Mariner FanFest!!!


The Mariner season is almost upon us....yeah!!! And this month we went to go check out the stadium and get excited about the season at FANFEST! :) The boys were beyond excited!! And though it was pretty darn cold, the Mariners did not disappoint. We ran the bases, checked out the new fences, pitched some strikes like Felix, and even did batting practice! And my favorite part, we got to tour the Mariner clubhouse!!! All these years of being a fan, and I had never been there, so it was really special for me! 

The boys had a blast and said their favorite part was batting practice. The M's had a big screen set up in the visiting club house with Felix on it, looking like he was throwing a pitch. Then the ball comes at you like he is pitching it, at probably about 45 miles an hour. The boys actually got really close to all of the pitches, and had a ton of fun doing it! They didn't even care that they missed all of them, and talked about it for a long time afterwards! :) 
We are so looking forward to the upcoming season! I hope that Miss E is old enough to last through a few games, because I am beyond excited!!
