My view at the Cubs game...

So this afternoon I was at Wrigley Field and I would like you to see the view that I had to dodge most of the game. First of all, why? Why is this the shirt that he chose to put on this morning. Was he really looking for an answer? Personally, I would like to kick him in the wiener for thinking that shirt was OK to wear. Honestly...

Aside from the ridiculous view, I saw what I like to refer to as home run derby. The cubs put on quite a batting display as they put Pitsburg to shame. To top it all off, the brewers are another game back. Cub fans, this is the year! Keep the W's a rolling.

Co-Rec has begun

Game Highlights

• Nick Plassman struck out 13 batters in slow pitch softball. This is his first season pitching!
• Our ladies kinda put on a display in the field and carried the team for a bit! It's always fun when the girls play better than the boys. It doesn't happen very often so it has to be celebrated when it occurs!
• Short little muscle man from the other team came up swinging as hard as he could on two different occasions. Not only did he strike out, but he looked like a fool... slow pitch strike outs are the best comic relief!

Our fall season of Co-Rec softball is underway. Our team is starting off the season with a 4-2 record but I am believing that we are going to make it the whole way this year. I think my favorite part about this season is the fact that two of my worlds are coming together. We were looking for players this year and I was able to recruit some friends from school to join us. I feel like there is a lot of times in life that I live in separate worlds and I don't know as that is a good thing. I have church friends, work/school friends, college friends, high school friends but I never really do a lot to bring all the worlds together. Is that right? I am not sure, but I think I need to work a little less at being a good friend and start being a influential friend.

StuCo Kick Off

On wednesday, we launched our student community for the fall. We have done quite a few changes this semester and with all the change and excitement comes this stomach twisting feeling of nerves. It was awesome! I truly believe that God showed up in huge ways. We had a record number of students for both the junior high and the high school students. The yellow box was transformed into this amazing connecting space and phenomenal worship space. It couldn't have been any better. We have two Nintendo Wii's, a great place for students to buy dinner and snacks, ping pong, basketball, dodgeball, Foosball and then students go into this amazing new auditorium to hear a message and do some singing. This year is going to be awesome! I am pretty blessed to be a part of something this great!
