Baseball Hall of Fame

We got the oppertunity to ride the train from the Dreampark to the city then go to the Baseball Hall of Fame. It was really cool to be there and see all the stories and such of all these amazing players, managers, men, and women of baseball. we first went through the room with all the inductees. There are so many of them. This is me standing next to someone, i'm not sure who it was but my mom was really excited about it!
We then went to a movie about baseball. it was 13 minuets. PERFECT for my attention span! Audra then got a scavenger hunt for Logan so he could get a scout patch. Rachel and I tagged along with them as my mom and Ben enjoied the Hall of Fame together. We were them maybe another hour and a half and my brother and mom were there for 4 or 5 hours! I dont think I could have done that.
After the Hall we went and looked around town at the shops and got some pizza before returning back to the park and then we went home.

PSA: You Didn't Win Halloween & Neither Did I

Last night my social media feed was filled with photos of friends attending their weekend parties in their Halloween costumes. There were a couple families and friend groups who were the cast of Napoleon Dynamite, a hilarious couple who went as their dogs, Curious George and the man in the Yellow Suite, and even Tess and Emily Tyler (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen from Billboard Dad). People are so creative when it comes to Halloween costumes! I am so not! But then I saw a couple’s costume I was so unbelievable uncomfortable with. alloween It was on Snapchat. Two people, one had painted himself brown to depict a character, a “hero” from a TV show we all watched in high school. Not just face painted, but arms, neck, chest. Then they added the chains. This, to that couple was a costume, but this also has a name, and that name is “blackface”. Minstrel shows started in the mid to late 19 th century, where white actors would paint their face to depict blacks on stage. The acto...

Who Used All the Black Crayon?

Guys, I am used to about 14 views each post. That's it (which is weird, because I post every blog link to my family's Facebook group and there are 40 of us in there... Thanks guys!). I was not expecting that many hits on one post, but I got it, and it has sparked a lot of conversation that I feel to be very productive. I have been so honored by the respect I have been given from those who’s opinions differ from mine, and the dialogue we have been able to have on the matter of race in today's society. Some of the best conversations have come from the, "But why?" question. But why is that offensive? On Facebook I shared this Vox link , so I won't get into that, but I do want to take some time to talk about taking offense. Life is a collection of experience. After one is written into our book, the next experience will be affected because of it. In kindergarten, I had a true Corrina, Corrina experience in class, when someone asked, "Who used all ...

Note To Self:

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything! And even longer since I’ve posted anything super personal- There is so much you can get out of music. There is an amazing connection you can feel through it. The lyricism and melody speak in a way basic words just cannot, so a lot of times I let the music tell my story. If my current life were a movie, this would be the soundtrack, was the assignment that I just continue. So, here’s my post. It’s short and simple, except not. Because right now my life is messy, complicated, and really confusing. My Life Sounds Like: 1. Cheers to the Fall -Andra Day 2. Save Myself -Ed Sheeran 3. FEEL. -Kendrick Lamar 4. Details in the Fabric (Feat. James Morrison) – Jason Mraz 5. A Little Dive Bar in Dahlonega -Ashley McBryde ...
