Playing at Royals Stadium: Family

It seems like it was just a few short years ago my nephew was just a lil' guy playing ball on the playground. Now he's almost 6'5" and is a Freshman starter on Concordia High School's baseball team. Cale's high school was given the opportunity to play baseball at Kauffman Stadium if they sold enough Royals ticket as a fundraiser. When the Booster Club stepped up and bought the remaining 300 tickets - it sealed the deal for the kids, and they could not have been any more excited! I mean, how many people can say they got to play baseball at a professional facility?! What an opportunity! Their opponent: Wellington Napoleon High School! WNHS team is all seniors and CHS are all Sophomores and Freshman! The guys played AMAZING and CHS pulled out the win! Needless to say, I'm a proud Aunt!!

Here's a few of my favorites from the day:





The real hero here is my sister-in-law, Kim. She was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer and just had her second round of chemo prior to coming to the game to watch her son!! What an amazing inspiration!!
