1 year anniversary

Yes we have been married almost 2 years, yes the title is correct. 1 year ago last week we purchased the condo we now live in. I wanted to add some pictures of our lovely abode. In fitting fashion as soon as summer hits and after we have had the place for a year, our ac decides not too work correctly. It is a little warm in the house but hoping to have it fixed this week.

Saturday night we went to the casino for the amazing buffet with some friends. While waiting for them to get there i decided to try my luck and ended up winning 110 bux for the night, I was happy.

Happy father's day to all the fathers reading. I spent a couple hours saturday and a couple more on sunday making up some of the best ribs I have ever had. I cooked up 5 racks and we had jac's parents up for lunch. We also started our new church hunt up in our area and went to a new church that was very charismatic so it was an interesting experience.

We are heading to the county fair this weekend, I havent been yet, so should be fun and maybe seeing Get smart this weekend. Have a great week folks

Movies: We saw Freedom Writers: definitely one of the best movies I have seen recently ( iron has been the best). We also rented Apocalypto, I was pretty disappointed. I was expecting a lot since it was a Mel Gibson movie, but was very different from the normal Gibson greatness and was pretty bored with the movie.

Books: nothing new this week, I am still slowly reading the 3 harry potter book.

Just a couple photos:

Our beautiful backyard garden, haha. Our back patio with my young dying orange tree and some rosebush or something.

Weekend is almost over.

I have decided that I am going to write to the powers, weekends should be 3 days long and work weeks should be 4. I find myself having a ton of fun or relaxing on the weekends then all of the sudden it is sunday night and I realize work is 10 hours away. I know this is not a new idea but as I am sitting her writing this it is almost 4 on a sunday and I feel like I just finished working 10 minutes ago and it should still be friday night.
Anyways, I wanted to put up some pictures from the weekend. Went bowling friday night with some friends and my high score was 158, which is about normal but all went downhill from there. Saturday we took the dog down to Fiesta island. It was our first time down there and we had a blast. She is a little freaked out by waves but it was cool watching her play. Then Saturday night AAA had a big padre get together and we saw a rather boring game with a cool walkoff 10th inning homerun. Hope everyone else had a great weekend and heres to another exciting work week.

Book: I just started the 3rd Harry potter book ( prisoner of azkaban) and yes you can punch me if you want for reading kids books.

Movie: To go with my Harry Potter theme, I watched the second Harry potter movie. Another story where the book is a bajillion times better than the movie, but I wanted to see it none the less.

These are out of order but this is her just after coming home from the beach, she was so tired she barely made it past the front door without falling asleep.
Looks like jac is choking maddux to death, haha.
Definitely a little nervous about the water.

A quick update and random pictures

We are both a little red this weekend after playing a doubleheader in softball on saturday and then walking around for about 2 hours today at a street fair. Cubbies come to San Diego tomorrow so I am extremely happy. If anyone is reading this and wants to come along I think we are going to the Tuesday game. On that note cubs have won 7 in a row and they are 15 games over 500. The last time the cubs had the best record in baseball on the 1st of June was 1908 when they won their last world series... this will be the year. Some people have been wanting to see more dog pictures so I put a couple up for your viewing pleasure.

Currently reading: The lake House by James Patterson. I think this may be the 20th or so book of his I have read.

Current movie: We watched Great Debaters with Denzel Washington this weekend. Pretty good movie. On another note do not, I repeat do not see Indiana Jones. Honestly one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my life.

Sorry this is not too long but wanted to do a quick update.

Jim - Go cubbies

PS: I turned 25 this week. Sadly, birthdays aren't as exciting as they used to be. But I did get a new set of Taylormade golf clubs, so that makes up for it.


Here is our nephew Elijah
Just like her dad with remote in hand.
