The Sannes Boys: Minnesota Twins !!!!!!

We had an awesome weekend in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

We arrived on Thursday night ready to go to the Minnesota Twins games over the weekend. Paul, Will and Jack went to Twins games on Friday night, Saturday afternoon and then everyone went on Sunday afternoon. We had a lot of fun! Some of Paul's family went also, so we had a pretty big group. On Saturday morning we went to the Twins pro shop and met Bert Blyleven. He is now a Twins announcer, but was a previous pitcher. He was so nice and very friendly. He visited with everyone and was actually kind of funny. Charlie and mommy spent time at the Mall of America and swimming at the hotel while they were at the games. We couldn't wait for Sunday to come so we could all go to the game. We all had Twins shirts and I had found some Twins tattoos back in March so all the kids had tattoos on their cheeks. We had a blast at the Metrodome. We all got homer hankeys when we got inside, so everyone was waving them whenever the Twins did something awesome, which was often. The crowd roared and everyone was on their feet! I couldn't believe how loud it got in there. Of course we had to have some snacks, we had hotdogs, cotton candy, cracker jacks and pop. The twins won, so they had to play Detroit on Tuesday night. Paul did consider getting tickets for that game, but it wouldn't have worked out. Twins won on Tuesday night so they are the AL Central Division Champions. They will play the New York Yankees on Wednesday afternoon.

Lets go Twins!

It was kind of bittersweet leaving the metrodome, that was the last time we will watch the Twins in the metrodome. Next year they will be playing outside in their new baseball field. We hope to go to "Target Field" next year to see them play again.

It would be awesome if they could be in the world series this year!

Cheer for the Minnesota Twins today!
