Summer time and the living is easy.
Okay, while I like that song, those lyrics have been anything but true for me this summer. ExO has been incredibly stressful, time-consuming and overwhelming. And while I’m really, really loving it, I’m also having to make sure to schedule time to switch my brain off and get away from it all.
Enter date nights. Because it’s fun to spend time with my husband and he is a true saint for having to deal with me these past three months. One day I’ll be sane again. 😉
Pin me!
Date night out at Omaha Storm Chasers
We love doing fun things around Omaha. One of our favorite summer past times is going to see baseball games at Werner Park. The Omaha Storm Chasers are the feeder team for the Kansas City Royals. The stadium is out in West Omaha and is always a fun time. Every game usually has some event going on in addition to the game and it’s always a packed house.
We recently went for one of their bands and brews event. There’s a live band before the game and beer specials. Don’t mind if we do! Here are some photos of our night out.
Josh tried a new-to-him craft beer and gave it two thumbs up.
It was 90’s night at the game. The band was so good and played some of my favorite hits from the decade.
I am all about the Lime-A-Ritas. One $10 drink and I am good for the game!
One of my very favorite things about Werner Park is the food selection. This is not your standard ballpark fare. While there’s plenty of hotdogs and hamburgers to go around, there’s also lots of local restaurants represented at the game.
La Mesa is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Omaha and they have a booth at the ballpark. We loaded up on favorites and took our seats to watch the game.
And what a game it was! We cheered, I caught a teeshirt from the cannon, and we had a great time.
It’s always fun to have a night out with my favorite guy. Even when life is absolutely crazy, it’s important to take time to live, enjoy, and just be We can’t wait to do it again soon.

What a fun date! &&& awesome mexican food right there at the game! I’m SOLD lol. My date nights with my husband are normally going to eat and playing games at the local arcade or hitting up a book store! I would love to go to a football game with him. We are going with another couple in Nov to see Chris D’elia’s stand up. I can not wait for that date! 😛

This looks so fun! My boyfriend and I recently went to a Mets game (just because we live in NYC) and it was the best date ever!

Oh how fun! I love that it was 90’s night – some great music in those years. It’s awesome there was really good food too and not just your typical game fare.

Sports, always a fun date idea!
Veronika says
My husband would love this! What a great time.
Kristi says
What a great place! I love to go to sports games – especially when they have ‘extra-curricular’ activities! Our favorite ‘date night’ is just driving around and exploring, trying some place new that we didn’t know about. I’m always up for an adventure!
Mariah says
How fun! I love baseball dates in the summer.
Jessy says
Sounds so fun! We haven’t been to a ball game in forever! A great date night idea for sure.
Sami Summers says
Yes! This looks like a wonderful idea for a date night! My husband and I sneak them in wherever we can nowadays, including dating in the swamp. Yours was a lot cleaner than ours, I’m sure! I am going to have to find us a baseball game to get to sometime soon, I’ve not been to anything above high school level in years!
Cheers!
