October 28

I'm not sure if it was the baseball diapers or the baseball jammies last night, but I think our family can take personal responsibility for the Cardinals' amazing win last night in Game 6 of the World Series.

Realizing that they bear the heavy burden of helping their team win the World Series, Caleb and Daisy spent the day preparing for the final game tonight.

Caleb gave Fredbird lots of love and encouragement,

and even game him a few pitching lessons.

Daisy wore her Cardinals best, but made sure to wear a bow in her hair, too.
(It was her first time wearing a hair barrette, and it went well, thank you!)

As the game started, we observed a few post-season rituals: 
Store-bought Cardinals cupcakes

and
an icy cold can of smooth Busch Beer (though we passed on the easy-drinking Busch Light).
It's long been a tradition of ours to drink Busch Beer when the Cardinals are in the playoffs. If we can't be at Busch Stadium, we can at least drink Busch Beer. It's a sacrifice we make for our team.

Now let's go, Cardinals! Bring home that World Series trophy!
