- Casey (my 13 year old son) and I started out the night having a great dinner at Whistle Stop (a great little spot in downtown Kennesaw)....their country cooking is delicious!!
- When we drove up in the NStar parking lot (we are located right across from North Cobb High)I saw tons of people tail-gating in our lots......that was so sweet!! (The food looked good as well!!)
- Along with Chick-Fil-A, NorthStar hosted the "Civil War Classic" football game between Kennesaw Mountain & North Cobb High Schools.......it was incredible to see around 30 NorthStar people working the concession stands and serving so the parents of players could watch their kids play!!
- I stood in the end zone area and literally talked to people all night and met tons of people that are coming to NStar now and also saw tons of other NStar families & students that were at the game.....it is so great to have lived in an area long enough to really feel a part!
- It was so cool to look on both sidelines and see coaches/players & administrators that are a part of NStar and to see the two chaplains for both teams (Marlon/KMHS and Emory/NCHS) and know they are on our team!! Those guys give a ton of time to their teams!
- I sat for few minutes last night and remembered when all of this was just a "dream" and we prayed that one day God would give us some influence in our community.....we are not totally there yet but I think we are heading in the right direction!!
- After the game - our student ministry hosted an "After-Party" along with Destiny Church in our parking lot - kudos to Brad & Nick and their teams for making the night happen!
Only "Downers" last night.....
- KMHS had a rough night - felt sorry for them, they have the most awesome coaching staff in the world and they really love those boys!
- My wife's WVU Mountaineers went down to South Florida......probably good that I was not home to see.....she was pretty hacked with them! Being a GT Fan - we are used unfulfilled expectations!!

It is cool to serve others so that the Moms can watch the children...didn't happen that way when our kids were growing up...what does that mean? I know :)
