Atlanta weekend
On the last night my mom was here, my step-dad, Steve, was so generous and used his points to get us a hotel room in Atlanta! So, we left about noon on Friday to go to the hotel to check in and use the pool, but the traffic in atlanta was so bad because there was a braves game, it was the chic-fil-a bowl where Georgia played Boise State, there was a science fiction dragon convention and I think there was one more thing but I can't remember. Even with the carpool lane it took us forever to get there. We had enough time to swim for about 45 minutes and Cheyenne loved it and did not want to get out. Then we had to hurry and get ready and go to the football game. We stopped by Burger King to eat dinner first. We were playing a private school just outside of Atlanta called Wesleyen. Holy cow, it was so nice! It looked like a wealthy college! Oh and every single car was Lexus, Mercedes, BMW, Cadillac, etc. It was the first time I have seen a Honda look like a lower class car!! Haha... The stadium had beautiful landscaping around it, it was pretty amazing. If I was a millionaire I would probably send my kids there! Anyway, they are always a really good team and they beat us by a field goal in overtime last year and were our only loss up until state. We beat them solidly this year so it was fabulous! After the game the games were lined up facing each other and I thought it was going to be a fight, but then their coach gathered up both teams and they all said a prayer together. It was fabulous to see people remembering the Lord and his significance even in something such as a football game. I love these pictures of the girls playing by the fence, we had a great time! After the game we went back to the hotel and then Mom took the shuttle really early in the morning and caught the first flight home. The girls and I slept in, got the hotel breakfast and then headed to a school in Atlanta area to watch a girl I coached play in a volleyball game for her high school. It was a fun weekend:)
