This weekend we took Mac to the UGA vs Utah soccer game on Friday night. UGA looked really good from what little I was able to watch between chasing down Mac and his friend Brooks and being used as a jungle gym. The Dawgs won 3-0 and we were sitting almost next to UGA's starting QB Aaron Murray, so that was cool.
Saturday morning I went for a 5 mile run, continuing my half marathon training. I still have a long way to go before feeling confident enough to try the race. While I was running, Mac and Samantha went for a walk around UGA's intramural fields. Apparently it was very exciting, getting to see dogs and giant caterpillars.
Saturday night we took Mac to his first Braves game. It was a great night except for the North Avenue Trade School nerds sitting behind us who thought they were at a Georgia Tech event. Thankfully Brett and I were able to restrain ourselves and not visit the Atlanta City Police Department.
We were seated one section over but on the same level as the fireworks they shoot after each strike out. Mac loved the "fire."
We had great weather and saw a great game - the Braves won 12-3. Tim Hudson surpassed 1,500 career strike-outs AND had a career high 13 strikeouts. Brett's favorite player Matt Diaz even got a home run.
Before we left we took Mac over to a kids play area. They have a baseline set up to run and he had a great time doing that. As we were getting ready to leave Prado hit a homerun and we were standing right under the Coke bottle that shoots fire works. It was perfect timing.
Check out the pictures to see the awesome seats we had, then check out the highlight video that SportsCenter somehow forgot to include. Unfortunately we forgot the camera so these came from a cell phone with a setting changed from playing with it earlier.
