Thankful Thursday!

I am surrounded by amazing people that love and support me unconditionally and for that I am extremely thankful!

Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving Day!!

Uneventful Weekend!

What a very uneventful weekend! Friday night, Mike cooked a yummy dinner, we watched The Ugly Truth, and then called it an early night. I had to work Saturday and Mike had a softball tournament so Saturday night was pretty much a repeat of Friday night. Dinner, a movie, and in bed early. I spent Sunday cleaning the house and that night I met David, Kammy, Jay, and Ashley at Chili's for dinner.

It was the perfect uneventful weekend before this crazy busy week started! This is the first year Thanksgiving dinner will be held at my house. I'm so excited but my "To Do" list is a mile long!

Game Night, Sunsets, and a Reception

Friday night, Mike and I went to Logan's Steakhouse for dinner and then to Ben's house for game night. I baked chocolate cookies and Kelly cooked lots of other yummy snack foods. We played, Apples to Apples, a couple of times and then visited for the rest of the evening. I found myself at the food table more than once-It just was all so good!

Saturday Mike had a softball tournament so I spent the day shopping and doing homework. This was my view on the way home. Sorry it's so blurry but you get the idea- it was beautiful!

Sunday Mike got up early to go deer hunting. I've known Mike for 9 years and had no clue that he liked to hunt! He met his dad and they spent the day in the woods. Even though they didn't have any luck, Mike said he really enojoyed it!

I headed down to my hometown, Ozark, for Jay and Kammy's reception. They got married in Eureka Springs- just the two of them and their parents in attendance. Today was the reception with all the family and friends.

It turned out to be a beautiful day! I was so honored to be included in their special day!
Congrats again Jay and Kammy!!

I wish...

... I had this bathroom. I love the contrast between the dark hardwood floor and the bright white of everything else.


I'm in need of a nice warm bubble bath- wish I had that tub!

Happy Thursday- the weekend is almost here!

Weekend Recap!

Friday night, my friend Ben threw a surprise birthday party for his brother at Sassy's BBQ. Mike and I ate some great food and had a couple of drinks and then called it an early night. We knew we had to get up early Saturday morning to start tailgating and wanted a good nights sleep before the long day.

We got early, like 5:30 in the morning early, Saturday and got ready for a morning of tailgating. The Hogs pulled out a 33-16 victory against the gamecocks! WOOT WOOT!

Mimosas!

We tailgated after the game for a little while and waited for the traffic to die down and then made our way to Boar's Nest for dinner. We thought about going to Dickson but we were both tired and sunburned so we came home got in our pj's and watched movies.

We've spent today watching football and playing UNO.

It's been such a great weekend!

P.S. I realize that in my last post I said that it was the last home game but I completely forgot about Troy coming to town next weekend!

Happy Game Day!

It's going to be a beautiful day in Fayetteville. Not only are we going to whoop up on the Gamecocks but it's supposed to be sunny and 78 degrees. Can't beat that in November! This is the last home game of the season. Well technically it's not since they play in Little Rock next weekend, but I'm talking about on the Hill! We're getting ready to head out and start tailgating before the 11:21am kickoff!

GO HOGS GO! VS.

Where Have I Been?!

Work, Work, Work! I received a job offer Oct. 16th, started Oct. 19th, and have worked 136 hours in 14 days. I'm one tired girl! I haven't worked since the end of May so it's been a little tough getting back into the working world. I'm starting to get into some what of a schedule now though!

I've spent my free time (what little I've had) hanging out Mike, celebrating Abbe's birthday, cheering on the HOGS, and trying to get caught up on the DVR and laundry!

These pictures are from Abbe's birthday night. We went to La Huerta for dinner and drinks and then to Dickson for more drinks. We had such a great time!

So that's where I've been! :)
