31 Days of Being Where I Am: Day 5-16 (catch-up)

Since I missed a few days... let's do a quick recap of what happened.

The hubs turned the big 3-0. Had dinner w/ the family and 3 cakes

(this picture is super fob)

...and a football get together the following day (which i have no pictures of except the aftermath)



Went to my first postseason game. Game 4 of ALDS. The green n gold were amazing. It was an amazing season.

Did a quick drop by to see the matsumoto's...and a sleeping lukey through his video monitor


Had some yummy blue bottle


Leave you all with one last picture of this cutie chubster

31 Days of Being Where I Am: Day 2

Today was about family...in fact this week has been about family. My dad's siblings are all in town to celebrate my grandma's 96th birthday and what a fun time we have all been having.




Short but sweet post today. More to come...

31 Days of Being Where I Am: Day 1 (on day 2)

I came across this 31 day campaign on TheNester and thought it may be a good way to kickstart me back into blogging.

I picked "being where I am" as my topic for the 31 days, to better recognize and appreciate that God has placed me here in the now for His purpose.

For Day 1, it was learning to take advantage of opportunities that don't arise everyday -- Going to an A's game at the suggestion of the hubs. It was a fun, spontaneous date night at the ballpark.



The best part, the A's CLINCHED a playoff spot :D


(sorry for the blurry photo, but that is the mobfest after Balfour's 3 strikeout 9th inning)

We also ran into some fellow A's fan friends -- here's a post-victory photo


It was a much enjoyed night out at the park with some seriously great atmosphere.

Watching the A's this season and their "one game at a time" mantra/mentality is really reminding me to take each day at a time, each season at a time. Sometimes I want to rush out of the now and into the next, but I need to learn to slow down and be where I am. Just be.

That's Day 1, posted on Day 2...Day 2 post to come :)
