For Doug's 40th Birthday I got he and Michael tickets for the Cardinals Winter Warm-Up. It is a weekend of autographs, Cardinal speakers, and lots of things to watch and listen to. Basically a big Cardinal convention. Doug had wanted to go the past few years, but we always had something going on. It was last Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
The boys got autographs of past players, tried to win autographs of Pujols or Holliday with some scratch-off tickets, but did not turn up lucky winners. They also heard the General Manager, Mark McGuire, the PA announcer, What's New at Busch stadium... A deluxe stadium tour was won by Michael - who answered a question correct in a question and answer session. The boys got to go in the locker room - and Michael got his picture taken in front of Pujols locker.
Michael already asked on Saturday sometime, if they could come back next year. He was having a great time!
The pictures are not the greatest as we forgot our good camera and we had gotten Michael an innexpensive one (which is not worth much and takes awful pictures) to use - so that is all the boys have. Then, to make matters worse, Michael accidently hit "delete all" on the camera. Doug was able to recover some of the pictures with a program he found on-line - but not all of them.
