Weekend Festivities

Jonathan and I spent the weekend in Springfield. First of all, it wasn't a fun drive in. We got caught in the biggest storm ever. I was driving and have had bad experiences with getting caught in hail/rain while driving in the past so let's just say I was feeling deja vu. There were sheets of rain hitting the windshield and I felt like the lightening was practically striking my car! Thankfully, we made it home safely!

The rest of the weekend was really fun! We went to a Cincinnati Red's game and we watched the Red's beat the Giants!! My dad has really wanted to see the Red's Hall of Fame and we were there early enough so we did and it was really cool!

Johnny Bench jersey from his last home game! My dad went.


Oh just chillen with Sparky!

Johnny Bench's Vowels of Success















My favorite quote from Johnny Bench's Vowels of Success about inner conceit was, "Don't let your attitude write checks that your ability can't cash." BOOM! If that doesn't say it I don't know what does. :) I thought that Red's Hall of Fame was really fun and interesting..plus my dad really enjoyed it too.

On top of the Hall of Fame, we ate some Skyline and watched some good baseball. It was super fun and hot!!


After the game, we ate at an Irish Pub across the river in Newport, KY. It is an adorable little place right on the Ohio River! We didn't get home until about 2 am but it was worth it...love weekends at home every now and then!

Sorry this is late. We are heading to Pittsburgh this weekend for Jonathan's cousin's wedding. Their reception is at Heinz Field! I guess us Brown's fans are going to have to suck it up! Have a good weekend. :)
