Royals Game With Family

Uncle Kurt turned the big 4-0 on Saturday so the WHOLE family went to a Royals Game! It was a scorcher outside, but we had awesome seats in the shade and had a blast!

One of Kris' friends growing up, Brad Ziegler (his preacher's son from back home), pitches for the Oakland A's, the team the Royals were playing. So, before the game we all went to say hello and get pics and autographs.

During this game they paid tribute to our military. We were extremely impressed with all they did so show appreciation for those men & women serving our country. They had lots of videos from Afghanistan of soldiers who were Royals fans and even had some live video of them watching the game.

I took this picture after some of the tribute. I got kind of emotional during some of it so my eyes were all red.

Hannah and Isabel just play so great together. They kept each other entertained the whole time.

We saw the Royals Mascot come out to the stands so the kids went down to see him. He scooped Hannah up before she knew what was happening. I could not believe that she wasn't scared. She thought it was so fun! Big smiles! Lincoln wasn't too sure about him. He started backing away when he got close.

Towards the end of the game, Brad started warming up so Kris and the guys went down to watch him and take some pictures. Brad pitches sidearm or submarine style. It is neat to watch him.

We kept hoping that he would get to pitch. They called him in during the 9th inning. Here he is warming up out on the field.

He pitched one time, a strike, and that was it. The guy was out and the inning was over. Oh well, at least we got to see him pitch, even if it was only once!

It had been awhile since all of Kris' family had gotten together so it was great seeing everyone.
