I've been busy so I've got a few games worth of updates to share with you guys!
Chicago Cubs @ Houston Astros - Opening Day 2009 04/06/09

Poor mom was in Hawaii of all places so she trusted my brother, my buddy Nyssa, and me to have a good time at Opening Day for her. It was my first one actually as I'd been in school for the previous four at least. Sadly it wasn't a great game but we still had a blast anyways because that's the way we do it at Minute Maid!
Chicago Cubs @ Houston Astros - 04/07/09

This game marked the start of two months straight of weekday home games! We managed to scoop up a bunch of certificates left behind at the last game last season so we have tickets to all but one game that they were valid for! Go us!
Here's a shot of me and Nyssa down by the fence before the game!
She had so much fun and was so impressed with the stadium and fans! And she caught on to how the game works so quickly! The Phillies are her closest team and she's already contemplating going out to one of their games when the 'Stros come into town! How's that for a conversion?!
Cincinnati Reds @ Houston Astros - 04/20/09

I was focusing on keeping my score card this night. It's tough to follow the game and draw the sketches at the same time. But I decided to study Kaz some. I have my reasons.
Los Angeles Dodgers @ Houston Astros - 04/22/09

I always forget to draw them stretching! Granted I'm usually down at the fence when they're stretching and it's not an atmosphere that's conducive to drawing. But this time I was up in the stands with mom and took a few moments to get some in. I was happy to see Kepp back too! He's been impressing me so far and I hope he keeps it up.
I've got a couple of posters in the works so hopefully I'll have some work to show for those. More presently I've got a game tonight! So I'll see you guys there and lets hope that we can sweep the Dodgers! Woo!
Until then, I'll leave you with a shot of downtown that Nyssa took.
