YMCA dinner

Our fall calendar is full of YMCA events. Tonight was the first of these events. We traveled to Decatur to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Decatur/DeKalb branch.

Jack and Lynne joined us for this celebration because this is the branch Jack worked with during his time with the Metro Atlanta YMCA.

The event was at the Decatur courthouse and was very nice. After a reception they had a brief ceremony (Jack was recognized!) and then we mingled with other staff, volunteers, and supporters.




Since this was not a kid friendly event, we went searching for a sitter. We were so blessed that two past YMCA teens were willing to travel from Athens for the night. It meant so much that Celeste and Minutha were willing to make the hour long trek to spend time with our boys. I know Jackson LOVED having them here and from all the pictures they took, it looks like Philip had fun too. Thank you, girls! You are awesome!

Minutha and Celeste didn't want to just watch TV so they decided to make cupcakes with Jackson for a special treat! Here is Jackson with "Miss Nutha"

When we got home, Minutha let Jackson play with her camera and he took this family shot - not bad!
