There were 3500 people there in the DSA block; here are about a third of them:
My girls love going to Cardinals games (Let's Go, Cardinals!) Ellie loves everything to do with the game and the crowds and the food . . . and she especially enjoys being around other people with Down syndrome. Ada likes pointing out all the Cardinals she sees posted around the stadium. (For the record, there are a lot of them.) And she also loves the fireworks. Thank you, Albert Pujols, for that home run!
Here's Ellie with a crowd of new ballgame friends. (Already she's ditching her parents for a hipper crowd down the row!)
During a freak storm the other night, the weather station kept blasting a weird warning siren that sounded a lot like a particular cue from the ballpark. Ellie punched her right fist out, screaming, "CHARGE!" each time. Priceless.
Here's Ellie "Charging!" at the game:
Also featured: Paul's butt.

Does Paul have white jeans? Umm...
Looks like everyone had fun!
Hah! Baggy cargo khaki shorts!
My husband, fashion plate.
Okay! They look very not-after-labor-day White in the picture.
What a great sized crowd!!
I love that picture of her with her buddies. She looks so happy!
Ellie looks like she was having such a good time!! The gratuitious shot of Paul's butt was good photography. :)
It cracks me up that you're the fashionista, Rob! Plus, it's funny to imagine Paul in white pants. :)
Chrystal, yeah, it was amazing. So great.
Beachcomber, she really was. And those older girls were so great with her. Ellie really loves older girls.
Tracey, it's true: I'm an amazingly horrible photographer. I've always chopped off Paul's head, but at least he's tall. With my kids, I have no excuse!
