Fallish Weekend Recap

Happy Monday!  It is a happy one for me indeed.  With the Veteran's Day Holiday tomorrow and a few things to do this afternoon I opted to just make this weekend into a 4 day weekend so I feel like I started my weekend all over again this morning. This was one of the highlights.

We used to do this with our dogs when I was growing up.  They would tear the bag up....Hawk and Peanut would apparently rather pull the treat out without tearing the bag.

So things got a little crazy last week.  I found out on Wednesday afternoon that would be moving into my new office at work.  The kicker?  I was out of the office all day Thursday and half of the day on Friday for workshops. I still managed to get everything moved, but I am pretty sure it will take me the remainder of this week to get everything organized.

While I was at my meeting on Friday morning I had the pleasure of discovering I had picked up a nail (or so I thought) in my tire on the way in. Thankfully a very nice gentleman who was parked beside me and heard me on the phone trying to figure out who I knew downtown that could change my tire.  He offered to change it for me, and I found out he was some kind of rodeo guy.  Of course as soon as I saw my flat tire, all I could think was why didn't I pay closer attention when my dad showed me how to change a tire when I was 16.  I am pretty sure if it came down to it I could have figured it out but I was in business attire and really didn't want to have to try.  I am just glad to know there are still good people in the world who are willing to help out a stranger in need.  I am definitely going to pay that one forward.

Friday night we got to host the first round of the playoffs and got a win!!!  It was an exciting first half, but we pulled away (thankfully).  We get to host again this coming Friday which we are really hoping will work to our advantage.  The team we're playing is pretty good so we're going to have to have a great game, but it's the playoffs so anything can happen!

Saturday was of course full of football.  We changed things up a bit and went over to one of the coaches' houses.  It was a lot of fun and all of the Bama fans were relieved that they pulled out a win. But I did feel bad for all out our Auburn Fan friends.

Sunday was spent enjoying the fall scenery.  Our trees are finally starting to turn and the leaves are absolutely beautiful!

Can you spot the stubborn munchkin dog in this one?

This is my favorite tree in our neighborhood.  I can't get enough of it!
