Stumble Upon

While on stumble upon, I came across a map of the United States that was divided into regions by the football team that is most popular in that region. For example, in the northeast there is a region with the Patriot logo, a region with the Jets logo, an area with the Giants logo, and an area with the Bills logo.

I also came across a video for a rain delay for a college baseball game. This video consists of a roller coaster ride, a moshpit, a "gunfight" using bats, and a dance party. This is a very entertaining video and was pretty funny to watch.

a blog that hits close to home

"I've never spent this much time talking to my cousin." When I read this it made me think about our family relationships. How much do we take our family for granted? This quote is from a post on my aunt's blog talking about right after my cousin suffered from a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from the chest down. I read this quote and thought about us growing up. He is about 4 years older than me with his sister in between us. I think about times when we would play hide and seek in my grandma's house and the time that he helped me hide in the dryer. I think about how most of these memories occur during the holidays and the fact that anytime we would go to his hockey games or hear about his tennis match or a ski race, it was rarely followed up with a great amount of time spent together after. This blog is about not taking your family for granted and cherishing all of the time that you spend together.
