5 hours, 1 minute and 13 innings later....

Last night Jess' team played a 5 hour game! Ahhhhh! It was the longest night ever! We finally walked thru the door of our apartment at 12:22 am. It was so long and I was starving! Jess pitched the top of the 8th. He came in for a pitcher to get 2/3 of the inning. Finally in the bottom of the 13th Matt Carpenter hit a single and Tyler Greene scored from 2nd base! Thank you Sweet Baby Jesus! Here is a picture of the boys celebrating!


On Monday Jess did an interview with some Arkansas news guys. They were headed down to SEC meetings and stopped in Memphis to spend some time with him. Here is the uncut version of it....


I hope yall enjoy it!

15 days later....

Uhh....can you say WOW? My last post was on the 3rd of July! I am now staring at my calendar that says the 18th of July! How did that happen? I must be looking at the wrong date? Right!?!? Unfortunately for me and you (those of you who still even read this blog) the month of July is flying right on by. Pretty soon yall will be school clothes shopping and I will be packing up an in season apartment so we can head on down the road to our next destination!

Its funny you know....its funny how when you become an adult time just passes right on by in front of your eyes and you dont even realize it until it has passed! There is so much I want to do or wanted to do and I feel like now the years just keep passing and I never do them. In just over 7 weeks Jess' regular season will be over. This season has been a crazy one and now looking at the months that have came and gone it is a fast one too!

Seeing that I havent posted in 15 days I will have you know that I was very busy! July 4th I drove to my parents house and had a fun day with my mom, sister and our cousin Kinsley! My dad had to work so we met him and my uncle Mark for a 4th of July dinner. After that we went home to hangout, watch some tv and get ready for the next day. The next morning I had a Final at 8am. After my Final me, my mom and sister went to Dallas for lunch and some shopping! My mom got us a room at the W Hotel in Downtown and we stayed the night there! That night we went to dinner at a really nice gluten free restaurant for my sisters birthday. My dad then met us at a Tattoo parlor so my sister could get a tattoo for her birthday. It was a HILARIOUS event let me tell you! I was laughing so hard I was crying! The next day we went home and me and my sister had lunch with my mom and her office. Then we went and got "feathered" which is where they put feathers in your hair and pedicures. That night I went to dinner with all my best friends except Mary because she lives in Shreveport. Its so nice to catch up with them. One of them just got engaged, one of them is pregnant and due in September and the other just moved in with her boyfriend. Exciting things are happening with them and I loved hearing all about it!

That next morning me my mom and my sister headed to Round Rock for Jess' 4 game series. When we got there we went and had lunch with Jess and his mom and dad at Chili's! My dad had to drive up the next day because he had to work so thats why he didnt come with us. The next day was Friday which was my sisters actual birthday! We went horseback riding in the Hill Country and it was a TON of fun! I really enjoyed the time there with our families. Being apart really makes those times together fun and special. I could go on and on about what we did and how fun it was but I wont bore you! I hope yalls Monday isnt a "Typical Monday" today!
Love,

Happy 3rd of July!

WooHoo! We are now in the month of July! I love summer! I just love everything about it, but thats not saying much because I love Fall and Winter too!

This 4th of July Jess will be in Nashville and I will be in Texas. I usually go on the Nashville trip but since the Round Rock trip follows the Nashville one I decided to sit this one out and go on the next Nashville trip. I am going home to kick things off for my sisters birthday! We have a ton of fun things planned and I cant wait to make a week of it. Im so happy to be able to spend the week with my family and Jess'! My sister's birthday is on the 8th and my dads is on the 11th and Im soooo excited to be able to be there for their birthdays!

This week has been pretty normal. We had an off day on Wednesday and we went to brunch then to a movie and then to dinner! It was a nice day! I love being able to spend time with him like that, especially when he has been gone for a week!

I made 4th of July cupcakes for the team since they were going to be on the road tomorrow and probably not going to get any special attention.


They were Funfetti with Red, White and Blue Sprinkles! They were yummy! I love baking, I wish I had more utensils that we traveled with so I could bake more! 

Next week I will be at my parents so I will be baking my sister a Gluten Free cake with Gluten Free Icing! Kind of Hard but I can do it!

I hope yall have a good Holiday Weekend! See yall soon!
Love,
