All-Star Fan Fest

So today was basically baseball nirvana for both my boys.
We spent the afternoon at the All-Star Fan Fest, which Major League Baseball describes as the "world's largest interactive baseball theme park.
I prefer to think of it as "the world's largest indoor market where you can -- and are encouraged to -- spend your annual salary on stuff you really don't need."
My big kid (that would be Jim) had a great time wandering from booth to booth, checking out cards, pins, bats and other paraphernalia, and my little kid (that would be Scott) just had a blast checking out everything and anything inside the Phoenix Convention Center.
My parents were kind enough to give us their two extra tickets into Fan Fest, and they met us down there before heading over to the Legends Game.

Eating our ticket and waiting for daddy.

Scott and daddy figure out which exhibit to tackle first.

The coolest exhibits, in my opinion, were the displays that included the World Series and MVP trophies, the Cooperstown exhibit, with a whole bunch of famous stuff from the Baseball Hall of Fame, and the Hometown Heroes exhibit, which recapped the team history and highlights of the Arizona Diamondbacks.
We also had a blast watching part of an exhibition T-ball game, featuring some aspiring young players not much older than Scott.

Checking out the World Series trophy.

Grandpa Scott and baby Scott...Tank adores his grandpa. Can you tell?

Scott seemed oddly fascinated by daddy's drink.

Mommy's lone picture with Scott on what was most definitely "a boys day out."

Jim, Scott and I topped off our afternoon at Majerle's Sports Grill where Scott dined on french fries, cheese quesadilla, a couple of bites of chili and a little bit of mommy's bbq chicken. 
(Yes, I know...I'll have to make sure to up his vegetable quotient tomorrow.)
