Birthday sorbet! I made a good wish : )

I had an incredible day yesterday. I woke up and Beau had me open his gift, a new iPhone!!!!!!!!!!!! If you couldn't tell from all the exclamation points, I was OVER THE MOON excited! My husband is amazing : )  Then went for a run with Abbey. Yesterday, our local running store, Soul 2 Soul, posted on Facebook that if we let them know when and where we were running, they would find us and let us spin a wheel and win a prize. And they found us!!!! Out of the 100 people that posted where they would be, they hunted me and Ab down and we won a $10 giftcard and a Nurtrition Pack. I was really excited : ) The bug guy came and sprayed for ants (our house in infested so to get rid of them was a very special birthday gift ha ha). We headed to Verizon to switch over my numbers, had a lovely lunch with Beau and Kensie and then headed to Soul 2 Soul to buy myself a birthday gift. My parents and my Papa gave me money and I decided to purchase a Garmin, a watch you wear when you run to track pace, time and distance. Wore it this morning and I love it! Then came home to get ready for birthday dinner at the VP with a few friends and family! What a wonderful day : ) 25 is a good age!

A Sunday evening at the Vannette's!

Yesterday, it FINALLY cooled off to a lovely 82 degrees and I was in heaven! This weather is way over due but it's back into the 90s this week : ( Hey, take it where you can right? Mom and Dad are off to visit Lizzy tomorrow so they're going to miss my birthday on Wednesday. Thus, we had a little pre-bday dinner at their house and it was the best night ever! My camera ran out of juice but I did snap a few great photos of our little munchkin : )

National Champions!

The fabulous resort the Clippers put us up in! Golf course, pool, spa...

This is one of 4 bins full of champagne bottles popped in the clubhouse, boys...

At the very, I mean very, last minute, I booked a flight to Albuquerque, NM to meet my husband and watch he and the Columbus Clippers compete for the National AAA Title. What a great last minute decision! I had such a wonderful time and made tons of great memories. We WON and Beau was amazing! 2-4 with an RBI single and solo home run. Got to see my girls and spend some quality time with them before off-season officially started. We are finally home, flew in yesterday morning and nothing could be better than being in our home together as a family. Let the off season begin!
