Go Twins!

I should title this post "Pulling Teeth" since my 3 kids were being huge pains about me taking pictures. We are in Twins gear and ready to go. You guys know how this story ends, but getting to the game is part of the experience and we had the best time. Even though I wanted to throttle them every time I asked them to stand still for a picture.
The Metro Dome with the huge hole in the roof is out the window. We are riding the Light Rail which we are "pros" at navigating since it goes in a straight line all the way to the cities and back to The Mall. It's a lot of fun to be riding with Twins fans and feeling the excitement grow as we picked up more fans at each stop. The guy behind Sr. was talking about guacamole, but Alicia and I were starting to think that his guac was different than our guac.... hmm....

It is FREEZING and I made them take their jackets off. They are faking these smiles.

We ate indoors at a bar. Great atmosphere.

No comment.

Hanging out under a heat lamp. These are standard issue in MN.

A stroll by the field. Just amazing to be in the stadium and with the fans. We really wanted to touch the grounds.

See the stupid green hat in Alicia's hand? We got these hats for being 1 of the first 4,000 fans and it was a promo for Earth Day. Well, the green hats don't match so I didn't want them in the pictures. Oh, wow, the fussing I had to listen to whenever I told them to drop their dorky hats. They don't match!

A view from our nosebleed seats! The little worker bees are fruitlessly trying to push the water off the field.

They don't take me seriously. I told them that they could leave their stupid hats on.

We bought this blanket 10 minutes before they canceled the game. We didn't see an "at bat", but we certainly had a blast.
