Royals game

Last night was to be Lucas first baseball game of the season. KC is now the new Seattle and as it rains everyday so the game was cancelled. Actually I don't look for him to have any games at all this week.
Jeremy decided to treat us to a night at the Royals game. Addi seemed to be a bit confused by this change in plan. Once we found our seat at the stadium she tried to get Lucas to go down to the field. She was yelling at him, go Lu kas go. Go play Lu kas. I think she may be a bit disappointed in how a little league machine pitch game goes.
We took a walk around the stadium when we got there to find our brick. After a little searching we located it.
This was our first trip out to the stadium since the renovation. We have been so busy since opening day. If you have not been you have to get out there. You know you are in the same old Kauffman but it has a totally different feel to it. When you are sitting in your seat you have to actually think what did it use to look like over there because nothing is out of place and nothing overly new compared with the old parts. It is just great.








Hey I don't remember that from last
year....see...oh wait, I don't remember
anything from last year.

The Naval Color Guard presented the flags. Lucas was super excited because his cousin Brad is in the Navy and for a minute he thought Brad was in town. Bummer he was not. Lucas said it was an extra special night when the Navy brings the flags. I could not agree more!



Here is a view that you could not take at the old K. A shot at the back of the field. It was way cool to walk all around the stadium.
Here is the awesome jumbo tron. The put all the pieces back together and it looks like in all the right order. One of the coolest things that happened to us was that Addi was dancing in the stands during the 9th inning. The camera man came over and shot her straight up to the jumbo tron. Then he turned to Lucas and Jeremy and put them up there also. Addi just danced the entire time smiling her heart out. Once we pointed her picture out to her she started doing the hyper dance and giggling. Man I wish I was not so memorized and remember to take a picture.

Hey tell Lucas we'll be in town soon! That's cute though what he said. Which reminds me of something I'm gonna email you about in a second while I'm thinking about it.

Maybe we'll have to take in a game while we're in town. Corben might like that this time. Looks like really nice stadium! Hopefully they'll have good luck this year because of the new surroundings! :)
