Twins, Target Field, & Twenty Ten

2010 marked the first time in 27 years since the Twins played outdoor baseball at home. The new stadium, Target Field, is amazing with spectacular views of the City. We've been incredibly fortunate to make it to 2 games so far this season. We saw the Twins beat the Brewers in extra innings in May and we also saw the Twins beat the Tigers in June.

Easy to get to...hard to leave

That is the Alexandria saying. It's very true. Easy to get to (despite the 6.5 hour drive) but it's extremely hard to leave. So far this summer we've spent 3 weekends in Alexandria. The first trip was on Father's Day weekend with Katie & Logan. Then we went up for an additional 10 days to spend time with the entire family for the 4th of July. It was the most amazing and relaxing vacation. Here is a small sampling of the pictures taken so far.

Sarah & Cara Run Madison...

On Sunday, May 30th, Sarah Mahoney and I ran the Madison Half Marathon. I had trained all Spring and felt great going into the race. It was my 3rd half marathon and I knew I wasn't going to break my personal record. With the heat that day I decided not to push myself to the extreme. I finished about 20 minutes off my best time. It was a very hard race due to the heat but I'm glad I finished. After the race Sarah jumped on a plane and headed to Hawaii. We miss her a lot!

After the race we headed to Foxboro for the Man-O-Man-She family golf outing. It was nice to see all the Mandli's. Here are a few pictures.

Shout out to my Niffer

This past Saturday, June 5th, I had the honor to stand up in one of my best friends weddings. Jen and Jordan have been together since Jen and I lived together at Randall Ave. Jen has always been an incredible friend and we always manage to have an amazing time together. Their wedding was full of fun and laughter. I snapped a million pictures, but here are a few of my favorites...

Easy as 1, 2, 3...

It has been a long time since my first and only post. I'm not exactly sure how to use this thing, but I will enjoy learning. I'm sure that the majority of my posts will include Kirby, family, friends, fun adventures, and the Badgers. Be patient with me as I figure things out, but I'm excited to start sharing...
