Take Me Out to the Ballgame...

So I'm a little behind on the blog, but here's a fun catch-up story.

David won a raffle for Astros tickets at his work, and we got to go to the game last Saturday (5th) for really cheap. I used to go to games all the time with my grandma and aunt, but I don't think I've been to one since starting college.

I was just excited that he'd won because I'd been wanting to go to a game for a couple of years, but I was really excited when I found out that they were such awesome tickets that we never would have bought ourselves. They were 4 rows up from the field right above the Phillies' dugout. That was the only problem with the tickets. We ended up having some Phillies fans around us who cheered at all the wrong times. :)

It was a great game to go to because Hunter Pence hit a homer,

Roy Oswalt was pitching,

and they won in the bottom of the 9th with a come-from-behind victory!
Now we just need to get David to win some more tickets like that. I'd go for Aggies tickets, too. :)

A little explanation for this picture... I get made fun of at David's work. Well, I guess we both get made fun of because of our height difference (almost 1 foot). David has one of our engagement pics on his desk at work where we are both sitting down, and several of the guys at work think it's funny to say that the pic is deceptive since our heads are at the same level. One time after I visited him at work, he told me that later someone told him that he was surprised my feet could touch the floor in the chair I was sitting in.

Anyway, the other couple who won tickets mentioned that, so we took this picture of me standing on a chair next to David so that I would look taller. I still don't think it helps much! :)

And for any Astros fans out there, yes, that is an original Jeff Bagwell shirt, circa 1994. It's been well-loved :P
