Fall..

(this is a song, remember by Clay Walker)

Eh?? Yes, it’s here!! I love love LOVE this weather..cold, rainy, snuggly weather!! Don’t you??!! The temperature, the colors, the smells..ahhh.  All I wanted to do was stay curled up in my PJ’s all weekend long, however I didn’t.. that is ALL weekend ;). On Friday, Matt and I met Ginger and Seane at the movies to see..

It was pretty dang cute, but keep in mind I sooo heart Vince Vaughn, so that may have had something to do with it! =) After the movie, no one was up for another, so I took Matt home and came back to see..

S-A-D! It was good, maybe too because I super duper heart Jennifer Anniston, but I enjoyed it.. After the movie, I headed home and headed straight to bed.

The next morning, I did get to enjoy just being laid up on the couch, snuggled with my blanket, watching TV for most of the morning. Matt decided to play golf that afternoon, so while he was gone, I ran to the store and came back and made sausage balls for the first time to take to that evening’s festivities! let me just tell you they were YUM-O, and a HIT at the party! We attended a surprise 30th birthday party for my cousin, Brad!

 

Brad and I are the “same age” (me hitting the big 3-0 in January) and so we were always the closest cousins. I’m one of five boys! To say the least, he was s-h-o-c-k-e-d, and genuinely had NO idea! We arrived at about 6:30, and waited for him to get there..

  This next picture really shows his emotion..he just kept saying, “Oh my Gosh, Oh my Gosh” haha too cute!! Brad hugging his dad Garyand our grandmother, Nini! =)

this was the, “I can’t believe these people came just for meeee??!!”

HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY BRAD!

Cody & Mel were there too, ha! not sure why I didn’t get a “real picture”..Mel’s birthday was on Friday, HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEL, but she spent the entire day at the Orlando, Houston & Shreveport Airports trying to get back to Longview..she ended up not getting home until after midnight, poor thing, what a way to spend your birthday, huh?!! =(

at least this one had fun!! =)

When Matt and I got home, we decided to watch a movie that Matt had been wanting to see forever. I saw that it was on pay-per-view, so I ordered it to surprise him while we were gone.. Ugh..have you seen this?? THE longest and slowest movie EVER!!! It was alright, it may have been that we didn’t start it until after midnight, but I couldn’t wait for it to be over, and I think Matt fell asleep!!

Sunday Funday was our normal routine, the Cowboys played the noon game, and for three very long hours I agonized over whether we would get the win or not..it was sooo painful to watch. I mean Kansas City, really Cowboys??!! Ugh- A win’s a win I suppose, thank goodness we have a bye week this week, I don’t think I could take another week of my sorry sorry team this soon!! After the game, Matt and I had a late lunch at Red Lobster, and then settled in for the night..Off to the work week..man, these weekend days seem to be going by sooo much faster!! Here’s to another!

Until Next Time!
