A quick update...

Hello everybody!! Just wanted to give a little update about what we are up to over here on the west coast.
For those of you who don't know, Patrick is continuing his career in baseball this year. He was drafted by the Oakland A's in 2006 and has played in Vancouver,BC, Kane County, IL, and Stockton, CA. He ended the season in Stockton last year. He is currently at spring training in Scottsdale, AZ until the end of the month. This month has proved to be a great one for him. He has had a few appearances pitching and has done very well. He's actually on the preliminary roster to go Midland, TX! We are very pleased with this, seeing as it is the next step up for his career. We will continue to keep you updated in the next week of what is happening and hopefully we will know for sure where he will be for the start of the 2008 season.
Holly is also traveling this year, but as a traveling nurse. She is currently in Manteca, CA, which is right outside of Stockton. We were kind of thinking Patrick would start the season in Stockton, so this made sense...however, now, since Patrick has been doing so well, we don't really know?? If you keep up with this blog, you will quickly understand how unpredictable minor league baseball really is! Holly is really learning how to "go with the flow". Anyway, Holly is continuing to work as a labor and delivery nurse and is still loving it as much as she did the very first day she started!
So, even with all of the craziness of traveling, we are in the midst of planning a wedding. We are getting married December 13,2008 and could not be more excited! It is going to be so wonderful being husband and wife! We will also be keeping you updated about all of the plans surrounding the wedding. We have a lot of things planned already and know that it is going to be a very fun time.
So, stay tuned! Holly will be doing most of the updates seeing as Patrick's schedule is a wee bit crazy! We are very excited about the next year to come.
