FanFest 2011... Baseball Season Is Upon Us!!

Over the weekend we headed to downtown San Diego to partake in the FanFest festivities. The event basically gives locals and tourists a chance to see Petco Park up close and personal and get hyped up before the baseball season starts.. I can't wait to start going to Padre games!! Yet another bonus to moving back to the mainland!! Can you say hot dogs and cotton candy?! We definitely took advantage of this day and ran around like kids.. Here are the pictures to prove it...











And then... we checked out the locker/workout room... ummmmm, yeah....






We just want to go in coach... put us in!!! (if we were hanging out in the dugout, this is what we would look like)..


ALSO, they let us run the bases!!! Of COURSE we HAD to!!







Did you see the look on that little girls face running the bases?? She was not messing around!

GO PADRES!!!


Afterwards we headed to a couple happy hours, but the view from Altitude takes the cake!



...for the love of the game, comraderie, and peanuts...
