Late last Friday night I was sitting on the couch watching
Scrubs on Netflix, half falling asleep, when Chris walked in the door. It was
the perfect start to the weekend. I’ve been hinting at it the last few posts
but I’m now officially sharing that we found a new house and are set to close
in a few weeks. Chris had only seen the house from the pictures in the listing
and the ones I took when I went to see it before putting in an offer. Saturday
we headed over to see it along with my parents, Chris’s dad and brother. The
new home we are purchasing is owned by a relocation company so an inspection
had already been done but I wanted the guys to double check everything. We even
sent Chris to the attic to make sure there wasn’t anything living up there.
Luckily, there wasn’t. It was a chilly fall day and standing in the backyard I
could picture us being out there with the dogs and our family and friends.
Sunday we took a trip to a local pumpkin patch and went out
into the field to pick some big pumpkins. And of course we said hello to all
the farm animals and bought my most favorite apple cider ever. It pairs
amazingly well with a little maple flavored
whiskey if you’re looking for a sweet fall cocktail. Slice up some thin pieces
of honey crisp apple and you’re good to go.
We celebrated our niece Miyah’s 3rd birthday in
the afternoon with family and even though they were serving chili they made mac
n’ cheese for this vegetarian. Our gift to the birthday girl was a toy dog park
with these fat little puppies that sort of waddle around. She and her cousin
were so cute playing with it together and doing a pretty good job of sharing!
It’s really hard to share when you’re 3.
And what better way to end the weekend than with snuggles? I
went to get Ares for bedtime and he did the sweetest thing. I told Chris to
hurry with my phone and take a picture. Immediately after this picture was snapped
he popped right up. At least I had that fleeting moment.
Is it Friday yet? Nope. Okay, happy Tuesday!
