Caleb & Caden get the call...
Last night, it finally happened! We knew it was only a matter of time before the scouts would be calling. The boys were called up by the Kansas City Royals to play in Saturday evening's game against the Cleveland Indians (We left out the link to the Indians' site intentionally, most of you know that we would never promote the city of Cleveland or any of its athletic franchises). Unfortunately, the Roy Boys were routed mostly by the 5 runs in the first inning, no matter we had an amazing time anyway. Early this year the boys became members of the "Blue Crew", the Royals fan club. So after the All-Star Break the organization sent us 8 free tickets to last night's game. The adventure started off with us singing "Take me out to the Ball Park" about a dozen times on the way to the park. After arriving we made the long trek to our seats. Upon settling in Clint went picked up a half dozen hotdogs, a beer, a lemonade, and of course some Cracker Jacks. The boys stood up and took of their hats for the National Anthem. After that the fireworks really captured the boys' attention and then it was time for first pitch! The "Bball" (the twins' word for baseball) players took the field, however the boys were now mostly being entertained by the beautiful fountains in the outfield of Kaufmann Stadium . This was probably for the best, the Royals were in true form and the first inning lasted about 45 minutes. So we only made it through the 3rd inning. Check out the photos it was a blast and a really special moment for Clint.
