SO COOL!

This week has been a tough one. Adam has IMPACT which is a community wide youth service week. Several churches in the area participate and the youth all come together, split into groups, and do service projects in the community, then in the evening they get back together for a time of worship. It is really great...but Adam is working 7 am to 10 pm every day. It is tough.

A month or so ago we decided to take advantage of a special opportunity through Sharpsburg Youth Baseball League to Parade around Turner Field before the game tonight against the Florida Marlins. We jumped on the opportunity, got the tickets, and then realized it was IMPACT week. So, we decided just to not go...BUT someone (thanks Laura!) decided to take our youth to the evening worship session so Adam could be with Kal and go to the game.

So, we went, we walked the field, and it was SO COOL! Kal was very much in awe...but so were Adam and I. Poor Kamden was not feeling well. He had a bit of a fever and it was super dooper hot (90s) so needless to say he was miserable. Kal got to say "hi" to Brian McCann, and Adam said "hi" to anyone in a Braves uniform...and they were kind enough to respond and wave! It was GREAT!

We stayed and watched the game for a while but poor Kamden was having a hard time holding out... so we left early. We got home, turned on the game, and THEN watched Chipper hit his 400th home run!!! UGH, we just missed it in person! That's okay though.

Will try to post more later, until then...

How fun! LOL at Adam! The pictures are great! Just one more set to add to his montage when he actually plays for the Braves! He'll hit his 400th homerun and they'll want to show his childhood love of the Braves!!
