HappyGame Day!

VS. 2:30pm in Gainsville

I sure hope the HOGS stay on a winning streak but I'm afraid that it may not happen against Tim Tebow and the Gators!

We'll be out celebrating not matter what though! It's Abbe's birthday party and I got a job!

Come on HOGS- prove me wrong! WPS!

Winter Flowerbeds

I spent the day getting my flowerbeds ready for the winter. With all the rain that we've had in NWA most of my flowers still looked good but I knew that they wouldn't last long with the colder temperatures that are here now. I pulled out the periwinkles, coleus, and mondo grass and replaced them with pansies, snapdragons, dianthus, and some ornamental cabbage. I also got everything mulched.

The "after" pictures look bare but I know that in a couple of months it will be full of color. It's so nice to have color in the winter when everything else is brown and dead looking!

Thanks mom for all the plants!!

Fun Weekend!

I had spent most of the week at my mom's house so I was really looking forward to spending the weekend with Mike. Friday night, we decided to have a "date night" with dinner and a movie. We ate at Olive Garden and then watched Couples Retreat at the theater. Dinner was so good (I love their soup, salad and bread sticks) but the movie was kind of boring. There were a few really fun parts but other then that it was sssssoooo slow!

Saturday was game day! We started tailgating at 7:30am with breakfast burritos and Mimosas.



After the BIG win (HOGS won 44-23!) we met Ben, Kelly, and Ann at Sassy's for some BBQ and tequila shots!

I was exhausted after the big day and crashed at 11pm Saturday night. I'm sure the shots had something to do with that too! :)


It seems that football and naps have become a Sunday tradition with us and today was no exception!

What a great weekend!

Relaxing Weekend

Friday night I watched movies while Mike played make up softball games at Lake Fayetteville.

Saturday morning we went to Richards Meat Market to get steaks for dinner. They have the best steaks in NWA and Mike can grill them to perfection! He also grilled some zucchini and onions and I made a red velvet cake for desert.

Starting the grill for the steaks:

We watched football and played UNO all afternoon. Mike won 25 games to my 24 games!

After dinner we met some friends at Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the Razorback game. The HOGS beat the Aggies 47-19- woo hoo!
Ben and Kelly:
Jeremy and Brittney:
Mike and I:
I had to work on my biology project all day Sunday, but I was able to sneak in a little bit of football and a short nap so it wasn't a total bust!
Happy Monday!
