Spring Training is finally here!!! Pitchers and catchers reported this week and Sammy, Janet and I headed out to the ballpark. The first day we went to the Royals and the kids met a new friend and played for about two hours as we watched the players practice. It was a nice start to the week.

Day 2 Sammy and I headed out to see the Rangers!! Our favorite team to visit! All the players are very friendly to the fans. It was a productive day, Sammy got a bunch of autographs and pictures with some players. I asked him to look and smile at the camera, I have no idea whats going on with his posed smile but its cute to look at. It was a rainy day and in the first 15 minutes he was sliding in the grass getting all muddy. The highlight of Sammy's day was playing with his new friend Alex and getting to interact and get a picture with Josh Hamilton. Hamilton is great with the kids. He told Sammy to come over to him to take the picture. Of course Sammy being the silly kid he is he ran away! The next thing you know Hamilton is chasing Sammy around the field with his bat to catch him! Its fun as a Dad to see your kids have fun!

We hope to see the Brewer's on day three!!
