Ben's 1st Royals Game

Vince has been dying to take Ben to his 1st Royals game since we got back to KC. So he decided that Sunday was the day. Lucky for us he picked great seats in the shade which was a life saver since it was so hot & humid out. We packed up and headed out to the K a little after noon. I was a little worried since nap time is at 1:30 but figured we would just see what happens. When we got to the gate the woman who took our tickets told us to make sure we got Ben his first game certificate-which we made sure we got! She also rubbed him for good luck! And looks like Ben was the lucky charm the Royals needed since we beat the Cubs 6-3! We got to our seats and settled in for the game just as the crowd went wild-Ben's face was priceless. He wasn't quite sure about all the noise he looked like he was going to scream but thankfully he didn't! He soon acclimated to the crowd and was fine the rest of the game-he even took a snooze during the game! I got my traditional ballgame pretzel and gave Ben a little taste. He thought he was such a big boy with his tiny bites of pretzel and his bottle of water! We stayed until the bottom of the 7th and decided we should get home before the traffic got bad and so Ben could take a real nap. I know that this marked the first of many games Ben will enjoy at the K!
