we've been pretty busy so tonight we decided we needed some "us" time before michael started back on his school work (which he's doing now while i blog). he took me to a mexican place up the street... and refused to take pictures. our waiter kept calling us "me amigos" in a strong accent... it was great. then, we sat outside with millie for a while and just enjoyed the nice (warm) fall evening. the leaves are starting to change! our neighborhood is pretty quiet besides hearing some kids laugh, a couple of dogs bark and people talking as they walk by. it's SO much better than living downtown hearing people yell because they are pretty much drunk at every hour of the day or weird irish music like our old neighbor listened to, loudly.
now we're going to enjoy some pumpkin spice cookies i baked today. i've already had three and shared some with my friends, karissa and erin, when they came over earlier. they are delicious!!!
ohh and i'm so excited because my mom, sister and her kids will be here saturday! i haven't seen them in over a month and they only live an hour and a half away. sad!
awesome pictures! all are so "fall". i especially love the trees and dog pictures...too cute!
ReplyDeleteI love Millie. She has the best eyes. I want to have one.
ReplyDeletethanks allie!
ReplyDeletepaige, she is so sweet! just laying down cuddled up next to me. a handful when she was younger, but she's only 7 months and has calmed down a ton. get one. she's great with kids, too!
Your dog is so cute! Reminds me of my Golden Retriever.
ReplyDeleteMmmm I love pumpkin flavored goodies. I really do love this time a year.

Sounds like a lovely day! And it definitely sounds better than downtown life.
ReplyDeleteI keep seeing people posting about pumpkin cookies, cakes, cupcakes, and other treats and I really wish I had the patience for baking!
I've been wanting to make some of those pumpkin cookies! I found a recipe the other day. But I made pumpkin muffins, and now I am waiting on the the loaf!
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun to hang out with you! We have some of the same friends, which is pretty cool. :) Like Karissa and Erin!
