When your team wins the World Series and you have a baseball obsessed son, you must go to FanFest! Even if you know it's going to be a complete nuthouse with long lines and lots of people! I took Cooper out of school, left the girls at home and we headed downtown for some baseball fun.
He was in awe and I was too - it was an awesome setup.
Some players were speaking, couple were doing autographs (with crazy long lines) but he chose to do all the interactive baseball things. First up, the batting cages. He looks so little in that baggy sweatshirt and jeans...he's grown so much since January!
Taking it all in...as usual.
He waited awhile to get to play baseball on a small field. He was hilarious to watch, never stopped moving - he wanted badly to get the ball.
After all that anticipation and waiting, he and another kid collided and he ended up with a bloody nose/lip...nothing bad but enough to sit out for a couple batters.
The last thing we did was the virtual pitching machine.
I love nothing more than taking the kids to things they truly love and baseball is definitely this kid's number 1 love...besides me of course ;).
We had brought his Royals book/sharpie and just happened to run into David Glass as we were walking out!
