This Is Us: Texas Rangers

Texas Rangers

A very sweet family in our church gave us tickets to the Rangers game about a week ago. They weren't just any tickets, they were amazing tickets right above the dugout. In fact, the guys sat behind Nolan Ryan the entire game. Isn't that every guy's dream, to stare at the back of Nolan Ryan's head? :)

Since we didn't think Olivia could handle the heat, nor would she appreciate the game, we called up my dad and he gladly hopped in his car and came down for the night.

They all had a blast and we now have two new Texas Rangers fans in our home. Life will never be the same.
