Let's Go Royals!

We spent Father's Day weekend in St. Louis with some good friends. They just happen to be big Cardinals fans and the Cards were playing the Royals, so it was on. The kids had a lot of fun teasing each other about the game, and in the end, the Cardinals won. Maybe next year....

I've been waiting to do this post because most of the pictures we took are on our phones, but here's a few anyway:

A little bit of blue in the sea of red.



The cutest Royals fan at the game!



Waiting outside the stadium. I must brag on the Cardinals organization for a minute; a friend at Jason's work told him that military can get standing room only tickets for free. We were super excited for free tickets, but were completely shocked when they handed us the tickets and they were actually seats. Good seats. What a great way to give back Cards!



It was Sunday Funday, which meant free popcicles for kids and lots of fun activities before the game. Here's Jaxon and friend, Ali, under the "Arch". Just before the picture, they got to knock the arch down and then help build it back up. See the little guy to the right of the picture sneaking up? In about 5 seconds he's going to knock the arch down on top of Ali and Jax!

We actually got to the game early enough to watch the Royals take batting practice! They threw some balls up to us and each of my kiddos got to take one home. Their daddy still has never gotten a MLB ball to date. Don't bring it up to him anytime soon!
