Battle of the Beltway is HERE

It's today! IT'S TODAY!!! The Battle of the Beltway is today!!!

Hosted by: Ryan Kerrigan & Torrey Smith

 

 



The day I've been waiting for is finally here. I get to cheer on my Washington Redskins at the Battle of the Beltway charity basketball game against the Baltimore Ravens. I am beyond excited!!! If ya couldn't tell. :-P

 

I'll be off work at 1pm, possibly signing the lease to rent my house for another year at 2pm, and then I'm off to the game at 3pm with my bestie! Should be for one entertaining day.

 

Oh and I'm doing ALL this on 40minutes of sleep! Yes, I'm aware I'm crazy. This is nothing new. Just pray I don't have any crash moments. At least not till after the game anyway.

 

GO REDSKINS GO!!!

HAIL!

Star Crossed: Episode 5 Review

And we are back, yet again, with another review on Star Crossed!
Episode 5 was...interesting! We have a few developments. Some in the romance department and also more info on the Atrian culture. There was both some mystery and drama...of course.
Basically teenagers will be teenagers no matter where they are from. :-P

So without further adieu, enjoy the review! (I apologize for the corny rhyming. lol)

I'd love to hear your thoughts. :-)

Star Crossed: Episode 4 Review

 

Take 4! We are almost all caught up on Star Crossed. Then we will posting reviews weekly in "real time". This episode is probably my favorite so far. It was light, humorous, unifying, with of course some drama thrown about.

We are trying to give more of our opinion regarding the episodes as opposed to detailed timelines of what happens. Basically we are assuming you all will have watched the episode beforehand.

Ok so without further or adieu here is the review. We have a brief special appearance in the beginning. Hope you like it!

Comments and Thoughts are welcome below.

 

Laterz!

Star Crossed: Episode 3 Review

Here we go. Jess and I are back again for another review of Star Crossed.

Episode 3 was a bit different. It seemed a little darker. Of course I still loved it. Roman is driving me crazy though. He is all over the place. Poor Emery! But of course Grayson is there to keep her together. I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out. Enjoy the review.

Redskins back in action!

I am over the moon right now! In 9 days I will be in full fan mode watching the Washington Redskins play some b-ball.

Yes, you did read that correctly. I will be cheering on my Skins on March 29th, 2014 in the Comcast Center at UMD. They will be taking on the Ravens. Yup, another football team playing basketball. Weird I know. It's going to be awesome though.



They are calling it The Battle of the Beltway.



Ryan Kerrigan, Redskins linebacker (91), and Torrey Smith, Ravens wide receiver (82),  are "hosting" this battle between the teams.

This event will support two great causes.

• Ryan Kerrigan's Blits for the Better Foundation - The mission of Ryan Kerrigan’s Blitz for the Better Foundation is to provide opportunities, support and resources to children and families in need in the Greater Washington D.C. area.

• Torrey Smith's Torrey Smith Foundation - The mission of the Torrey Smith Foundation is to better the lives of Baltimore area youth by providing educational support, opportunities and resources.

This is a great way to have some fun and make difference too!

I've already got my tickets. Go get yours! Battle of the Beltway Tickets


LET'S GO REDSKINS!!!!!!!

Star Crossed: Episode 2 Review

Hey all! I hope you like the last review.

Episode 2 had a lot more detail to it. Jess and I tried to sum it up as best we could and give you a bit of our personal opinions too. :-)

Enjoy!

Snow snow and oh...more snow!

This has been one of the most ridiculous winters I've ever had. I've lost count at how many snowfalls we've had in the DC, MD area. Usually if we get a good snow it's maybe one time and then done. Sometimes there are dustings or rain freezes over night.
This has to be the coldest and quite possibly the warmest winter I can remember.
I am baffled at how it's gotten up to like 60° and sunny then that very next day it hits freezing temps! This has happened almost all winter.

I must say, I do love a good beautiful snowfall but this back and forth weather is killing my love for the fluffy white goodness!

However, it is pretty cool from this view:

Congressional Country Club
View from Fitness Center
 

I'm trying really hard not to hate it because it's so pretty. But it's a lot of snow and that can cause problems!

Roughly 8 inches

I have plans and this much snow could put a huge damper on things. I do not want to be stuck at home doing nothing after I get off work. That seems so lame! :-( Here's praying they clear the roads by 2pm when I get off.

On another note I got to stay at the hotel at Congressional last night. That way I could be here to open the Fitness Center without having to battle the snow/roads. It was a rather nice evening.

Oh and here's the Fitness Center...

there are so many people here I just don't know what to do with myself! (Sarcasm)

Now I will end my rant.

Later Skaters!

Jess and I are trying something new and doing weekly reviews on it together. It's my first time doing video blogs so bare with me. I definitely need some time to warm up to the "spotlight". :-P

Check it out below and let me know what ya think!

 

Share your thoughts & comments on the show and/or our review.

I'd love to know what y'all are thinking!
