Yesterday, we took Ava to the Twins game, the last of a 4 game home series against Boston (Justin, they have a team in Boston called the Red Sox...and yes, they are my 2nd favorite team in baseball...so deal with it).
Before the game out on the plaza, she got to jump on the T.C. Belly Jumper! Somehow our timing worked out that she had the entire thing to herself! Pretty cool!
Our tickets were on the first baseline, but we didn't have one for Ava, so sitting on our laps, she got a little squirmy after 2 innings. We moved to section 139 right by the 3rd baseline foul post in the outfield. I actually like that area, plus it was almost empty, so we had the entire row to ourselves, as well as the ones in front and back of us.
Ava was much more comfortable there, and it turned out to be a great move! She got to meet T.C. Bear! Right after this picture, she gave him a little peck on the nose. Pretty dang cute!
She was also given a real baseball! Which she had T.C. autograph! She was pretty excited!
She was quite the cheerleader...and coined her own cheer "Go Tins!!!" I may be biased, but I'm pretty sure that her team spirit was the main contributing factor to their big win last night.
She had a great time, but a 2 1/2 year old on a Monday night can only handle so much (and as responsible parents, we tried to keep her close to her normal bedtime), so we headed out during the 6th inning and we were back home in time to catch the last inning and a half on TV.
