Go Girl


This past weekend was BUUUSSY! We had a three game baseball series. . Friday was a recognition night for the Seniors. . Joe was recognized. .YAY JOE. Since Im all about student-athletes I made a video featuring each senior's picture and some super cool songs to give them as a memento of college. It turned out pretty cool, however, wow, what a project. I had no idea how much time it would take. . get the photos, edit the photos, find cool music, edit cool music, load into imovie, edit imovie, add imovie effects, etc. While it was time consuming and a bit frustrating at times, I will admit in the end it was worth it.

At Friday's game we also had a check presentation to the St. Joseph's foundation. . they partner with us for Pacific Plays Pink and we were able to raise over $11,000 this year! Anyway, the best part of the night was. . .FREE GO GIRL! Have any of you tried it? Im almost to the point of obsession over this tasty drink. It has less than five calories, is sugar free, is supposed to suppress appetite (im skeptical about that claim), and is SUPER tasty. Even if it werent an energy drink I would be sipping this down I like it that much. Anyway, gogirl also support breast cancer research so I asked the rep to come out and be a part of the game, trying to tie in St. Joe's, with Plays Pink, with Go Girl, with breast cancer. Not sure if anyone made the connection, but who cares, I walked away with a full case of this stuff.. . the rep was nice enough to load her leftovers on me!!!

Anyway, if your in need of energy, reach for this baby. Pink flavor is the best, Peach is really good, and blue is ok.

Gogirl also came out Saturday for our Triple Play Day festivities at Baseball and Softball.. I was stoked let me tell you!

p.s. checked the website for gogirl, too bad they are not hiring! I would love to rep this product. haha.

Baby Ducks


Look really close. . .BABY DUCKS! So cute, they live in the canal by our house. Love to go and visit them :)

Lovely Hawaii




I want to go back! This photo is from Kailua, only a 20 min drive from Honolulu. Just loved it here.

Husband working on his tan. . . look at those white legs! haha. Joe ended up only 'tanning' them for about 2 mins, he said it hurt too bad to leave them out any longer! haha. LOVE YOU JOE!

Banyan Trees

How beautiful are these banyan trees from Hawaii? I was so fascinated by them on our trip. They are seriously so cool, they have one main root and trunk, then other branches of the tree 'touch down' to create even more trunks. Aren't they beautiful? I just love them, I wish we could put one in our backyard. . .er, I mean Pagra's. Could you just imagine Pagra with a banyan tree, it would fit in so well with the randomness of that backyard. I love it. Too bad they dont survive in cold weather.

I had a creativity craving today and decided to redesign the blog. . .its such a happy print, don't you think? I'm trying to figure out how to make my own background, but its not working out too well So I suppose this will haveto do for now.

So, I failed to do my Tidbit Tuesday post last Tuesday. . .it happened to be Cinco De Mayo and I must admit I got sidetracked with my Carne Asada, Gaucamole, and Corona.


Joe and I have befriended a trio of ducks. We first met them by the Venetian pool this winter.-our laundry room is right next to the pool, so whenever we did laundry Joe would take some bread down to feed them. I thought they would eventually move on to the little canal by our apartment, but they have not. Apparently they have really enjoyed our friendship. In fact they even come knocking on our door every once in a while! Numerous times Joe and I have heard them quacking away outside our apartment window asking for food. . .its so funny. We are so lame, we actually enjoy the company so we are quick to feed them. We like training them to come back. :) haha. Im beginning to wonder what the new tenants of our apartment will think when they discover they have a trio of ducks under their balcony every night asking for food?

I got an interview!! Its for a position at College of the Redwoods in Eureka, Ca. Please be praying, I get way too nervous before interviews.

Joe is completely done with school YAY JOE and I am pretty much done, just need to finish this darn thesis project!

I lost my camera :(

Well I guess that is pretty much it for now.
