Texas


Sarah and I are going on vacation in Texas this weekend. I know what you're thinking, Texas? Yes, we are going to visit my grandparents for the weekend.

Sarah and I were unable to go to Minnesota last summer because some other things got in the way (a wedding). So, we are going to go hang out in the South of Texas for 4 days.

My grandparents live at a place with a golf course and tennis courts, so I'm going to golf everyday.

San Jose Yankees


I joined a baseball team!

We are called the San Jose Yankees. The league is a semi-professional adult baseball league and it is highly competative (It's called the National Adult Baseball Association - NABA). I'm very excited to be able to play on such a good team. They needed another pitcher and another infielder, so they gave me a chance. We have our first game this weekend and I'm slated to pitch in relief. I've been working out and getting ready for a while and I think I'm ready to get back into competative baseball. This league had a lot of ex-college players and a few ex-minor leaguers. We can only use wood bats and some of these guys throw in the 90's. Awesome!

If you want to come see some of my games, click here to look at my schedule.

Also, school has finally calmed down for a while. Finals are the next big thing to worry about, but I think I'll do fine.

*This week, 11/4, I'm teaching in our college group. I'm excited because its been a while since I've taught. We are in a series from the book of Numbers and I'm teaching Ch 13 which is an amazing text.
