Timehopping.

Six years ago was the infamous Power Stack fire game at GABP…

Milan was snug as a bug in a rug…

And do you remember Fork Heart Knife that used to be up on Main Street in OtR?

Their frittata and those spiced potatoes were just amazing…

Thanks for the memories, Timehop. πŸ˜€πŸ¦•βšΎοΈβ€οΈ

Soccer Saturday with some yardwork.

Good morning from Northside…

We ran over to Lowe’s to get some stuff for our backyard…

We listened to the FA Cup final while we almost finished staining our fence…

But we ran out of stain. Again. And we put some little pea gravel down on the other side of the path in our side yard…

We walked to Tickle Pickle to pick up an early dinner…

I’m not certain but I think Tickle Pickle might have got a big new sign…

But they have fries now!

BAM!

And the fries were delicious…

Good evening from Northside…

Tomorrow, we’ll go get some more stain for our fence and some flowers for our side yard…

Later, we watched the ladies of Racing Louisville play to nil-nil draw…

And we watched Minnesota United snatch a 1-0 win in the 95th minute

It was a really good Saturday. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸ–ŒοΈπŸ”πŸŸβš½οΈβ€οΈ

The FA Cup Final.

I’ve been a fan of Arsenal football club for as long as I can remember. My love for the club dates back to the early nineties. Way back in the day, I would watch (and record) the hour-long highlight show from the week that was in the English first division. And I fell in love with Arsenal. I fell hard. Their name, their kit, their larger-than-life cast of characters, their style of play with all the intricate passing, and jaw-dropping team goals. Before Arsene Wenger led the club to new heights. Heck, even before there was even an English Premier League. Arsenal has just always been my team for as long as I can remember.

Fast forward to the start of the 2014/15 season, and newly promoted Leceister City caught my attention. I still remember the piece NBCSN did on the newly promoted Foxes from “Lester.” And I thought if Arsenal were my top-of-the-table team, Leceister would be my relegation battle team. Leicester survived their first season back in the Premier League and then went on to become Premier League Champions during their unbelievably magical 2015/16 season. All of a sudden Leicester is my team competing for top-four finishes. Because in the meantime, Arsenal forced out their club legend manager, Arsene Wagner and is now somehow a middle of the table team.

Long story short, I’m a big fan of two football clubs.

Today, Leicester played in their fifth FA Cup final. They’d made the finals on four other occasions and lost all four, the last itme being during the 1968/69 season.

But today, the Foxes won their first-ever FA Cup by beating Chelsea 1-0 on a Youri Tielemans goal from 25 yards out. I collected a bunch of images from social media to commemorate the occasion…

It was an amazing match! It had a bit of everything… a banger of a goal from Youri Tielemans, an iconic save from Kasper Schmeichel, VAR controversary and most importantly, Leicester City lifting the Cup!

It’s Friday!

Good evening from Northside…

This morning we walked down to Blue Jay for Friday morning breakfast…

On the way home, we stopped and got Sidewinder coffees and finished out the rest of our work day…

Good evening from Northside…

We hung out in our backyard…

We had a couple of drinks that were in our refrigerator…

We had a good Friday. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸ₯žπŸ»β€οΈ

Happy 513 Day!

Today is May 13th, also known as 5-1-3 Day…

It’s a day to celebrate all the things from area code 513 and Cincinnati…

Good morning from Northside…

They’ve been working on disassembling a tree just off Pullan Street. They’ve been working on it since we got home from our trip but we weren’t sure which tree they were working on. Today, it became pretty clear…

They’ve also been resurfacing Pullan…

I wish they would work on the rest of the streets in Northside next. It was another really gorgeous day…

Good evening from Northside…

We talked about getting Skyline for dinner tonight in honor of 513 day. Because what’s more 513 than Skyline chili? But we decided to get hoagies from NYPD instead…

And then we played in our backyard for a bit…

And then we crashed out for the night…

We had a pretty good 513 day. Hopefully next year, things will keep more normal and we can do 513 day even better. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸŒ³πŸš§πŸ₯ͺ🍟❀️

Today was a very pretty day.

It was really pretty this morning…

Good morning from Northside…

And it was very pretty this evening as well…

Good evening from Northside…

We had spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread for dinner tonight…

It’s been a minute since we’ve had spaghetti. And I love spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread.

After dinner, we mowed the little bit of grass we have in our backyard…

This afternoon we watched Arsenal complete the double over Chelsea for the first time in 17 years with a gifted 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge. And later, we watched Minnesota United pick up their first win of the season, 1-0 over Vancouver.

It was a pretty good Wednesday. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸπŸ‘β€οΈ

Getting back to our routine.

We were getting back into our routine this morning…

Good morning from Northside…

It was pretty slow start to the short work week. It was nice to ease back into work…

Good evening from Northside…

We made BLTs for dinner tonight…

Mine was more of turkey club actually…

Mack was trying his best to wait patiently to go outside so we could play in our backyard…

Later, we finished watching season one of Ted Lasso on Apple TV. It was super cute. And pretty hilarious. We really can’t wait for season two. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸ₯ͺπŸΎπŸ“Ίβ€οΈ

Good evening from Northside.

We got back home from our trip early this afternoon…

We had a wonderful time on our vacation…

We had a very relaxing week. But it’s good to be home…

Good evening from Northside…

I think Mack was the happiest of all of us to finally be home…

It’s really good to be back home. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸΎπŸ‘β€οΈ

Two years ago.

Two years ago, we were just starting our epic road trip with Oscar, #gtfOscarRoadTrip2019…

It was an incredible adventure. It was our first road trip with Oscar and our first to Outer Banks…

It seems like every hotel we stayed at had a continental breakfast with a waffle maker. I ate a bunch of waffles on our road trip…

And it started a vacation photo series of Genifer eating breakfasts…

It really lived up to it’s hashtag of an epic road trip. πŸ˜€πŸΎπŸ—ΊοΈπŸ§‡πŸ˜β€οΈ

After these messages…

We’ll be right back. We’re heading back out to Duck, North Carolina in the Outer Banks. It’s kind of become our happy place.

Follow along with our trip on our Flickr… and maybe on our YouTube. πŸ˜€πŸ—ΊοΈβ€οΈ
