Gwinnett Braves!!

The Atlanta Braves have moved thier AAA minor league team just outside the city- this weekend was the opening of the new stadium and new team- the Gwinnett Braves! Of course in the Chamberlin household- we HAD to go- we LOVE baseball. We bought outfield lawn seats for $6 (Trey and Shelby were free!) The lawn was the perfect place to sit- Trey had plenty of place to play and he really enjoyed it! We actually got to watch the ENTIRE game! WHOA! Anyhow- it was a wonderful time and we plan to spend many afternoons there over the summer!
Here are some pictures:
Here is a shot from where we sat on the grass- and please notice the hairdo of the lady if front of us... interesting....

Trey!Shelby:Chipper, Trey & Shelby:It seems that Shelby loves baseball... Whenever I turn the TV to the Sox or Braves she becomes very still and watches very intently... Then today her over to check out the guys in the Norfolk Tides bullpin warm up- she was so excited at each pitch that she would laugh wildly!! This is the best picture we got of it!Trey got 3 balls from the bullpin of the Norfolk Tides- a friend of mine from High School pitches for them- He was nice enough to give Trey a ball and signed it for him! Trey's favorite part was being able to throw the ball down into the bullpin! (thanks Andy!)It was a wonderful day!!
