Las Vegas 51's

This last Friday Jake and I went to a Las Vegas 51's baseball game. It was really fun. They were playing the Portland Beavers. Sorry Megan and John...Porland lost by one! This picture of us is pretty funny looking. I always say that married couples start looking like each other after a couple years...we look like each other in this picture!!
Our long bench line consisted of Tommy, Josh, Nathan, Ateam, another guy I can't remember his name (one of Tommy's co-workers), Vinny, Phaedra, Jake, and me! I couldn't get anyone's attention for a picture and I don't think everyone was really sitting all at the same time. There were drink runs, bathroom breaks, peanut purchases, and hot dog cravings throughout this 3 1/2 hr. game!  
So every time that I would try and take a picture of the players, this guy that could almost pass for Drew Carey would stick his head over to talk to his buddies. So this dark picture of the opposite team batting is what we got! Which is an amazing picture of the batter because he was the first of the night to hit it over the wall! YEAH!

So some fun facts of our game:
the score was 11 Portland 12 Las Vegas, there were 5 broken bats, 4 over the fence home runs, Nate Tannenbaum (local weather man) played the flute for the National Anthem, we ate a bag of peanuts, a pretzel, a hotdog, and had 3 drinks (of soda)!, everyone else in our party had about 3 drinks of beer each, we got a seat cushion for being one of the 1st 2500 people there, we heckled and cheered, and it was an exciting 9 innings. Next game...May 9th!

Emily, does Jake have any hair in that picture? I know he has a hat on but he looks bald. I have to say that your hair is cute though.

Jake shaves his head every summer. Clean cut razor shave!
