Check this out first!
Courtney @ Little Miss MBA is featuring me for her Young Professionals Series today!
Susannah @ Simple Moments Stick featured me on her blog last week for 15 Awesome Couple Costumes.  If you go there, you can see some awesome ideas and also see Nick and I as Patty Mayonnaise and Quail Man!

Man, what an exhausting Monday.  I drove back from Starkville this morning.  Then I ran 9 miles for training and it went remarkably well with the exception of surprisingly getting sunburned… the weather was just so perfect I didn’t even think about it!  Then I got ready for my best friend’s baby girl’s funeral.  It was a beautiful day for the funeral.  The service was more than I could have dreamed, the words spoken were true and from the heart and from someone who has been in their spot.  They were encouraging, comforting & challenging.  Then I came home and started getting to work on the blog.  I feel behind since I didn’t take my laptop with me this weekend, but my legs are so exhausted from the run, that they’ll enjoy laying in bed working on the blog while I watch Bones.

I checked on the boys Pumpkin Beer Brewing and I’ll be updating y’all tomorrow on how the process is going.  When I arrived and saw it though, it looked like this….

This weekend was really really good.  It was Bulldog Bash in Starkville.  I arrived in town Friday evening and we had dinner and then headed out to the concert – The Black Crows.

Got to see my sis!

Can I just say… I’m NOT a fan of concerts… like at all.  I was pretty miserable and believe me, there will be a post coming soon about all the reasons I dislike concerts!  bleh… it was awful!

Saturday was a beautiful day.  We chilled at the house most of the day, ran some errands and then got ready to go to the game.  We played LSU.  We didn’t do much tailgating, a lot of my friends actually weren’t around this past weekend, so that was a bummer, but we enjoyed walking around campus and seeing a few folks here and there.  We ended up at the game close to half time and stayed til the very end.  Usually we go when it starts and stay up until half time, but we enjoyed this tactic better.  People started filing out early, it was beautiful and breezy, just relaxing.  Afterwards, we headed out to the Cotton District and had a few drinks at Stagger Inn.  We then went and grabbed some Papa John’s because it’s absolutely our FAVE on a late night.  I snagged a few great pics from the top of the stadium seats looking out over campus.  I just love this view.

And I love when I band does this!

What did you do this weekend?
Did it finally cool off around you so you could experience FALL?
Did your team win/lose this weekend?  We definitely LOST.
