Whirlwind Weekending

What a whirlwind weekend, I haven't had a chance to stop and take it all in and now we're heading right back into another week. I am so thankful for the short holiday week next week, and the kick off to the holiday season.


Friday was dinner and drinks downtown with friends. I tried the most amazing apple mac n' cheese, and am still thinking about how to re-create that deliciousness!


Ughhh... Movember... love the cause/awareness I just miss my husband's clean-shaven face. December 1st please hurry up!


Saturday was BOGO holiday drinks at Starbucks, and I tried the Chestnut Praline.. YUM! Then it was doggy time, and I couldn't believe how adorable it was that there was a doggy water fountain on the trail we took her. She was so excited to have a drink after her walk.




I was absolutely exhausted, but ventured down the street to my neighbor's for the annual house divided game as one of them is a FSU fan and the other is a Miami fan. The trash talking is hilarious, and it's always a good time.






Sunday, it was time to shower the bride with gifts and of course we had champs... which is always a good idea. Can't wait for the wedding in a few weeks!

  3. I tried the praline drink at Starbucks too & fell in love. I love that it's not super sweet & tastes more like actual coffee. CJ is not participating in No Shave November which made me sad ha. He had a great scruffy look going & I told him he couldn't shave it because NSN...he shaved ha. He said it was bothering him & too itchy.

  9. I am so over the no shave November. My man friend is doing it with his office buddies and it's getting out of hand. I mean he honestly looks like an 80s porn star, check it out http://instagram.com/p/veyKN_nC8b/ That shower on Sunday looked like so much fun! I need more of my friends to get married so I can attend fun things like that.

  13. I settled for the peppermint mocha at Starbucks (I go with what I know). I wanted to try the praline, and I guess I should have! Glad you liked it and had a good weekend!
