Father’s Day recap

We took John to a Birmingham Barons baseball game for Father’s Day. They had a special opportunity for Dad’s and kids to play catch on the field before the game (and Mom’s with cameras :). It was HOT!! IMG_4556

Here is a local news cameraman taking some video of John and Hadden. We don’t know if they were on or not – we don’t get that channel.

I enjoyed watching them play. There were quite a few families out on the field – just guessing around 100 people total.

Ready to catch some foul balls. We had bought tickets for seats nearer to the field, but it was so hot, we opted for the “general admission in the shade” seating instead. I was surprised, but the stadium was actually pretty empty.

Since the gates opened at 12:30 and we couldn’t go to our church and get to the game on time, we decided to go to church in the Birmingham area. We tried out Church of the Highlands. It is a very large church with lots of people attending. We joked about the traffic police, parking attendants and drop-off point for the kids made the whole church feel like an airport. The service was good and the kids enjoyed the kid’s area – Savannah even knew a friend there from soccer.

You are a great father every day, John!

Proverbs 20:7 The righteous man leads a blameless life;

blessed are his children after him.
