game series.

Gary had reserved the stadium’s new MVP section for us right behind the visiting team’s dugout so we got to heckle at close range. I dug watching the game from that area. We got a cool free baseball cap and program and some food and drinks and had a great view of the game and accompanying thunderstorm.

The game went on for around 15 innings I believe. We gave up and left after the 14th though because everyone was pretty knackered and tomorrow’s a big day 🙂 But the Sox prevailed and all in all a good time was had.

Here’s a few more shots of the fam watching the game:

Gary and Swi watch the game intently 🙂


Shannon poses in the cool hat.


The Bride and Groom 🙂 I’m not sure who the other peeps are as of right now but I think they’re related to Charlotte.
