Independence Day

We have had a lot going on lately but still the month of June has seemed to drag on forever. Work has been crazy and each week has been so packed that they seem really long. Usually when you're busy time goes by quickly...hmmm...not so much as of late. I thought I better get in a pre-4th of July post since I can't seem to sleep past 6 and I will being seeing John and Lindy today. I don't want John to make good on his threat to remove us from his links if we don't update (This is a threat to everyone and John is serious!!;)


Since our last post we bought a new car. Yes scroll WAY back to when Matt's car got hit by a landscaping truck and you will know that we have been looking for a L-O-N-G time. The problem has been that Matt seems to think that "regular" cars are not big enough for him. Whatever, he test drove a TON of SUVs and they just didn't seem to have the space he needed (This was surely an effort on his part to get me to relent and allow him to buy a pickup truck, I didn't budge) Finally he settled on a Honda Accord. This car somehow has enough room for the driver which is the all important issue. As you can see, it took a LONG time to come to this decision. But we are happy, and Matt has the head room that he feels he needs, so all is well. I don't have picture of the car but it looks like the ones that you are seeing on the road wherever you live HA! We picked the same color as Jason and Shannon.


A week and a half ago we went to the Braves game with the Hamilton's. Matt's favorite thing about going with the Hamilton's is that they have a Lexus and therefore can park in the Lexus lot directly across the street from the stadium. This is very convienent and we appreciated the invite.

Here is Madi at the game. It was free hat day so we all got Braves hats as we came into the stadium. (This is why Madi wanted to go so badly) The Braves lost by one run but Chipper Jones did hit a homerun and was able to end the shut out run that they had going. It was an afternoon game so it was pretty hot but we made it all the way to the end of the game.

Not much else is going on, somehow we seems so busy but now that I am sitting here it seems that not that much has really happened. Hopefully I will have a new 4th of July post soon. I can hear fireworks outside (no I am not kidding and yes it is 8:30 AM)
