Let's Try to Actually Play Some Defense...........Christian

So Tom Boy Christian and Girlie Christian got in a fight last night and Girlie Christian WON...which isn't good in the middle of a softball game. Last night's game was a bit of a bummer........BUT, that's not what I want to focus on.

Softball has opened up many doors and many friendships over the years and I'd like to introduce you to some of the awesome people I get to hang out with on a regular basis:


Meet Derek and Stacy, Derek currently leads the males in batting averages and Stacy leads the females....yes, it was a bit hard for me to give up my reign, but I'll humbly sit in 2nd place




Now meet Kelly- she and Chris are the team's coaches. I've been playing with them for about four years.....Kelly's a pretty awesome chick and I love her to death!




The following lady is Lauren. We found Lauren on Craig's list (sorry girl, I know you don't want that to be your claim to fame) and thought she'd just come and be a female body on the team, but she's turned about to be an AWESOME second baseman and a great team player



Now meet Lauren's son Cameron.....I think the picture says enough......I just want to eat him up!!!!





And this is Derek's daughter Kenzie...she's a sweety too




I love this team!!!!


THE END

Layers

"What you see is what you get?" Not really, I think everyone has multiple layers but they only reveal those layers to a few special people in their lives. Well, since I know my blogs will all be focused around how I'm feeling when I post, I thought I'd introduce you to all of my layers now.

Meet "Corporate Christian": Corporate Christian is a total workaholic. She walks with a certain air about her, typically dressed in some of the latest trends (courtesy of Target and Forever21-what?!?! I don't make a lot of money), and is confident in her abilities. Corporate Christian will walk up to the CEO of a company and tell him his speech wasn't all that great or that his blog sucked, but will then politely provide appropriate suggestions.

Independent Christian: Independent Christian changes her own break pads, deals with car issues, likes to make the decisions. It's not that I don't have a willing and capable husband, because I do, but there is that part of me that feels the need to prove I can do things on my own.

Tom Boy Christian: Tom Boy Christian likes to hit the gym on a daily basis, likes to fish, ride 4-wheelers and horses, doesn't mind being barefoot, LOVES softball, WANTS to be the star on the team (though I know I'm far from it) and doesn't mind a scraped bloody knee.

OK- while the above mentioned are multiple layers, they're still only one side of me. There is another side of me that is quite the opposite. Here are my remaining layers:

Sensitive Christian: Sensitive Christian cries at Church or more accurately fights back tears at church on a regular basis. Sensitive Christian feels the need to mother her friends, her husband, her brother, her dogs and even her friend's children. Sensitive Christian loves to both give and receive love. Sensitive Christian gets sentimental over a lot of things, particularly when it comes to mine and my husbands walk together. SensitiveChristian can literally feel her heart breaking and ripping apart when someone she loves is hurting. Sensitive Christian cries- sometimes for no reason!

Girlie Christian: Girlie Christian fights with Tom Boy Christian on a regular basis because Girlie Christian really hates to be dirty and sweaty. Girlie Christian still believes in chilvary, loves it when her husband opens doors for her, guides her through doorways by pushing on the small of her back, holds her hand. Girlie Girlie Christian gives way to her independent tendencies and takes enjoyment out of having her husband take care of her. Girlie Christian loves to dress up for her husband because he can be extremely complimentary. Girlie Christian's favorite color is PINK...I love pink :)

WEIRD CHRISTIAN: I think weird Christian is my favorite. Weird Christian will break out in song and/or dance in the middle of a store (much to my husband's embarrassment). Weird Christian says random things, does random things and is just...well, weird. You never know when this persona will come out but it's my personal opinion that this part of me is the fun part. Take the time to get to know me and you'll come to simply expect it.

So I apologize for being long winded in this post, I promise I won't typically bore you to death with each post, but I think by understanding the many layers of me, you might better understand future posts and the emotion behind them.
