Damn Yankees

Shawn and I watched the Yanks vs Braves game last Thursday night. It was a great series, and while the Braves held their own the first night, the ended up losing the next two. The Yanks are a great team with some very loud, dedicated fans...so much so that we were outnumbered! We had so much fun trashin' them though...in a "fun" way. Win or lose, Turner Field & the Braves have offered us lots of fun, many memories, and best of all great baseball. Our next game will be when they take on the Sox this weekend. Go Braves!

Shawn made the Jumbo-tron. He was asked a multiple choice question for a prize. He picked 'C' but the answer was 'B'. I guess his charm worked on the Braves' girls because they gave him the prize anyways: Braves gift bag & a gift card to Dantanna's restaurant.

The heat was getting to Shawn I think.

Intense watching batting practice.


Yummie hot dogs.


Refreshing Coca-Cola on a very hot night.


Go Braves!

We're Connected!

Connected?! you say. Sad, I know, but this is the first time (as of 30 minutes ago) that Shawn and I have had Internet (wireless, at that) and a new laptop in the house since we've known each other. How do you live?! people ask. Well, quite easily, but it was simply necessary to get Internet at the house since I'll be starting my Master's Degree in Education this September. Hopefully this won't be the beginning of a very horrible addiction. Television was, so hopefully I can find self-control with the whole Internet thing. I must say that it will be nice to not have to run to the school where I work to send an e-mail.

Lots of fun happening so far this summer, so updates and pictures to come. It's been lovely catching up with everyone! Never a quiet moment...
