A few weeks ago, we had the HUGE privilege of going to 2 of the Rockies v. Giants game here in Colorado. Aaron has always been a Giants fan and his best childhood memories are driving up to San Francisco with his family to see the Giants play. When we got married, I knew I would be adopting this team as my own. Luckily for me, the Giants won the World Series last year so it hasn't been very hard to get excited about them. And, as a young female, Brian Wilson certainly has helped :) Not only is he a great pitcher, he is quirky, funny, weird and SO CUTE! He has unfortunately been on the DL for most of this year, but made his return for one inning during their game against the Rockies. Yes, I had my camera. Yes, I was screaming. Yes, I went running down toward the field to get the best pictures I could. Here, mixed in with some other game photos, documents my love affair. Oh, and by the way, I majorly cut down the amount of pictures for the post - I have tons more!
yesssssss
This kid, Fontenot, is from Slidell, Louisiana!
Pablo Sadoval, another of our favorite players

You are not alone in your Brian Wilson obsession! LOVE him and all his hilarious videos! Although I do think he is much cuter without the beard...but I guess that's part of his charm! haha
To be honest, when Aaron told me we were likely moving to Fort Wayne, Indiana....I wasn't thrilled at the geographical part of that statement. I didn't know much about the midwest and thought that Fort Wayne was a tiny town with lots of cows, corn and not much else. Thankfully, I was wrong! Fort Wayne is actually awesome. There are TWO Chick-fil-a's, lots of parks and playgrounds, rivers that run through, an awesome Children's zoo and much more. Here just a quick snapshot of some of the fun we've had this summer in Indiana. Camping - friends invited Aaron and the big boys on their first overnight tent camping experience! This state park was just 45 minutes from our house. I came up with the littles, then left way late to sleep in our own beds! The next morning they got to canoe! Hiking - we had a goal of hiking each Saturday morning that was free this summer, and we succeeded twice! Once in town, and once just about an hour away. So fun to be in the ...
this kid cracks me up Just like every mom, I say this every month, but I can't believe he is already 5 months! I'm not going to lie, this event has really caused me to kick my mommy-ness into gear. It is time to get this kid together, ha! So this week I have been really intentional about making sure we get lots of tummy time in, practicing rolling over, lots of time in the bumbo chair and on the couch sitting up and being super silly to pull out those giggles! And honestly, we're having the best time! Not that I wasn't doing these things before, but I had a bit more laid back approach assuming that he'll just learn things on his own. And he will, but now I'm just more up in his face pushing him along! We got over being sick, for the most part, at the end of last week. Since he had been sick, I'd been rocking him a lot more, going into his room during naps/nighttime almost every time he cried, putting the pacifier back in his mouth, etc. Well, let me t...
Aaron has officially started his second year of seminary! To commemorate, I thought I'd paste the answers to some questions we were both recently asked. A way to get an idea of both sides of our life right now. My answers: How did you spend your summer? We had the best summer! Aaron took Hebrew in June and July, and I had my first summer as a stay at home mom. We went to the beach, pool, the library, visited Chicago and came to Alexandria twice!! What are you most looking forward to (in your 2nd year at Seminary)? The “cloud” over the 2nd year is getting ready for our vicarage. We’ll meet with the placement director in October and will find out the location in April! So there will be lots of hypothetical conversations, wishlists and prayers leading up to that! Otherwise, I’m excited that we’ll be just minutes away from our church and school. I hope to get our whole family to matins more weekdays than not and Canon will begin a first communion class this ...
