2nd BASE?...

It was a week before we left for our trip to Jamaica. I decided that since we were renewing our vows I would propose to Tony this time! On a Thursday night he was at baseball practice and I decided to get this cute baseball outfit on and pitch a couple balls to him. I had planned this out with Trent our friend that is the coach. He kept in contact and told me when he was having Tony rotate into catching position. Jana helped me do my hair and clothes. Which I totally love! Their baseball team is called the St. Louis Cardinals, and of course I had to match! So I found online this super cute T-shirt that was red like theirs and had the teams logo on it! PERFECTION! 
When we got to the field...I walked up from behind Tony (which made a perfect surprise entrance!). I looked at him a couple times as I was passing him but he didn't see me. Then as I got a little in front of him I hear "what the hell is this?" (after he told me that he didn't know it was me at that point) I told the pitcher I wanted to play...and I turned around and Tony was just staring at me with this lost look on his face.
Thats me! Waiting to do this...
This is me entering...
This is where I got when he finally noticed me...
I told him that I have something to say but he would have to read it. So I threw the first ball...except it was the wrong ball! I had threw him the second ball first. (I asked for him to throw it back to me) I then threw him the two balls in correct order. The first one said "We are one year in and you are my best first baseman" the second one said "Lets go to second base" (as in 2nd year of marriage) I then started walking towards him with the third ball and told him to stand up so I could get on my knee with it. The third ball said "marry me again?" 
Tony with the first ball...
Tony with the second ball...
Here is me telling him to stand up...
Before or after I gave him the third ball...
I had to have a picture of it! Take 2...
He did say YES!
I was surprisingly very nervous and shaking! I even started to tear up! I knew he would say yes, he was already my husband...no clue where the emotions came from! It was so fun and different. I liked surprising him!
Put me in coach...
I had also had our wedding cake defrosted during the day. I thought what a better time then to have a piece of it?!  I was surprised that it was so moist and yummy after being frozen for a year!!
Our Wedding Cake...
Tony cutting it...
Yellow cake with Rasberry filling...
Aww...I remeber the first time...
This was such a good way to get ready for our anniversary trip to Jamaica!!

WELCOME!!

Hello! This would be my second attempt at keeping a blog! I tend to forget to update it. I love the idea of having a blog to help keep family and friends updated on the events in our lives. We do lead very busy lives these days!

Anthony has been keeping us both busy with Baseball and Softball. I am excited to say that I will be joining a softball team in August. I am a bit nervous, cause I don't know the rules (just the basics) and I have never played on a team before. All in all I think that it will be a great experience!

Its seems that we are both working hard to play hard! The bakery business is rockin it right now! The Stevens guys are staying very busy with tons of new business! I am still with the same company. In August it will be my three year anniversary with the company!

Anthony and I are going to be celebrating our one year anniversary on August sixth! We are heading to Jamaica for eight days! I have to say that we are super excited!! I just hope that it is not going to rain the hole time!! Either way a vacation with the two of us is definitely wanted!

Well check back and see what is new with us! I promise to do my best to stay on top of updating the blog with tons of stories and pictures!!
