Weekend Recap - The Mets and Citi Field

Happy Monday!  Is it me or did the weekend just FLY by?  It went by SO FAST for me and I just didn't have enough time to get anything done.  The only thing I did manage to get done was to finish the stripping of the trunk and then sand it:



























Now I just need to figure out what color I am going to stain it.  Any thoughts?   It is for my daughter but it doesn't have to be girlie.  I thought about painting it White but my husband didn't like that idea and thought it'd look better stained a nice color instead, so that's what I will do unless you guys come up with something different/better instead.  :o)  I will tell you this.... I can tell the difference of how OLD my body is compared to how old I think I am - I am still in so.much.pain from stripping and sanding this thing that I can hardly move - much less walk up and down stairs.  My hips are killing me something fierce - maybe it has to do with doing that work for 2 hours straight or something, I don't know - but man do I ever hurt like crazy! It sure stinks to be getting old.  HA!

Onto Citi Field.....we were lucky enough to score some AWESOME tickets to the new Citi Field - Mets Stadium where the Mets and Braves were playing Sunday.  We were in box seats just 9 rows behind home plate and they were the.BEST.seats!  We even had a free parking pass and these just kind of fell in our laps on Friday afternoon late and we could NOT pass them up, right?! :o)  Free is free!  Anyway... here are a some pictures for you - but be prepared - there are a lot! :o)

Citi Field:
Inside where our box seats were - this is the bar area - I'm not kidding you - it was SO nice inside where our particular seats were that it felt like we were hob knobbing with the rich and famous! LOL
 
9 rows behind home plate in the Delta Sky Box section:  

Getting ready for warm ups: 
National Anthem: 
Me and my boys: 
 
 
The game:
Mets Museum: 
 
Tug McGraw: 
Tug McGraw Jersey:
The End:
 
See... I told you there was a lot! Ha!  However, there was also no relief from the sun and the highs were in the 90's yesterday - and it was HOT.AS.BLAZES to say the least - we all got burned some too - but my husband got it the worst - his poor knees!  We should have known better and taken some sunscreen but to be honest, I never take my purse to those things so I wouldn't have had anywhere to put it anyway.

So how was your weekend?  I can't wait to catch up and see how you spent it! :o)

Thanks for stopping by to say hello! Have a great day my lovies!


Lots of love and hugs,
