Johnson's Journal: Special Time Together

Oma time
Sat Aug. 2nd to Sun. 3rd - Tegan had an overnight at Oma's house (Opa was still in CA.), she was obviously spoiled and enjoyed going to church with Oma the next morning.

Mommy Time
While Tegan was at Oma's, Hailey and I had a Mommy/Daughter date around the neighborhood. We went to Oscar's Taco Shop in the 'hood for dinner,

We had a little french fry smile fun,

and rode around and got an ice cream treat!

Sounds Game!
Sat. Aug 9th - Daddy thought it would be so fun to take the older girls (and me too!) to a baseball game, especially since Nashville was getting a new stadium. We wanted to be able to say we went to the old stadium, too! We were all pretty excited!
But first, Ali got to have her turn for an overnight with Oma, so we dropped little cutie pie off,

and had our 3:00 ice cream, of course.

Then headed to the game!

Well, almost... we were going to pick up our friend Diana to go with us. That was all good and well, until... I may have been responsible for locking us out of the car. Well, partially responsible because in my defense, I believe it is the drivers responsibility to keep the keys with them... not walk away with them in the car for someone else to lock them in when they lock the doors to be safe. Anyhow... since it was going to take too long to go pick up the spare keys and return... we all squeezed into Diana's car. We really should have taken that as our first sign that it wasn't meant to be, because the weather really wasn't looking too good either.
However, although it was pouring when we got there, we made the best of it, and Sweet Tegan decided to sing and dance in the rain,

while Diana and Hailey hurled under a small umbrella that Diana had in her car.

Uh Tegan... I don't think the umbrella will help you much at this point! haha!

Andy and I stood in line (outside) for the ticket window, but even that, we were standing in a puddle of water gushing down the street. There was a lot of rain.

We realized they were probably going to call the game, but we went ahead and went in anyway so we could see the field.

There was no way the field would dry out in time, but we made the best of it and had fun anyhow.

We came, we saw, we laughed, we made memories, even if we didn't actually watch a game.

Well here it is folks, one of the last times we'll get to see Herschel Greer Stadium. They opened in 1978 (what a great year!) They have had " 37 years of hits, 1978-2014"
