Take Me Out to the... Stadium

Chevon and Conan's mom were here over the weekend after Chevy's move to Boston. We had so much fun with them. On Saturday we thought we'd go to a Yankees game, you know, without any tickets. We took the subway up to the Bronx and got to see the new and old stadium. We thought we'd be able to just grab some cheap seats and get in. No such luck. Apparently the cheapest seats available were $350 each. New Yorkers love their Yankees! Needless to say, we looked at the stadium from afar and got some good pictures with it. We'll plan better next time.

It's hard to tell, but this big Yankee is actually a giant bobble head.

On the subway Christopher kept grabbing Conan's hat and putting it on. Why won't he do that with his own hat? We got really excited to see a guy wearing an Astros hat. When we asked him if he was a fan he gave us a strange look and said no, "It's just for fashion". Oops.

Here's a family shot on the subway. I love how we still look like tourists even after we've lived here a full year.

We ended up going to a sports bar across the street. We watched the game and ate crazy expensive potato skins. Christopher showed them by spilling a huge glass of water everywhere. Oh LG!

We were so sad when they had to go, but we already love having Chevy as a fellow East Coaster. We can't wait to see the fam again soon!
