Take me out to the ball game

We went to the Frederick Keys baseball game last night. All of the kids who attended camp wore their camp t-shirts and paraded around the field before the game. Paula and Tess were picked to be "anthem buddies". They ran out on the field with Miguel Abreu, the second baseman and stood with him during the National Anthem. What a great memory!


During the game, Paula cheered on "numero quince, mi amigo Miguel". At one point, he gave her a game ball over the fence and she was sooo excited. After the game, we had to wait for all of the players to leave the dugout so that Paula could see Miguel. He signed her ball and let me take a picture of them together in his game uniform.


Then, Paula ran the bases with all of the other kids. What a great night! Thanks again Frederick Keys for helping make some amazing memories for a very special little girl!
