The 'Dres


Our church made tickets available for the Padres game last Friday night. It was one of those "Christian" events where they had fireworks and testimonies after the game (how else are you going to get people to a Padres game).

It was a lot of fun to hang out with the church outside of the church (mmmmhhhh!!!).

Peter (new high school director), his wife katie, Stephanie (newer childrens director), her two little girls (cute!), and Jen and I all cruised down to go to the game together.

We got to downtown at around 6:30, walked toward the stadium, and then stopped at Rock Bottom Brewery for a quick bite to eat. We had a great meal hanging out, sharing stories, talking about life and ministry. As we were leaving Peter and I looked at a TV nearby televising the game and we realized it was already the bottom of the 6th.

We laughed and then took off for the game. We didn't get in our seats until the top of the 8th. We were one inning late and missed the only highlight of the game; the pirates scored 1 run in the top of the 7th and won the game 1-0. Really we only missed 1 inning because the first 6 were pretty useless.

We watched 2 meaningless innings and then the game ended. We then watched an entertaining fireworks show and went home. Great night!
