Cardinals Training Camp 2017

On Friday since I was off we decided to head out to Cardinals Training Camp. Last year I took the girls with my brother-in-law and we had a lot of fun (HERE) so I knew I wanted to take the girls again this year. Justin was able to get off work a little early as well so he could come too. I really like taking the girls to Cardinals Training Camp for a couple of reasons. They love the Cardinals but taking them to an actual game would just be ridiculous and expensive and not worth it so this is awesome because it is completely free. Also, in the dead of summer, it is awesome to have an air conditioned activity for the kids. This year they had a little kid zone which was fun for the kids to do some football drills. Honestly they are happy just running around the stadium and snacking on popcorn while we drink a couple beers. It really is a win for everyone. My niece was also able to make it and meet us there with her son so the girls really had a great time. I would assume it is busier on the weekends but it has not been bad on Fridays so I would definitely recommend it!

 

 

Awesome Friday afternoon

Breaking out our Cardinals gear

Cardinals Training Camp

Last Friday I had the day off so I decided to take the girls to the Arizona Cardinals Training Camp out at University of Phoenix Stadium. It is only like a 15-20 minute drive for us and Everly actually gets really into the Cardinals since Justin is a fan so I thought it would be fun. My brother-in-law Tony and niece Mae met us there. It was actually really cool to see them run some plays. They actually had pads on and everything and it was nice and air conditioned in the stadium. You could have had beer too but I didn't (although I wanted to). I think if you were a big fan it would be totally fun to just sit there and watch them practice because you just don't get to see that often. I think just the sheer massiveness of the stadium was exciting for the girls. They had fun chasing each other around and best part of all it is completely free! Well, I did buy the girls some French fries but you can totally go for free if you want! I definitely would like to take them again next year!

 

Of course we had to bust out their cheerleader dresses. Ev's was a little short though so we added leggings.

 

not too crowded at all

French Fry monsters!

I can't handle this cuteness.
