October

Little recap on some October events.

1. I had my 26th birthday. Yikes. For my birthday Dane and I went shopping in the morning, watched the Arkansas game at noon, and went to dinner at Cheesecake Factory in Durham. At dinner I had eggrolls and mediterranean salad It was a great day. I got lots of goodies in the mail from some awesome family and friends.

2. Our friends Merritt and Adam sent us the first season of Friday Night Lights. We are crazy hooked. It's about a small town and their football team.

3. Dane's BFF Chris came to visit for an interview. They had an entire day of male bonding. I made it for the last 4 hours when we watched football and listened to old hip hop like Usher at Satisfaction on Saturday night. I worked Saturday night and staying up late to watch football and in a sports bar made me feel young.

4. The fall leaves are unbelievable here. Every day when we drive up on our road I see a tree that literally takes my breathe away. The sun always hits it just perfect and it feels like heaven is smiling on us.

5. I have recently made my Gran's cheesecake bars 2x. I can literally smell her kitchen. I miss her kitchen. I miss her.

6. I dressed up as the Cat in the Hat for work on Halloween. The kids thought it was great. Except for one of my sweet babies. Scared him I think. He actually smiled when I took the hat off ;).

6. My friend and former classmate Leigh is moving to NC this weekend!!

7. Beth is coming to visit for the weekend on Saturday!!!!

8. Thanksgiving break is LESS THAN 3 weeks away. :)
