We went to Minneapolis for our annual trip to take in Twinsfest. For those of you not familiar, it's a gathering of many things all centered around the MN Twins. Many current and former Twins come and will sign autographs, do interviews for kids, take pictures with fans and be on the radio. You can also audition to sing the national anthem for a game, see oodles and oodles of memorabilia, buy your favorite Twins gear in the Pro Shop, partake in silent auction, but tickets for the upcoming season and tour the clubhouses. For kids, they set up a few batting cages that are manned by Gopher players, bounce houses for the younger kids and 2 makeshift baseball fields where they play whiffle ball and kids can run the bases and all.
James and I have been going since 2005 and always seem to see something new each year. Brady is of the age that he LOVES the bounce houses and knows quite a few of the players and Samantha was just along for the ride this year :)
Brady watching the "big" kids play baseball and telling us maybe he'll do it next year when he's 4 . . .
Denard Span at the Kids Q & A - he was hilarious!
