Opening Day

Opening Day finally arrived, brushing aside the painful memories of Game 5 with the hope and optimism of a new season.  Owen and I dutifully took the afternoon off to take in the festivities and cheer on our beloved Washington Nationals, and Owen even kept score for the first time.  Mom Mom and Grandpa Don joined us, and we all jumped for joy when Bryce Harper hit a home run in his first at bat of the season, cheered as Stephen Strasburg retired 19 straight Marlins, and smiled in disbelief at Harper's second home run in as many at bats.  The Nats won (hopefully the first of many) and started out the 2013 baseball season right :-)
