Royals Game

A couple weeks ago we went to a Royal's game with all our KC friends. The game was great (we won!), the weather was perfect, but it wasn't the best experience ever... a couple of the people in our group waited in line for dollar hotdogs the ENTIRE game!!! We got in line right as the game started and didn't get seated until the third inning. We thought that was bad, until they got in line sometime during the first inning and never even made it to their seats! Then the fireworks show was cancelled due to the excessive winds. Oh well, at least we got to see the Meyers, Keiths, and Nunnallys!

The stadium looks awesome!




Our reaction to the fireworks show cancellation:


A great one of the guys:

Fun in Chillicothe...

... only 3 weeks later!

as promised...

Sorry to keep you all in suspense (I'm sure you were just waiting on the edge of your seat!) :)

Our first pictures were taken a couple of months ago. I was heading to bed and noticed that there was something big under our window. I peeked between the blinds and there were two deer right there!! I ran and grabbed my camera and headed to the balcony. One was spooked be my being out there so she took off, but the other one didn't seem to mind at all!



The second deer ran to the trees and watched me... she was so still that she was hard to see!




A couple weeks ago I was walking in and saw 12 turkeys! I've never seen a turkey so close up before! You'll definitely want to zoom in on this one!



So maybe it's not too unusual to see deer and turkeys, but to see them right below you, and in the middle of a city, is pretty crazy to me!

We have lots more to post so please keep checking back!
