Oh Sunday - How you always get here so quickly.  I blink and then you appear.  Geez.

Hope you guys have had a great weekend! Mine was a tad busy at times but for the most part, pretty relaxing with some quality couch time.

Friday
...Yummy Ninfas for lunch...
...Jennifer and Mads came to work to visit...
...Ran after work...
...Hung out on the couch till bed time...

Saturday
...1:30am wake up to B's phone ringing resulting in me unable to go back to sleep, moving to the couch and hanging out there till about 4:50am when I finally went back to bed to try to sleep again...
...Buffalo Stampede 5k started at 8:00am for me, Jennifer, Mads and Robert...
...25 and a half minutes and 3.1 miles later I crossed the finish line...
...Yummy breakfast at La Bodega with the Buffalo crew and Traci and her finace Keith...
...Shopping for "Stock the Bar" shower gift...
...Nap for an hour on the couch, complete some school work, shower...
...Traci and Keith's "Stock the Bar" shower...
...Watched the Aggies look embarassing...
...Home, White Russian, Sleep...

That wonderful hubby of mine and the beautiful Madelyn Claire and the 5k ready to chear us all on!

The #1 sexiest runner at the Buffalo Stampede - And yes, he had a fanny pack.

I am so blessed to have the best support system!

Jennifer and I getting ready to start running!

The group! I think Mads had it the easiest!

Crossing the finish line! 25:30 baby!
Remind me not to run that fast for the 1/2 marathon. I won't make it for sure!

Here comes Jenny! I was so proud of her! 
First race since having Maddie.  I know it couldn't have been easy but it was great sharing that with her!

WE DID IT!
Got to love the sweaty pictures!

Here comes Robert and Maddie! Yay!

Mads first race! Got to start her young!

A Buffalo Stampede wouldn't be complete without a Buffalo!
Not sure why it thought it should try to cut Robert out...

The blushing bride, Traci, at the "Stock the Bar" party!
Her and Keith got so much wonderful stuff
Party anyone? Yes? Maybe...??

Check out that shower game action!
Traci had to close her eyes, feel on the men and try to guess which one was Keith.
Lucky girl - and lucky Bret!

I ended up stealing him away though!
I have a feeling she is OK with keeping Keith and me taking B back for myself!
Sunday
...Slept till 7:34am (thank goodness)...
...Headed to the gym to run my 5.5 miles...
...shower, breakfast, grocery store...
...football...
...Got my Fall decorations up around the house - yay!...
...football...
...Ate a three muskateers...
...Uploaded pictures, turned in a school assignment, now I am here!...

Yay for Fall decorations!
Our table:

The corner of our bar.
Mr. Pumpkin is full of yummy candy!

One of my favorite Halloween decoration!
The pumpkin plater was a gift and it's Fiesta Ware!
fiesta ware are the dishes I have and love.

I heart pumpkins!

The entrance hall complete with more Fiesta Ware!

One side of our entertainment center...

And the other side!

"Our Pumpkin" scrapbook.
Every year I take a picture of the pumpkin we carved together and add it to the scarp book!
It's fun looking back at each years design.

Oh yes, the candy that will be going to work.
I am all about the chocolate - B is all about the sugar stuff.

I know the decorations aren't much but I love them!  It's so fun to start the holiday seasons with new colors and decorations being added to your home! fun!

I am gong to be super busy tomorrow at work but I promise to try to make it around to catch up on yalls weekends! Hope you guys were able to relax and have fun!
