fightin' phils


how bout them phillies?! we have been glued to our tv watching the world series. and matty actually WENT to the game on saturday! he was so excited. that's all he could think about all day. he took a potential client of his and they had such a memorable time. he came back at 3:30am with some good stories...taylor swift, phillies mafia, rain downpour, mike missanelli, and bad rays fans. i was so glad he got to go! come on phils...let's end it tonight so we can all get some sleep!

around our town


last night we decided to head over to landmark in the borough to watch game 7 of the alcs. we not only ran into my parents there, but phillies pitcher cole hamels. the waitress came over and gave us the tip that he was there. so matt got up to "go to the bathroom" so he could catch a glimpse. then we left and he was still there chomping away at his meal...needs his strength for the world series. there was a range rover outside and i said to matt,'that's probably his car.' so, matt says, 'let's put a piece of paper on it that says 'go phillies!' and we did. hope it was his car! go phils!

other happenings this weekend-
-hanging out with joe & heidi and finding out heidi is an amazing euchre player. joe is a cheater.
-matt went to the college age retreat with jim and his fellow investors. the brakes went out on the church van and one pastor and the future leaders of covenant fellowship church almost died.
-mom and i had lots of fun together saturday scouting out the goodwill and spray painting my filing cabinets. they turned out very well. pictures to come, but we need the top part of it first.
-going to barnes and nobles to get a new comment book and finding that they now have colored moleskins!! my green one makes me so happy.
-jared's first message at church as senior pastor!
-watching scary movies and having very weird dreams.

and if you want to see them, here is a public link for our obx pictures on facebook. it's just easier.

chair did


a few months ago i bought this chair at the goodwill. all it needed was to be recovered and a clean up paint job. my mother in law helped me redo it the other day and i quite like the outcome. it's a cute $5 addition to our living room.
next project-making a desk with some old filing cabinets. i will let you know how it goes.

go phils!

p.s. i took this photo with my new lens that matty got me for my kinda birthday...love! he's so good to me.
