The other day we drove to Cincinnati, OH to go to a REDS VS. DODGERS Baseball game. It took about 1 1/2 hours to get there which wasn't too bad. And the drive was really pretty....with so many TREES!!!! It would be a great drive to take during the Autumn months when the leaves are changing colors.
Anyway, Brett won our tickets off a radio station out here so we didn't have to pay for anything. We also had 3 other couples come so it was a little party. We had $22 dollar tickets so we sat on the first 'upper level' in the front row, which were great seats except for the fact that no foul balls made it up to that side. The girls had a great time eating COTTON CANDY & SNO CONES, & I even enjoyed watching the game. I am not a big sports fan, but it was fun to experience the excitement of a major league game....and if I had to pick a sport to watch, it would definitely be baseball. It's one of the easier sports to follow :).
The REDS ended up winning (much to Brett's dismay....since he is more of a dodgers fan), but after being there for 4 hours, I was just glad that someone FINALLY won!!! It was Fireworks Friday, so after the game, they had a 20 minute firework show that the girls really enjoyed (and so did the rest of us).
(Notice Avery in the left corner trying to fit into the picture with her "funny face")
And at 11:30 P.M, we were on our way home. It started raining soon after we got on the road, so we were glad to have missed getting soaked at the game!! The girls quickly fell asleep & we got home @ 1:00.
So that was our fun adventure last week. It's a good thing Brett & I have good luck finding free stuff, because otherwise we would probably never do anything fun!
