getting caught up: redhawks game

A combination of the Disney trip, a visit from RV, a trip to the cabin (with no electricity), and Chris leaving for 3 weeks has put me behind on blogging. I'm going to try and get caught up on some things so here goes.

In June some of the OSSM students came back for 3 weeks to start a mentorship program. They would work with mentors around town during the day and in the evening they had activities planned to keep them busy. We volunteered to go with them to the Redhawks game. After living in Memphis for 3 years we had a lot of slip ups and kept saying Redbirds. Elle loved going to the game! It took a year, but she finally warmed up to some of the girls. She didn't want to be near Cooper and Ruby (the mascots), but she liked watching them from afar and has even said she wants to go back and see them. She even got to ride a bus for the first time. This was a little scary at first, but she liked it in the end. I'm planning on taking her one night while Chris is gone. Here's some pics from the game:
