Nationals Ball Game
Last week Justin & Becky came up for one night. Justin got us tickets and we went to a Nationals baseball game. It was a little wet but by the time we got there things had cleared up and we had a great time. And we WON!

From Easter until now...yes I am that much of a slacker...
I was fortunate enough to have 3 days off of work before Easter weekend, and Brett had spring break the entire week before. We spent my first day off (Wed) cleaning...SPRING cleaning! I think I might be classified as a "winter horder"...I collect so many pointless things in the winter, and start billions of random craft projects all of which still need to be completed.
Brett was a trooper he helped with the cleaning, it was no easy task...Living in a basement, things tend to get a little more dusty. We dusted, vacuumed, swept, mopped, we did it all, oh yea and lets not forget the 5 loads of laundry we folded...did I ever mention I hate folding laundry...
Thursday we woke up, loaded the car and headed for Burlington, NC. 5.5 hours later we arrived to cracker barrel and were able to have dinner with my grandparents! Then we drove another hour and got close to my friend Sarah's house, so I called her and told her she had company coming:) So we made a detour and stopped for a short visit! I even got a Christmas present!
Yes it does say "Let it snow, Let it snow" , but I could put it away, I had to use it!
9.5 hours later we made it to my parents. It was a relaxing weekend, nothing was planned, so we able to chill most of the time. It was beautiful, and around 85 the whole weekend!
Brett is coaching girls soccer for the school where he works. They are a pretty young team, however with his patience they are learning the sport and were able to win there first game a few weeks ago! Brett has also been in the process of applying for Grad schools, with hopes to some day get his doctorate in History and teach at a college level. And last week he found out he was accepted to George Mason University! He is so excited and this exciting news is a real confirmation for us of God's purpose and plan for our lives. Please keep him (and myself) in your prayers as he begins registering for classes, and soon after attending them:).
