J and A in front of the Third Day stage. Doesn't Alex look cool? (sorry, my battery was dying so these pictures are really pewey!!)
After the concert Jerod and Alex had to leave their mark.
Me and my boys! Alex really was happy, but with 5 stitches, it's hard to smile!
There are no words for this picture.
This was Alex really getting into it!
Jerod and Greg jumping!
Waiting for the concert to start, Jerod looks sleepy, but he really wasn't!
Heading into the concert, they were excited! Can't you tell from their faces?
So yesterday, wasn't so great, today was MUCH better! We went to see one of our FAVORITE bands, Third Day, in concert. It was awesome!! We had so much fun and just felt happy to be alive! Five years ago before we left for Mexico, Greg and I went to a Third Day concert and felt so moved and so motivated because we knew we were exactly where God wanted us. We were stepping out on faith and scared to death all at the same time. Almost all of their songs spoke to us and we just felt so encouraged.
So, we have now come full circle and we are experiencing the concert with different eyes and a different spirit. Now their songs mean even more to us because we hung onto many of their songs when we were met with a crisis in our village or when we were discouraged or sad or homesick. When someone asks me what I believe, I just want to sing their song, Creed. That is what I believe. Now you all have to google the words to that song to find out exactly what I believe! :o) So, it was a great night, a true refreshment to my/our soul! If you haven't ever been to a Third Day concert, you just have to go, it's AWESOME!! Once we return to Mexico, I will be able to reflect on this night and hold it as a great memory that we made while home for our year!Love you all! Pray for Alex tomorrow as he sits on the sidelines and watches the football game played without him! Oh, I forgot to mention that Annie had a great time with her babysitter playing about 20 board games and watching a movie. That is her kind of fun! She isn't a Third Day fan, YET!
