Weekend excitement

What a fun weekend! Here's some highlights...

Friday night, we went to the Astro's game with Julie and Justin Lenamon. Such fun! The Astro's played the Red Sox (aparently a really good team) and the 'Stros lost...badly. Not a big downer for me though. Watching the people arouns us was much more interesting. I love to people watch and try to guess the lives they're living. Do they have kids? Are they happy? Where have they come from?

One interesting person we observed all night was the man selling concessions up and down the seats. Wow, what a hard worker who took his job seriously! His big selling point was that his drinks were cold. Instead of just carrying a few drinks at a time to sell, he carried around his entire cooler of ice with the drinks all the time. He kept reminding us, "What is this stuff? That's right, its ice and that makes things cold!!" It seems there's some politics involved in the concessions people as well. When our guy left periodically, someone would come steal his section and this didn't make our guy happy when he returned. A whole world I've never really thought about before.

We also had a COR group event with our Sunday School class and the theme was ROCK BAND! If you don't know what Rock Band is, please let me know and I'll explain, or better yet, you can just come over and try it. The group had a blast and really got into it. Ben shocked and awed them all with his amazing singing and super skills and I wasn't too bad either :). This is a pic of our fearless COR group leaders rockin' out - Rachael and Nathan Herrington! Thanks everyone for a fun time!
