Anniversary Weekend




Matt and I had an action-packed weekend celebrating our 11th Anniversary. Friday night, we had a delicious dinner at Harry's and then headed to Pechanga for the IMPROV. It is one of our favorite things to do and we are never disappointed. Always a great evening of comedy.

On Saturday, we ventured to the Del Mar horse races-my first time! No luck on our bets, but we sure had fun walking around, people watching, eating a shaved ice and watching several of the races. We left after about 5 races and headed to downtown SD for some dinner in the Gaslamp and then the Padres game. We got so lucky! As we were approaching the ticket counter to buy some tickets, a couple walked up and said "Tonight, we have a gift for you. You can have these 2 tickets we don't need." After a moment of surprise and a thank you to the couple, we realized the tickets were field level, 7 rows behind home plate!! We couldn't believe our luck and Matt couldn't believe how giddy I was. We called the girls and told them to watch for us on TV. The Pads were playing the SF Giants and we knew my Mom would be watching. The girls called us a few times to say that they saw us. It was very cute! The Pads couldn't score a run, but it was fun anyway. I took this picture of Randy Winn because I went to high school with him and it was my first time seeing him in the major leagues.
