And so we come to the end of August Break for 2019. Gonna try for another three-fur today, combining the last two days of August with the Stream of Consciousness Saturday. Let’s see how it goes.
August 30 – Smile
We went to the Giants game last night with a bunch of friends for Italian Heritage night. Since my maiden name is Stagnaro, I’m pretty sure I qualify. Of course I have to take the smiling selfie wherever we are:
But this time we were smiling even more because our picture made it to the big screen!

Game #3 |
When I say “Big screen” I really mean it because at 153.28 FEET wide by 70.87 FEET high it is the largest video screen in any of California’s sports arenas. So, I can say that was my/our 15 seconds of fame š
August 31 – August Was…definitely not a month where I sat on the
couch and did nothing! I started the month with a Backstreet Boys concert, went to three Giants games and the ocean, caught the full moon, made some cards, started a new baby album project and read three books. Plus, lost 2 more pounds – which is not a lot but with some less than strict Keto eating during these events is not surprising to me.

Game #1 – “Friends” tribute night. Some of the Giants players and their wives did a recreation of the opening of the television show “Friends.” It was pretty good! |

Game #2 – Baseball card giveaway |

The Beach |

The full moon |

Baby’s first year mini-album in a box. |

Interesting read about Freddie Mercury. Added some details that I didn’t know. |
 |
Latest book from the Braxton Campus series. Stay tuned for another one in October! |

Based on a true story. I cannot imagine. |
Hope you enjoyed my August Break entries. How was your August? What’s coming up in September? I’m thinking of doing a would you rather this or that series.

Thanks, Jill. When you think about how many people are at the game and how many people post their pictures to instagram and tag the Giants, it is amazing to me when we make it there.
