Tomorrow and Wednesday I will finally have time to read everyone's blogs and comment and put up a real post here (and hopefully update the etsy) day! In the meantime, I will leave you with me... and a boatload of the Minnesota Twins baseball team!
Michael Cuddyer (we got our picture taken for the Twins Twitter page and he said "Oh no, this picture's gonna get me in trouble with the wife, you are too cute!" WHAT?!?! Oh yeah!)
Orlando Cabrera...
Jason Kubel...
Mike Redmond...
Nick Punto and Brendan Harris...
Scott Baker...
JUSTIN MORNEAU!!!
Seriously, I could barely contain myself! I also came away with three autographed balls, one I bought in the charity auction (I figured I HAD to spend some money, since my $100 entry ticket was free) and then I WON TWO MORE. How? There were some rich drunk people yelling at a security guard when he was just doing his job. I witnessed it and told him he was cool and doing a good job and that those people were just "leathery tan assholes." On the way out of the event, everyone got a goody bag that had a bunch of crap in it and a baseball. Justin Morneau had signed a few of the balls. The security guard was handing everyone a bag on the way out and when he saw me and my date, he carefully selected some from one corner, then said "Aren't you going to look and see if you got a signed one?" And so we looked and WE BOTH GOT ONE! Thank you Mr. Security Guard. Lesson of the day kids, be nice to the staff!
P.S. My friend Matt, aka my date, doesn't care about baseball and didn't want his ball. I reminded him it was our friend JRod's birthday and I was on my way to see him, so he got Matt's ball. The one I bought went to my friend Kai at his rehearsal dinner before his wedding this weekend. The third I'm keeping!

The only one I know is Justin Cabrera cause he was on the Red Sox when they finally won a world series. He was a short stop. And I didn't know he went to Minnesota. Last I knew he was at Oakland Athletics.
Too cool that you came away with all those signed balls and goodies!
And I have never seen you smile so wide :D

I'm not a big baseball person, so don't know who the players are - but you look SOOO excited in the photos. Looks like fun was had and karma paid off.
