Class Reunion

I had my class reunion this past weekend. I cannot believe that it has been 10 years since I was in High School! It was so nice to see all my friends and classmates that I hadn't seen in a while. To me there is something about being back in your hometown that makes you feel like a kid again!
My besties!
Along with my class reunion, my school had an Alumni Cheerleader event! It was neat to take T and Jess back to where I spent a lot of my time in High School and for them to see me in action. I surprised myself and I actually can still jump and move like I used to. My shoulders were pretty sore the next day, though. 
It was a fun and very eventful weekend! I look forward to doing it again in 10 more years!

Love,
E

Summer Hiatus

I am no stranger to a hiatus on here. Most of you who read religiously know that sometimes I disappear from time to time but always, eventually make my way back to writing and posting new stuff.

This summer's season was what I would call beautifully crazy? We took away so many fun memories but there was so much chaos to it. Jess was a starter then he was moved to the bullpen, then went to spot start and then back to the bullpen, then to start again. This pattern pretty much went on all season and Jess just rolled with it. He did whatever they asked of him and would do the same if he could do it all over again. I envy him for his dedication and strength. I have said it before and I will say it again, that is why he is the athlete and I am the wife.

Jess ended up getting hurt towards the end of the season but thankfully his injury was just normal wear and tear on his arm and he ended the season on the mend-praise God. We spent about half the summer together and half of the season basically everywhere. Through it all, I kept reminding myself to be thankful. Thankful for a job, a place to stay during the season and for family and friends. The family we stayed with was absolutely amazing! We owe them big for opening their home to us and allowing us to have the opportunity to make the memories we made this past summer. They quickly became family and I am so thankful for their kindness, friendship and love.

With the 2015 season now in the books if I have learned anything after 9 seasons of professional baseball it's that every year gets crazier. I know when I am old I will think fondly of these crazy years and smile when I think of how we managed to pack a car full of stuff with promises to to my husband to pack lighter the next year. Titan has made this adventure of ours so much more fun. I tear up watching him learn and see new things and places. God is so good for guiding us through life and I am thankful for every beautifully crazy day of this past season.

I will be posting now that we are home so please check back! Thank you for sticking with me through my hiatus'. I just don't have the heart to post when I am not fully dedicated to what I wrote and with me and T traveling so much I found it hard to sit down and really write. Thank you again, xox.

Love,
E
