Another place to rest a heavy heart

A month to remember

For this post I am just going to pump out the big things over this month.
First off we moved out of our condo which we rented out for the price we wanted to a lovely young couple. We are living with Jillian's parents while the current tenants are still in the new house. Dammit. Awh well they are out on the 15th.



Jillian spent a week in Vegas for work. Her and her sister Natalie put on a huge conference for her work. Both of her bosses were so stoked and spoiled both her and Natalie as a thank you.

We had so many birthdays over the month of June. Including mine oh man I was spoilt with movies, gift cards, clothing and a whopping gift of tickets to see my favourite band the Black Keys.



Jillian and I had our 4th wedding on July 1st. We spent it apart as I had to work. But we did get to spend the next day together and went for celebratory breakfast. Jillian surprised me with an iPhone4 which I get in a few days. I gave her a poem. I was definitely out shined in the gift department.

After our anniversary breakfast we headed down to Portland four the 4 th of July week end. Our friend Nick parents has a beach house in Lincoln city which is right on the coast. Not on a lake. We had a great weekend with nick and his family. A highlight for me was meeting a pro skater at the local park there. The park was one of the raddest bowl parks I have ever seen. I couldn't skate it for crap. But was still stoked to be there. Food, fishing, games and fireworks made the weekend great.


The Tuesday straight after the weekend away my bosses took me to a Seattle mariners baseball game. We had great seats and fantastic time.



Oh I also played my first game of softball. The game is a social
game but is taken somewhat seriously. So I was pretty nervous when it was my turn to bat but that went well. I was more nervous when I was put in to pitch on my first. That went well with me striking out my first 3 batters. But I had a glitch when I ran into to antelope team mate trying to catch a ball. Idiot I am. I am now the starting pitcher. Let's just in my softball game there was many highs and lows, humorous lows. I made a softball blunder and slide into first. I have the grazes on my elbow and knee to prove it.

I think this enough for now.
