Weekend Happenings

 So Rich worked super hard to get the deck finished for our little get together on Friday night.
I have to brag...he really is the best!


 The weather was perfect Friday and finally felt like fall.  It was so nice to be able to sit out in the back yard and enjoy the weather, good friends, and all of Rich's hard work!


Rebecca made the most delicious mocha brownies and Jessica made a scrumptious pumpkin cake with cream cheese icing!  Recipes to come...too good not to share!


After a late night on Friday we got up at 6:15 on Saturday to run a 5K downtown.  Rich ran the race in 28 minutes and I ran it in 32 minutes.  Thanks to Jessica for running with me in the weeks leading up to the race!


 After the race we took the pups to the dog park.  By the time Chloe came to see them at 2PM they were pooped!

Grizz can barley hold his eyes open...we all took a nap that afternoon :)


I finally got my latest estate sale find out of the garage and into its new home.  This is a sewing table which I am going to use as a craft table/desk in the "PINK" room.  More details to come.


My window boxes have been up for two weekends now.  I originally bought white pansy's to plant in them but pulled them up because they were not getting enough sun.  So I debated on what to put in them and opted for some fake pumpkins and leaves from Michael's.


I was nervous they were going to look too fake but I added some natural dried plants and sticks and I am thrilled with how they came out.  I also added lights so they looks really cute at night.

More Projects!

 You would think we would be sick of projects.  But there always seems to be a running list of things that need to be done and things we want to do.  One thing we wanted to do was build a deck or a patio in our back yard.  When we purchased the house there was an existing small deck but it was in poor condition so Rich tore it down.  

We finally decided that we would build a deck back rather than lay a patio.  I am really excited to finally be able to enjoy our back yard!

Fall Nails

Up until about two years ago I always bought 99 cent nail polish from NYC or Wet N Wild which worked just fine.  But one day I bought some OPI and I have been hooked ever since.  

I am loving these colors for FALL!





This is for Tennessee games of course!
