5 Twins Fans

My dad said that he would like to go to a Twins game with his daughters this summer. We of course were all game, so we picked a date (July 3rd in case you're wondering just how far behind I actually am). He really wanted to be circled by Bert as well, and if you're not from MN I will not even attempt to explain this phenomenon, but it involves making some sort of sign and dancing like crazy people trying to get on TV. Again, didn't take much convincing for the 4 of us!

So Friday night we headed down and had burgers on the plaza, where Rachel made Dad take this picture...so classic...


Apparently Gardy just told Dad a really funny joke. =)

Once we got inside, Kasey and I decided to try to talk to the camera man ahead of time to try to ensure that if we danced like wild maniacs with our sign that we would have a chance of being circled, but let's just say he really gave us the brush off...everytime I looked at him or tried to say something he'd turn around!


Then 5 minutes later Dad got hungry...



We enjoyed most of the game until Kip had to leave to go to work (around 9 o'clock). We thought this was toward the end of the evening, so we made sure to get a few pics before she left.





Turns out this was the longest. game. eeeeevvvvveeeeeerrrrrrrrr. Kip saw less than half the game.



Yep, that clock says 12:15 (ALMOST the end of the game) in the 16th inning. Did you know that they do a 14th inning stretch at a ballgame too? Unfortunately we lost, then GOT LOST driving home, so we made it to Canterbury to order a little food from Kip as a bedtime snack around 2 AM. Such a fun night. Thanks Daddio!
