We Have A Winner!!

Tuesday night Holly and Brad invited us to another Round Rock Express game and since we have so many pictures of the Round Rock Express games I didn't take my camera. Bad Idea! The one time I don't take my camera we were asked if Drake wanted to be in a race during the 3rd inning. Actually it worked out because one of the workers was taking pics and got them from her. ANYWAYS... so Drake was in a little foot race with Tyson, Holly and Brad's little boy, and another little boy, 3 all together. I had no intentions of Drake doing well but guess what... He won!! Jordan started him off and when they said go I knew I had to get eye contact with Drake. So I am yelling his name and waving his snack cup, another strategy!, and he started to come...

The race felt like it was in slow motion! So he kept coming as I am encouraging him. Then he gets his eye on the finish line streamer and as you can see in the picture got so excited and kept coming...


At this point I hear Holly saying "NOOOOO", I am laughing so hard and still encouraging Drake and then he grabbed the finish line!

It was so fun! Drake did awesome, he had no idea what was going on but everyone started cheering and they gave us the prize... an Adult Small tee shirt, I guess for me? I thought they would give away a childs size shirt or some candy or something but oh well I am excited!

Good job Drakers! We had alot of fun at the game with everyone, more fun actually than others in the past so thanks Holly and Brad for the tickets!

Dear Drake-

I saw the video of you dancing! Good Job, Drake, you won the Baby Race! I'm really your best friend and I want you to come to my house for a play date. I want to come to your house for a play date. I want you to come to my house to play with the toys and build puzzles and play games. I really love you.

Love,
Chase

It was the running shoes.

And the fact that Tyson was on the downside of his sugar rush. He crashed right before the person said "go". I should have timed that better.

And yes the race was in SUPER slow motion. It seemed like they were taking a stroll in the park until Drake hit the gas. I'm still convinced it was the snack cup. And those sips of super strength water you gave him from MY water bottle.

Good job Drakey!

Love, slightly competitve Holly
