Blogtember : Memory Lane

Day 11: A memory you would love to relive

I am going to bend the rules and pick a few moments because I really can't narrow them down.
They are all special to me for different reasons and occurred at different times in my life.

In no particular order:
-our wedding
-Australia. Every second of it
-College. Almost every second of it
-our honeymoon
-buying our first home

So basically any time that involves friends, fun and vacationing and I'm on board to do it all over again.

What memories would you like to relive?

Weekend Wrap Up: Best

We had just the best weekend.
A little bit of alone time with the Mister
and a bit of time with the besties.
Best of both worlds.

Friday night the Mister and I decided to have a low key date night.
We went to the movies (hadn't been in forever) and saw Argo.
Guys, oh my.
It was SO good but SO stressful.
We both really, really enjoyed it but I bit off all of my nails in the last 30 minutes because it was so intense.
Remember how in Apollo 13 the last bit of the movie has you on the edge of your seat?
It was just like that...only more stressful.
After the movie, we needed something to settle us down so we went to Orange Leaf.
Froyo makes everything better. 
 You think he got enough Resses?
 
Saturday morning I got up bright and early and headed to Indianapolis for Butler's homecoming.
(Almost) all of the besties were there and it was just such a fantastic day.
There were a few key players that we dearly missed but we know they were there in spirit and they better come next year :)

We are never ones to do anything on a small scale. 
 I am pretty sure we had enough food and drink for all of Butler.
I am very lucky to be graced with friends that are such amazing cooks.
We had everything from bacon jam to apple pie spice puppy chow.
 
It was just the best day.
Good times, good friends, good memories, good laughs.

Sunday we took a family trip to the pumpkin patch once I got back to town.
Here's a sneak peak...I'll have more on our trip later this week! 
Floyd picked out some pumpkins
and came nose to nose with a donkey and some turkeys.
He was a little unsure of both.
 
How was your weekend? What did you do??
 
Linking up with Sami Dana and Leeann.

BU...

 TLE..RU a BULLDOG?!!

 We are beyond excited to cheer on the bulldogs tonight! Go Butler!!!

And almost more than we love Butler basketball, we love Butler Blue II.  He's by far our favorite mascot! When I was at Butler I had the opportunity to work in the same office as Blue and his owner worked in.  Let me tell you, having a dog in the workplace makes the day go much better!  Blue is incredibly well loved around Butler's campus and Indianapolis.  Blue even had his own seat for the flight down to Houston and his own security detail once he got there!


GO DAWGS!
