Reno Aces

This Monday, Drew and I went to the Reno Aces game with his parents. First we went out to dinner and tried a new restaurant called Buenos Grill. I got a Baja burrito and I thought it was really good! However, it wasn't a hit with everyone so it might not be a place we will recommend to the rest of the fam. Then we went to the game vs. the Colorado Springs Skysox. It was a lot of fun even though the Aces played an awful game! As entertainment they had the San Diego Chicken there and it was hilarious! We are really glad we were able to go with Julie & Bob. We will probably chose different seats next time, a little higher up but we are really enjoying having a local team and plan to go to more games! It's an awesome summer outing, so relaxing! Here's a picture of the new stadium downtown:


On another note, Drew's summer softball league started and they had an amazing game last Wednesday. (Drew has now played on a softball team every season since they have "freeze" ball here and has become a really good outlet for him.) I was the only fan who showed up to their last game, but it was well worth it! Drew hit an in fence home-run and scored the game winning run. Although he took quite a dive sliding into home! Ouch! I love watching the games and I've become know as Drew's "good luck" charm lately. Drew has been telling me that he always plays better when I'm watching, but it seems that all his teammates have now noticed the difference when I'm there. I don't know what it is, maybe Drew just is more aware of someone watching his every move, or he's just showin' off! He's a really good player and I'm really proud of him. I'm looking forward to the rest of the games! :)
