Some Fun With The Indians

Just as usual, I figured I'd sit down and fill everyone in on what we did this weekend. Friday started out with David and Joe running and then us heading to Casa Real for dinner. The rest of the night was spent hanging out with Jen trying to teach me how to use Photoshop.

Saturday started as a dreary day with rain and all. I had to work the morning shift and was understaffed so it was fun running my butt off trying to be 2 people at once. I came home and since it was draft weekend David was glued to the TV. I figured it'd be a great opportunity to get some yard work done. To my pleasant surprise the weather took a turn for the better and it ended up being a gorgeous day. I got stuff done in the yard and got to enjoy the sunshine. Can't complain about that. In the midst of me working on the yard David's 'rents came over to hang out with David during the draft for a bit. That evening we went to dinner with my 'rents at Applebee's and then we bummed around the rest of the evening....that included making some returns to Home Depot, checking out Kohls, letting Bailey out (Jen and Joe's dog), and keeping a close eye on the draft.

By the way, some interesting situations with the draft, eh? I try not to get that involved in it as I don't know all the statistics. My personal opinion is really it doesn't mean crap whether you're drafted 1st or 101st because it's a totally different game when you enter the pros compared to college. Once again I'm not a "pro" on football but just look at the history....We then stopped by me 'rents and chatted awhile with them.

Today we got up at a decent time and hit the road to go to the Indians game in Cleveland. Jen and Joe went up there for the weekend for their anniversary (Happy Anniversary!) and they got tickets so they invited us up there to meet them today. Once again it was a BEAUTIFUL day. Couldn't ask for any better. And the tickets were amazing (at least in my opinion). We were in the 8th row on the 3rd base line (not sure if that's the right way of describing it). Anyway, we've never had foul balls get that close to us. Joe and David, being the goobers they are, even brought their gloves along "just in case". There were some pretty close calls...just not close enough. So anyway, it was a great day to enjoy the weather, the game, and of course great conversation. Jen and I took a walk during the came and ended up over near the Batter's Eye for most of the game just soaking up the rays. You guessed it, my face is burnt....but that's it considering I had long sleeves and jeans on. Hey, I tried to get some sun by pulling up the pants and sleeves...don't think it helped though. On the way home we stopped in Avon at Red Robin for dinner and here we are. Of course we spent some time outdoors with the pups today too.

We even managed to stop in Elyria on our way to the game to pick up our mats at Michaels and framed our 2 big pictures tonight. All in all a great weekend that was enjoyable. It looks like the weather will continue to be nice, just not as nice as it was this weekend. We're looking at mid 50's-low 60's. But I won't complain. Keep it comin' Mother Nature!
