Father/Daughter and start of Baseball Season

[joeadcock]

Since Spring Training just started, thought would throw in some photos from the recent Fanfest Rays festival. Every year, Tropicana stadium opens up to all the fans. Take pictures with players, run the bases, etc. My daughter is a big fan. First one is her and last year's American League rookie of the year. Other shots also. Last one is shot of the Yankees/Jays game I caught today in Dunedin, Florida. One good thing about Florida this time of year, is all the spring training. That and Cards, what a great combination.

That's awesome that your daughter likes baseball...something you two can really share for a long time together. I'm sure that brings you two closer too. Does she get into collecting cards/memorabilia?

[joeadcock]

Nope, just a piece of cardboard to her.

My daughter's Monster # is now at 23. Last month she split her bday money on a lightsaber (and one for her brother) and three cards.

She picks em from a beater stack I have and we just tuck her bounty back in the old piggy bank.

She's a diehard Seahawks & Calgary Flames fan...no clue on bb.

Brief fling at corporate softball, but the gene is in their somewhere.

My oldest started playing ball last year at age 5 and his little brother is even more of a sports fan. I just have to get them both to start wearing ball caps instead of "happy" caps

Chris, cute girl...keep her collecting the cardboard!!!

Mike, happy caps are fine. Shows how innocent they are. To maintain the innocence. Envy all who have them young still. Such a great time......one thing I did get to have her do on Fanfest was throw the baseball on the field. I took couple of gloves and a ball and her and her friend threw the baseball for awhile.............my last pic of that day to show............Chris, great picture. Dont have any pictures like that when my kids were small..........Frank, honestly hope I can get a shot of one of my girls playing baseball in the future also................

I am jealous. I have a 17yr old daughter who has no interest in baseball at all, except her boyfriend has played on the HS team. Thanks for sharing the pics guys...a bunch of cute girls there!!
