First Concert
Last month we took Benjamin to his first and Toby & Seth's first major recording artist concert, Steven Curtis Chapman at Busch Gardens. It was about "900 degrees" and the concert was outside. It was a "Faith and Family" type of event with several contemporary Christian artist. Of course, SC2 was the last (we missed the first several while visiting some of the animals).
It was a good concert, but he did not perform Toby & Seth's favorite song, The Great Adventure (coincidently the theme for summer camp that I got asked to pastor a couple of weeks later) which includes the beloved line: "Saddle up your horses..." If you don't know the song, it can be performed upon request by either of the oldest two Pitton boys. The absense of this song was a "great disappointment" to the extremely hot, exausted and tired boys. However, when the crowd refused to leave after the last song, the band returned to do one more song...you guessed it! The day was saved, with the exception of Seth's poor feet--he had insisted on wearing his crocs (sandels) that are too small, without socks all day and had developed some pretty impressive blisters (sorry, no pictures!).
