Our Phillies have done it.
Wednesday is date night in our house. So last night, Nate and I were amongst the masses out cheering on our Phillies as they won the world series. I will never forget it. For a moment all of the years of misery, heartache and heartbreak were erased as throngs of Philadelphia sports fans danced in the streets. It was a firework laden, cheering, dancing, horns honking sort of outburst of joy the likes of which I have not seen in my lifetime. It was awesome.
We have booked a hotel room and are carting the kids down to center city tonight so that we can go to the parade tomorrow without having to contend with traffic.
I can't possibly think of a better way to celebrate Halloween.
I'm thrilled that my daughter was born in a Championship year for my city.
It's fun to win.
