So Levi and I have been having alot of fun this spring. Here is an update because I'm sure you are all dying to know!!!
We have been attending quite a few cultural events, all of which have been very different, but very fun. It all started with the Bon Jovi concert, which was AWESOME!
The Man himself! It was a great show!
We also saw George Strait & Reba, and My Chemical Romance. Unfortunately, no pictures were taken at these shows. They were both awesome as well.
Levi's Mom and Stepdad bought a boat this past winter, and we took it out for a little test drive a few weeks ago. It was quite chilly, but made us all so excited for summer. Maybe I will finally get wakeboarding down...
Last but not least, we took a week off work and went on our first solo/week-long vacation together. We went down to Phoenix to enjoy some Diamondback's baseball and warm weather. We went to 7 games total, and it was so much fun! We ate hot dogs and garlic fries for dinner every night except for 1 (for Levi, 2 for me). Here are some highlights from the trip:
The All-Star Game is at Chase Field in Phoenix, where the D-Backs play, this summer. Levi is going with his Dad and Brother, and is quite excited.
This is the view from our seats. We had seats in this general area for the week, except for 1 night, we were a few sections over to the left. They were great seats, except for the day games when the sun was out. We watched batting practice everyday before the game and made fun of all the grown men with their mits, trying to catch a fly ball.
And what do you know...
One lands right by my feet and Levi finally gets his own fly ball!
I wanted a picture in my new D-Backs shirt Levi got me. Unfortunately, I had to wear a hat to the games to avoid the annoying wind! It is so windy in the stadium :(
Here are the Racing Legends!
Four guys wearing giant foam heads race around half the field after the 5th inning. They resemble past Diamondbacks Legends Luis Gonzales, Matt Williams, Mark Grace, and my favorite, Randy Johnson. It is hilarious to see, and I just love these guys. I would get so excited everytime they came out. You could also see them dancing with kids in the upper deck after the "7th Inning Stretch". It always put a smile on my face. One of the nights, they had a promotion giving away bobble-heads of "Racing Gracie" (Mark Grace).
I was yelling for Randy to come over, and he did! He also gave me a nice pose!
We ran into him later on that day, and I finally got my picture with him. A great way to end the trip!
Other events deserving honorable mention include:
-Laying out by the pool
-Going to movies in the middle of the afternoon
-Singing Katy Perry's new song "E.T" pretty much every time we were in the car
-Eating Waffle Dogs at Over Easy (if you ever go to Phoenix, eat there)
-The yummy pizza and beautiful surroundings at Pizzeria Bianco (eat here also!)
All in all, it's been a great spring so far!
