Happy Fall Everyone!

Some lyrics from Sara Barellies

"Many the Miles"

There's too many things that I haven't done yet

Too many sunsets I haven't seen

You can't waste the day wishing it'd slow down

You would've thought by now, I'd have learned something

I made up my mind when I was a young girl

I've been given this one world

I won't worry it away

But now and again I lose sight of the good life

I get stuck in a low light

But then Love comes in

How far do I have to go to get to you

Many the miles

But send me the miles and I'll be happy to follow you, Love

I do what I can wherever I end up

To keep giving my good love

And spreading it around

Cause I've had my fair share of take care and goodbyes

I've learned how to cry

And I'm better for that

Kelly and I had the chance to see Sara Barellies this week, and she was awesome! She explained how she wrote this song when she was feeling depressed and down about life and all of the unknowns and bad things that happen. She realized she wanted to focus on the good and all of the wonderful things of life, and that is where the song came from. Here is a video of her playing if you are interested!

Home!

We were able to spend a wonderful week with our family and friends!

Flip Flop Summer!

This has been a whirlwind of a summer!!!

We finally got a grill, and Nate made us some yummy burgers sitting in the alley off of our house :)

We spent the weekend in Orange County with Crystal and Sean, and went to Universal! It was very fun!

We have pictures at

So if you have not seen this video, you have to watch it. It is this lion that two guys raised from a baby, and then re-released into Africa. This is the reunion....SO CUTE :)

I hope everyone in GH enjoyed Coast Guard!!!! We missed it a ton!

Everyday America!

We went to a Sugarland concert a few weeks ago, and I am loving their music. I currently have Everyday America stuck in my head...

I had the wonderful chance to go see my dear friends Caroline and Lydia (and Scott!) in Austin Texas. We had a blast. It was so great to see them, and spend some time in their fun city.

Hope everyone is having a great summer!

Happy Birthday Nathan!

Joel Zumaya pitching!
For Nate's birthday we went to the Tigers/Padres games. First we went on Friday night (pictures above), and they lost...it was sad. But it was very fun because we had great seats, and were in a section filled with Tigers fans. I think there were just as many tigers fans as Padres fans. Yesterday(pictures below) we went and the Tiger's won! YAY! Both were really good games. Now Nate is watching the third game on TV...we will see who wins!

SWITCHFOOT BRO AM!!

The Switchfoot concert was awesome! We had so much fun. It was a perfect beach day, and the whole event was very laid-back and fun. There were a lot of booths promoting the different organizations that were benefiting from the fund raising...such as Stand Up for kids, To write love on her arms, and more. It was a very cool thing to be a part of. We were really close for the concert, which was wonderful. First we saw A Fine Frenzy. They were amazing. This girl can sing. Then was LA symphony, a very entertaining rap group. Finally was Switchfoot. They were so awesome. They inspired me once again. The words in their songs are great.

This is out on the beach...where the concert was.
There was a surfing contest, and these are the winners.

I have a question for everyone...what was the first concert you ever went to?

Brad!

We had a wonderful weekend spending some quality time with our dear friend Brad! We spent a lot of time going around SD, and Brad taped a bunch of stuff for videos. We went to this canyon bike-riding-jumping place that Nate's friend Jake jumps at, and we took some pictures and video of him. It was pretty sweet.

Today we are off to Encinitas to go to the Bro Am Beach event that Switchfoot has every year. Its a free event with a day full of concerts and surf competitions, so that should be fun!

Baseball....

So we had a wonderful week with my brother here. After all of the fun we had at the rainy Padres game, we drove up to Anahim to see the TIGERS!!! play the Angels. It was a good time! Sure they lost, and there were no runs for the first 13 innings....but it was still cool.

We also went to the SD Zoo, because if you are in SD, you have to go to the zoo.

On our way to the Tigers game, we drove up the coast and went through Laguna Beach, Newport Beach (where my Dad accually lived when he was younger...) and Huntington Beach. It was awesome to see the area, and while in Huntington beach we saw a bunch of guys get in a huge fight. (don't worry Mom, we were safe.) It was pretty crazy.

So now we are waiting for Brad to get here...he is driving from Las Vegas to visit! YAY BRAD!

Hope everyone is well!

Max!

So this week my brother is here! We went to the Padres game tonight...it rained :( It was cold and sad. We lost. But, it was fun to be together :) Also, we got these sweet free beanies! :) Don't we look great in Camo?
