My first blog post!

My name is Shannon and if you haven’t realized it yet, I am a huge Cubs fan. I moved to Chicago in June of 2008 from the lovely city of Las Vegas, where I lived my entire life until I became an official Chicagoan at the age of 25. I fell in love with the city of Chicago and with my favorite baseball team on a trip here in February of 2002. Although it was freezing, like nothing I had ever felt before as a Vegas native, I was hooked and knew that one day, I would call Chicago home. It took 6 long years but I finally made it and have loved every second of living here. I am truly blessed by having such wonderful friends in the bleachers. We all sit in Section 303, and the smaller group of 20 and 30 something’s that I’m a part of (we call ourselves NextGen) sits in the very front row of that section. I couldn’t ask for a better seat in the house!!! This is how I’ve spent my last two summers and hope to continue to do so for as long as I live here. Hopefully this will finally be the year and I’ll be front row left field to witness it!
