Sue, ShellieMay looks perfectly dressed to visit Radiator Springs! She looks like she'll be right at home in Flo's V8 Cafe! Those suitcases are so perfect too. I love all of your vintage details.

Sue, your Shellie May is TOO CUTE! Well, she always is, but she's cracking me up!
MikkiMausu, now I'm hungry. :P I hope Duffy got to eat that delicious donut!
Tiny Duffy and Tiny Shellie May made a new friend on vacation.

(My 5-month-old nephew was loving on that bear...particularly, he enjoyed eating the ribbon. When do you think he will be old enough for a Duffy?)
Sue, your costumes just get better and better! What beautiful costume design and expert sewing skills. I've been enjoying the photos so much and can't wait for the road trip to Radiator Springs!
Shellie May's photo with her postcard and trunk and suitcase has now become my desktop background!
Hello! I wanted to share another picture! :)

Your Duffy is as much of a foodie as Aimster's!^^
I want to share a Duffy photo:

Made a sketch drawing of Duffy posing for a photo in front of the Tokyo SkyTree.
It would be a dream come true for a Duffeteer visting Japan.
What do you guys think?
This is cute MikkiMausu!Quote:

MikkiMaussu99, I have been with my Duffy seeing the Tokyo Sky Tree and yes, it's a dream :)
Took Duffy to the Rays/Tigers game last night and we had an adventure!
We got there early because I had to stop at Will Call to pick up my post-game concert wristband (Earth, Wind & Fire were performing!), which allowed us to go on the field (the stage is set up in center field). It was HOT out, so we went into the team store to look around (and enjoy the air conditioning).
It's DJ Kitty (in plushie form)

It was "Turn Back the Clock" night! They were paying homage to the 70s. The Rays didn't exist then (they didn't come until 1998), but they had awesome retro inspired uniforms made up and the Tigers wore their 70s throwback uniforms as well.

We hung out by the dugout before the game with some of our fellow members of Rodney's Archery Club (for our closer, Fernando Rodney, as he shoots an "arrow" when he gets a save). We brought cookies to share!

They made Duffy pose with the creepy/evil Zim Bear (a little teddy bear with the face of the Rays senior basebeball advisor Don Zimmer). Duffy was NOT happy about that. Creepy little bear!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7641.jpg
Hey look, it's Prince Fielder!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7634.jpg
We met Brooks Conrad!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7651.jpg
OMG! Jeff Keppinger! He seemed to love Duffy and said to me, "I want to know what the deal with him is!" I said, "This is Duffy! He follows you on Twitter!" He just laughed.
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7659.jpg
We also met Elliot Johnson!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7669.jpg
Hey! It's Wolverine... I mean Luke Scott!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7681.jpg
Look at all the people!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7690.jpg
Let's go Rays!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7691.jpg
Duffy wants you to follow @RACRays on Twitter!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7694.jpg
The Rays lost (boo!), but the post-game concert was awesome! I've been a fan of Earth, Wind & Fire since I was a little kid, so this was a dream come true to finally see them!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/100_7740.jpg
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/IMG_2718.jpg
Even though the Rays lost, they still light the dome orange for the concerts.
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...2/IMG_2722.jpg
Duffy said he wanted this car. Me too!
http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/...100_7794-1.jpg
And that's all!

First, WOW... I feel like I just watched "Adventures in Duffysitting." This story just has so much energy!:yea:Quote:

Thanks a lot, Aims.;)Quote:

Heh! This wasn't Duffy's first concert either. We saw The Go-Go's after a Rays game last summer.Quote:

LMAO! I'm getting a retro jersey for myself. They didn't have the size I need (adult small), so I had to order one, but they're backordered. Hopefully they'll get them in soon. If only BAB carried it! Oh well, at least Duffy has a normal Rays uniform and a Rays t-shirt he can wear to games & stuff.Quote:

Actually it was his idea to bring the cookies to share with everyone. We had a sub from the deli at Publix, Twizzlers & Skittles to munch on during the game. That one thing I love about Tropicana Field & the Rays. They let you bring in your own food/snacks and bottled water. How many professional sports stadiums out there do that? None, I think. I save a TON of money.Quote:

Oh totally. My friends who went to Friday's game and got a Zim Bear were reporting the following day their Zim Bears were doing things to other stuffies in the house and eating and drinking everything in site. And there's 10,000 of these on the loose so far! The Rays announced they're giving another 10,000 away at another game later this year (due to popular demand). I still say it'll suck your soul while you're sleeping.Quote:

I usually don't hang out by the dugout before games anymore (stopped doing that pretty much in the mid-90s when I still lived in Michigan). I only did yesterday because that's where my friends were hanging out pregame. I would love to get a photo with Evan Longoria or Carlos Peņa though.Quote:

As for Kep, as you know my Duffy has his own Twitter account. He's up to over 100 people following him now! Well, Duffy also follows Jeff and tweeted him a couple times earlier in the week asking if he'd be willing to pose for a photo with Duffy's "fluffy self". Jeff never responded but I'm sure he saw the tweets and probably recognized Duffy (his current Twitter avatar is a pic of him in his Rays uniform).
Oh It's nothing really. Chevy is a partner with the Rays, so they have some Chevy brand cars parked outside the Trop on display and this is just a Chevy Sonic with a custom Tampa Bay Rays wrap on it (the actual car is orange). But that's pretty cool, huh?Quote:
What's that car all about? Enquiring minds want to know!:???:
Hi Aimster! Great story and picture from the Rays Game! :thumbup:
Happy Fourth of July from Lil D and Duffette!
