Fall + Football + Food + Friends/Family + Fast Five = Fabulous!
October 08, 2011
Well, the 100+ degree temperatures are FINALLY gone for good; I'm bound to get a speeding ticket after watching Fast Five a few times, now that it's finally out on DVD; and my SOONERS beat the crap out of those nasty longhorns to stay at # 1 in the country. Life is good.
Oh, and did I mention that in less than a month, Corey & I will be on our way to Destin for a much-needed vacation right on the beach? Ahhhh....can't wait!
With the fall has come some gorgeous sunsets that we get to enjoy right outside our back window...:
...And the sunflowers are in bloom:
And if you remember from this post when I planted the mums, they are now in full bloom too!
I've got the wonderful Bath & Body Works fall candles out (my favorite this season is "Leaves." If you haven't tried yet, you need to), and after a short panic attack, I found my fall table settings that I was scared didn't make the move:
This week was the busiest I've been in a while, so I didn't get to enjoy my kitchen any :( I'll be making a chocolate cheesecake w/ peanut butter cookie dough tomorrow though for a birthday at work on Monday. Yumm!! Nothing like gaining a few pounds at the beginning of the week :) If it's any good, I'll post it on my Recipes page. Also, you can check out the House Pics page for some more fall decor pics. It's not much, but just wait until Christmas :)
Halloween is coming up soon, and I genuinely cannot wait to have trick-or-treaters come to our door! We've never been where anyone can come to our door; not in Stigler, where we lived on the highway, or in Norman, where we lived in apartments. So I want to decorate our front porch and dress up in a costume and hand out candy. Back in '05, I convinced Corey to dress up for Halloween! Of course we had to coordinate. Our costumes? Al & Peggy Bundy! I have a picture in my senior book but I can't find a digital copy. :(
Not much else going on around here. I'll let you know when there is :)
Boomer Sooner!!!
