Lots to Update

Ok well I have some down time so I thought I would update. I'll start at about 2 weeks ago. We had our co-ed softball tournament (finally) and we won our first two games to get the championship game. We ended up losing but played good. So we got 2nd place. Last week was the one and only Delaware County Fair :-) We went a couple times during the week to bet on some horse races and eat some fair food. Thursday last week was the Little Brown Jug. It's a really big horse race at the fair. Most people take off work and go up and pretty much tailgate all day or go into the grandstands and bet on the races. Our friends pitch in every year for a "tailgate" spot for the week. It is a long day of drinking and betting. So it was fun as usual. This year Olivia was big enough to go on the rides so below is a picture of her and Josh on the merry go round, and a picture of me at the Jug feeling pretty good. (if you can't tell from the picture)

My parents came into town this past weekend for the Ohio State/Penn State game. We got really early and went down to Ohio State to set up our tailgate spot. We tailgated all day until game time (see pics below). Josh and I had tickets to the game. It was a lot of fun even though it rained a bit. This weekend we are having people over to our house for the Ohio State game on Saturday. Probably play some corn hole in the afternoon if the weather is nice. That's about it from here. Hope all is well with everyone!!!!

Weekend in PA


Beer Tent-Polish Festival
Originally uploaded by jpatterson.
Well we had a nice Labor Day weekend. Josh and I headed up to Canton on Friday and met up with Matt and Megan and some other BG guys at Johnsen's for a cookout. Then Saturday Megan and I headed back to DuBois for her Bridal Shower. It was really nice and she got some great stuff. Saturday night we just hung out with the Fam. Josh and Matt were in Cleveland all day Saturday for the BG football game and Matt's bachelor party. Sunday they came to DuBois and we all went to the annual Polish Festival. We walked around and of course ate some great polish food. Had a beer in the beer tent then went back to my parents to play some cards in the evening. Monday we headed back to Ohio and I helped Josh get his room finalized. He started school yesterday and he said it went really well. Nothing much planned for this weekend. Going to be watching the Big Penn State/Notre Dame game, and the Ohio State/Texas game. I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Below are some pictures from PA.
