We dressed all the boys up in Braves gear. We have a couple of free hats and then I bought one for Lincoln that I thought was pretty cute. The older boys' shirts were only $3 at Wal-Mart, what a steal! We took pictures of the boys before the game because Henry we felt would be too young to enjoy it and he would be cranky into the night. The game didn't start until his bedtime. 
Henry is wearing Uncle Jer's new hat. When we went to the mall to get a little Braves gear Jer wore his hat and a man in Dillards gave Jer a little nod. Didn't know the guy, but must have been a Braves fan. You can have friends in unexpected places.
Here is one of my favorite pics. Henry is doing well without crying while he is in Uncle Jer's arms. Henry is a bit of a mama's boy right now (okay always).
An all dude shot. I'm glad they at least let me take their pictures. Great brothers having fun.
Henry stayed with our neighbors (Laura & Scott) and then we were off. I worried about Henry and sleeping not in his bed. We dropped him off at about 5:45 and apparently he fell asleep soon after and never woke up until we picked him up late at night. We were excited heading to the stadium. Willie put Linc on his shoulders and Jer had P-man. We took a couple of mits, you know just in case a ball was hit way past third base.
I was able to snag a photo of Jer and Kim just after entering the gate. I kind of wish we could have slowed down enough to get a family photo as well. We had to hurry though because we would be late for the special dealio with Bobby Cox.
Parker and Uncle Jer hangin' tight getting ready for some baseball!
Parker looks pretty excited. Once the actual baseball game started I believe he and Linc enjoyed it fairly well. We went early for a special presentation of Bobby Cox's number 6 being retired.
We saw a few of the greats speak to the crowd and to Bobby. Below is Tom Glavine.
Next we had John Smoltz.
Chipper Jones spoke for the current team.
Good ole Bobby Cox. Thanks.
Bobby Cox threw the first pitch of the game to Chipper Jones. He did a great job. We all loved it.
Aunt Kim and Uncle Jer clearly showing some excitement for the big Braves vs. Cubs game.
The game was really enjoyable. The stands were nearly full. The Braves were hitting home runs like crazy, I think they had a 5 home runs but the final score was 10-4 for the Braves. Here is Willie standing up to cheer on one of the home runs perhaps from Freddie Freeman or Dan Uggla. Willie took Linc and then I was able to watch another home run from either Constanza or Jones. There sure were some smiles on our faces.

This is the view that we had. My camera doesn't zoom too well so we could see more but it is a beautiful sight to look at the field.
Linc and P-man were getting a little ancy and so I took them to tour around a little and we found Mickey Mouse. We also picked up some first time certificates for Jer and Kim.
Parker had a great time.
Parker is taking after me. He told me he wanted to take my picture. Not bad bud.
Well we had lots of excitement from the retiring of Bobby Cox's number to the great game in which the Cub's pitcher was thrown out for throwing one at Jones. We had to top it off with a few Friday night Fireworks.
Before leaving we sat by Greg Maddox's number for a group shot. Linc had become injured as we were leaving Turner Field. His poor toe got cut up a little from something. He was a trooper. He did really well lasting so long after his bed time. (months later he is still doing the tomahawk chop and singing the Braves chant)
