Happy Birthday Husband!

Happy birthday to my sweet, amazing, loving husband- Greg!  He is such a blessing to my life and I am so glad he was born!

To celebrate, Greg requested we go to a Padres game.  So Tuesday night we headed over to Petco Park for some all American baseball fun!

Becky and Ryan came too!

Happy Birthday Greg! I love you!

Summer...

Summer is upon us...the Carlsbad flower fields are blooming, the Point Loma parrots are squawking, and the Padres are baseball-ing...and I am SO excited!  I can't wait for trips to the beach, attempts at surfing, and late night bon fires.  It does feel kind of weird not to have a VBS or kid's camp event in the month of July to plan for...how am I going to get that fabulous sock and t-shirt tan from those hours spent playing rec games outside? Anybody need a professional rec leader volunteer??

Anyways, who wants to come visit?!?  We have a very comfy couch!

Sista, sista!

One of my favorite things about living in San Diego is living .5 mile away from my sister, Becky. I love that I get to see her so often and have her over just to hang out.  This week she came over for some chicken enchiladas...so good- right Beck?!

Love you Beck!

$$$

I am a huge Mint.com fan!  As their website says, "The best FREE way to manage your money."

It has been a great tool for Greg and I to use to see how we are spending and saving.  There has been some small issues when our bank accounts don't link up properly, but the problem is usually solved within a couple days.  And again, its FREE!

Home Sweet Home!

Welcome to our "crib!"

Greg and I would like to give you a tour of our little home.  We have been living here for about 5 months and loving it!

This is the living room/library/office.  

I love the cabinets in the kitchen!  The brown flooring, not so much.

The country quilt. Thanks Morines Grandparents!

The mini closet.

I love that Anthropologie towel...Thanks Morines and Marchi family for the nice giftcard!

Greg's garage.  It's amazingly organized!

In other news, Greg and I went to the beach today- it was beautiful!

Check out that pier in the background...its the longest concrete pier on the West Coast!  Ocean Beach pride.

June 6, 2010= Our wedding day!

And what a great day that was!

I was looking through some of 1,600 pictures I have of our wedding day and thought I would share some of my favorites.  

Here's a link to a little interview I did with the Polka Dot Bride blog on some of the details of the day.

Matthew 25: 34-40

The Sheep and the Goats


 ... “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. ³⁵ For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, ³⁶ I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’


   ³⁷ “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? ³⁸ When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? ³⁹ When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’


   ⁴⁰ “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’...
