Finally the weekend

Well, I hope everyone got through this work week as painlessly as possible. Thankfully it's not 100 degrees again today. It's suppose to be a beautiful weekend around these parts, hope it is for you as well.

Did anyone get caught in that storm last night? This girl did! I actually sat in the pouring down rain keeping the books for my Dad's softball games. The umpire was bound and determined to get through the games as long as their was no lightning. If he didn't the games going, he wasn't getting paid. At least I wasn't alone sitting in the rain... that's right, my Grandmother is a trooper. She sat right there with me the entire time. She may seem sweet and innocent, but she was sure trash talking the other team! Oh did I mention that our team only had 9 players and the other team only had 6 players. Congrats to my dad's teams for kicking the other team when they were down...and 12 running them both games! But hey I got free Chik-fil-a out the deal! :)

I've got quite the exciting weekend planned! Tonight is our second to last regular season kickball game. Hoping to come out with the win of course. SchweatyBallz versus Stinky Pinkies... What wonderful names right.? Then tomorrow we pack ourselves and the dogs up... and head to NOVA to see my sister and brother in law. I foresee some thrift storing going on! Sunday we are all going to the Red Sox vs Orioles game for Father's Day. My Dad and I are big Orioles fans, while my Sister and Brother-in-law are Red Sox fans. Then someone has to keep us grounded and be the referee...so that's where Mom comes in! At least two people will go home happy! 

Tune in tomorrow night at 8pm to NBC Sports Network for Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals between Chicago and Boston! 
If the AHL is more your speed, you can go to AHLLive.com tonight at 7pm and enter in the code Calder2013 and watch Game 4 between the Grand Rapids Griffins and Syracuse Crunch for free. The Griffins could take home the Calder Cup with a sweep tonight, so that may be worth tuning in to! 

Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend.
...Until Next Time...

Sweet Summer Time

Hello there! I'm back again. And since I have no life, maybe I'll be able to keep up with this thing again... we shall see. 

Well I think that the weather decided that we didn't need a spring season this year. I mean we went from 50's to 80's... and today it's suppose to be 93. Oh and not to mention tomorrow is suppose to be like 100! What in the world is going on!?! Luckily I work in an office with some nice AC blasting. :) 


Lots to look forward to this summer! 

In exactly a month Momma and me will be going to see Train and Gavin DeGraw.
And can I say how awesome my Mother is... pretty freaking awesome! 

Thanks to her I'll be getting to meet Gavin DeGraw again. 
I can definitely go without meeting Train again, they aren't the nicest guys.

But at least they put out some really good music!

Then in two months I'll be headed to Nags Head for a week with the family!
For once, all 5 of us will be down there together!
We didn't get to go last year since we went to Alaska so it will be nice to get back to our yearly tradition.

My little slice of heaven. 
I'm finally not coaching kickball this summer, so I will have plenty of pure relaxation time. I love kickball and all but I stress out over it too much. Luckily my cousin decided he'd take it over for me. Poor boy, I don't think he knows what he's getting himself into to. I use to love coaching but after 3 years, you kind of get burnt out. So now I just get to go out there and have fun! Maybe it'll spark my love for kickball up again!

Well tonight starts a very intense next couple of weeks. 
It's Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals between the Boston Bruins and the Chicago Blackhawks.
As well as it is Game 3 of the Calder Cup Finals between the Grand Rapids Griffins and
the Syracuse Crunch.
I'm pulling for Chicago and Grand Rapids.
I'll be glued to my tv and my laptop tonight watching both games! 
Saddening that hockey season is coming to a close though.

Well time to actually try and get some work done!
