I'm Back!

I know, it has been a month since I have posted something here. With the start of a new school year, things have just been so hectic. A lot has been happening the past month, so I will try to update a little now.

1. The start of the college football season is off and running. My Irish are 2-1, could very easily be 3-0 or 1-2 right now. The loss of Michael Flyod is going to hurt, but our bench is pretty stacked. The Irish travel to Purdue this week, should be win #3.

2. The Colts are off to a 2-0 start. A great game on Monday night. The Colts only had the ball for 15 minutes and scored 27 points, are you kidding me? Our defense is still an issue, won't go far without them picking up the pace.

3. It is almost the end of September and I am doing awesome with my New Year's Resolutions. I still have not had a pop or any fries this year (not that it hasn't been tempting!)

4. The Tin Caps are the Champions of the Midwest League! My wife and I went to several games, including the playoffs. I am really looking forward to next year, I think we are going to get season tickets!

5. School is off to a great start, I really like my class and they are a ton of fun!

Summer Top 5

It is hard to believe it is August, and this really hasn't felt much like summer at all. With less than two weeks before school starts, here is my Top 5 list so far of this summer:

1. South Haven, Michigan: My wife and I love to go here every year. We love the beach, great food, shops, and just the time to relax and get away.

2. Ft. Wayne Tin Caps games- We have been to several this year and looking forward to going to more, including the Playoffs. This is a great Minor League ballpark, lots of fun, and cheap tickets!

3. Pool Days- We just really like to hangout at the pool....haven't been there as much as would have liked, but it hasn't been as hot as last year.

4. Regular Workouts- It is nice to go in the morning and get it out of the way, then you have the rest of the day to do whatever.

5. Sleeping In- It is always nice to not have to set an alarm!

Rest, Relax, No Agenda

My wife and I love to head to South Haven. In just a short year, we have had so many awesome memories here at South Haven! Not only was it the place we got engaged a year ago, it is such a beautiful place to get away to our favorite place: the beach! This week has been another amazing week. We have enjoyed just relaxing on the beach, playing corn hole, jarts on the beach, throwing the football around, and enjoying the amazing sunsets!

Tonight we are heading to downtown to watch Ice Age. South Haven has a really neat old movie theater that we enjoy going to. Tonight is free popcorn night.....can't wait!

South Haven Update

We arrived on Saturday around 1:00 and headed straight to our favorite restaurant, Clementine's for lunch! It was good as usual. I had the amazing Gulslinger, which is the best steak I have ever tasted. We then headed to a few shops until settling in to our place. The weather here is just perfect.

Today we spent the whole day at the beach. The beach is our favorite place to be. Today was awesome. It was about 79 and sunny, perfect beach day. We are now heading to Sherman's Ice Cream. This is another place I love to go to......the BEST ice cream!

Well, until tomorrow, hope everyone is having a great summer!

4th Of July

Wow, where has June gone? I can't believe it is July already. The 4th of July was pretty bad. The weather was horrible? 60's and rain in July? Anyway, we had a good time with family on Lake Wawasee on Saturday even though it wasn't a good day to be on the lake. It stopped raining by the time we watched fireworks. Wawasee always has good fireworks, and this year was no different!

Only 5 days until vacation......I sooooo can't wait!

My Amazing Wife

School is out, so that means I get to spend more time with my beautiful wife!!!!!! I'm ready for the beach!
