2. Yup...I jumped on the Bitstrips band wagon!
3. Bella is such a snugly puppy!! If I am taking a nap, she always jumps up to snuggle with me. I know I have said it before, but pit bulls really do get a bad rap. October is Pit bull Awareness Month~this article is really good.
4. Our downstairs is turned upside down, literally!! We are going to be staining the concrete floor in our living/dining/craft room. Pete is enjoying the big mess of furniture in the family room.
5. Mike and I went to Pei Wei for our weekend lunch date. I had a buy one get one free entree coupon~HOORAY!
6. I have not had one of these in a while, so after #5, we treated ourselves to a cone~YUM!

8. Kodi came over this weekend for a haircut!! He is such a sweet dog!! Sophie and Bella had fun playing with him.
9. Mike sanded our floors on Sunday...can you say GIANT MESS!! I thought #4 was stressful. I don't think I will ever get all the dust cleaned up. I am trying to keep the finished product in my mind, LOL!!
Enjoy Today!!!
From left to right:
1. Mike sent me this picture of Bella sunning herself up in the loft. This is usually where Pete sleeps. She thought it looked comfy I guess.
2. I have been drinking less coffee at work, but I still have my favorite mug on my desk.
3. It is fall, and Pumpkin is everywhere...my house smells like a candle store (so yummy).
4. Enjoying some time with my favorite lap dogs.
5. I was feeling very domesticated, and made cinnamon rolls (with extra frosting) from scratch. They were so good, which reminded me why I don't bake (I eat them!). I packaged them up and dropped some off to Ashley & Nate and Josh & Jess.
6. Mike and I went to a wedding on Saturday, so of course we snapped a picture of us all dressed up. I could not wait to get my shoes off and put my sweat pant shorts back on (I am a casual gal)!!

8. You know I love Peeps, my mom always sends me some for every holiday.

Enjoy Today!
From left to right:

3. A lunch break at one of our favorite spots.

9. Sunday morning by the pool. Mike and I actually broke out the sweat pants brrrrr!
Enjoy Today!
It has been a little crazy around here for me this week!!
From left to right:
1. Monday morning coffee and blog browsing on my iPad, my usual morning ritual before work.
2. On Wednesday (this is where it gets crazy), I had a little off road excitement. I was not feeling well on my way home for lunch (severe stomach cramps) and I started to feel really light headed. I was attempting to pull over, but did not make it in time, I blacked out, thankfully I only walked away with a black eye (no one else was hurt & and our car is OK). Mike came to my rescue and took care of me~Thanks Hun!!
3. My mom ordered me to go to the doctor on Thursday, so off I went, and of course had lots of blood taken. A gluten and dairy free diet may be in my future, I will keep you posted!
4. Bella (and Sophie) were my couch companions.
5. On Friday night, I ventured out with Mike to do some shopping.
6. Since my Doc suggested that coffee might be too hard on my stomach (even decaf, you can imagine my horror!), I am trying out different teas. This is going to be a HARD switch, I am not going to lie!!
7. My favorite cracker, which is neither gluten or dairy free, LOL!!
8. We are getting ready to rip out all our carpet~I cannot tell you how excited that makes me!! Apparently bamboo flooring needs to sit in your house for 2 weeks to get acclimated to its surroundings. I think painting is in my hubby's very near future (while the flooring chills out)...like next weekend!!
9. Sunday lunch, BLT with turkey bacon = YUM!
Enjoy Today!!
From left to right:
1. Bella is such a snuggle bug!! She is always right next to me.
2. Sophie's puppy class was cancelled on Thursday night (her trainer was sick), so I stopped by Pet Planet and picked up a treat for the pups. It kept them busy ALL night!
3. I made this for dinner on Friday night...super YUMMY, but not FAT FREE at all!!
4. Mike and I are doing some weekend projects, which will include painting. I find choosing paint colors very overwhelming!! But I am super excited for a fresh new look!!
5. Saturday morning coffee with my hubby!!
6. Chipolte lunch date on Saturday, which included, grocery shopping and sliding glass door shopping~Do we know how to party or what??
7. I have not had a SB's in a really long time. But since it is Pumpkin Spice Latte time...Mike and I treated ourselves before church.
8. We had a rainy Sunday morning, which was nice, but made me very unmotivated!!
9. I finally made myself get up and do some housework (see #8), cleaning the bathroom ranks right up there with grocery shopping!! I am always glad when it is DONE!!
Enjoy Today!!
