All Star Fan Fest


On Monday, Dave and I went to good ol' Saint Louis for the All Star Fan Fest.  It was quite interesting (even for girls)!  Dave loved EVERYTHING, but my favorite was meeting player from the AAGPBL (All American Girls Professional Baseball League).  For those of you unfamiliar of this league, this is the group that took over for men's professional baseball during the World War II era.  These are the women featured in the movie, "A League of Their Own".  As a lifetime softball lover, I really enjoyed meeting and talking with these women that played such a unique part of American sports' history.  One of the ladies was even in the hollywood film with Rosie O'Donnell and Madonna.  Overall, the day was jam packed with fun.  The atmosphere downtown was fun to experience with all the all-star hype.  Dave and I both had a great time!

Aww...that sounds like so much fun! Drew really misses Cardinal baseball! He would have loved to be there to experience that! He and Dave would be such good friends if we only lived closer and they could hang out more! Maybe someday.... :) Glad you guys had a great time!
