Yesterday was an eventful day.  We drove home from Destin and made it back in just over 5 hours.  That was a small miracle considering that every policeman in the entire country was sitting on the side of the road hand-picking whose 4th of July they would enhance with the one page promotional piece they like to give out occasionally After that, it was off to Cauble Park in Acworth to celebrate Independence Day with over 15,000 of our closest friends.  I did the opening prayer for the thing, got to hang out a little with one of our Senators, spend some time with the crew from FreedomChurch, and meet some new people as well.  I guess I should mention that it was a historic year as well. For the first time in the past 6 years, neither Lexi or London were terrified of the fireworks.  Once Lexi stopped being weirded out by the whole ordeal - London came along and took her place.  Now that is over.  Not sure if that makes me happy or a little sad.
