Last week my Dad said I should fly back to Texas if the Rangers made it to the World Series and he could get me a ticket, but I figured it wasn't possible since plane tickets would cost over $450. Then the Rangers won the ALCS last Friday night to make it to their first World Series in franchise history. And then the San Francisco Giants won the NLCS on Saturday night. My friend Megan said I should fly back for a World Series game and that gave me the idea to ask if she could get me free round trip airfare through Southwest Airlines since she works there. Luckily she had a free pass and was incredibly nice to offer it to me! So, that means I'll be going to Game 3 of the World Series this Saturday between the Texas Rangers and the San Francisco Giants! Who would have thought two of my favorite baseball teams would make it to the World Series in the same year?!

So, I'll be flying in tomorrow night around 8:30 pm and leave Sunday morning at 9:10 am, with a stop in Albuquerque each way. Not only will I see the first ever World Series game at the Ballpark in Arlington, but I'll get to see my niece, Evie! She's already over 8 months old and starting to stand on her own and even make word-like sounds! I'm really excited about seeing her, my sister, and Mom and Dad. I'll also be having dinner with Megan after she picks me up from the airport. It should be a lot of fun!
