Oh. It's Monday.

This weekend was busy. I feel like every weekend since we moved has been spent working on this apartment and trying to get it done as quickly as possible. Luckily, we're slowly getting there and I'm almost completely satisfied.. SO expect a little tour sometime soon!! 

Friday 

I demanded that I sleep in late, so I did! After we got up, Christian told me his mom was coming over in two hours... By Friday, our apartment is a wee bit messy and we usually clean up Friday or Saturday. So we cleaned as fast as possible while also getting dressed. But, his mom forgot she was coming over. Lucky for us we were all done cleaning and could enjoy the day! 

We went across town to Old Time Pottery to see what we could find for the apartment. I wanted to buy everything, but Christian kept me in check and we walked out with just a few really cute fall items. My grandmother works right next to the store, so I had to drive through the parking lot and see if she was there. She was, so we stopped and visited for a couple hours! 

Apartment sneak peek!

Thankfully, I had put dinner in the crockpot earlier in the day, so we came home to a delicious dinner and a movie! 
My boys.
Saturday 

Originally, we were going to Carowinds Friday night, but we stayed with my grandmother too long so we planned for Saturday. Sadly, it was rainy but we definitely made the best of it. I spent the first couple hours of the day talking to my best friend on the phone. She goes to Purdue so we hardly ever get to see each other and it really sucks! 

I did get to eat at one of my absolute favorite restaurants ever, The Flying Biscuit, and it was amazing. I've been living here for 4 months and this was the first time I've been over there. Shameful. 

Heaven. On a plate. 
After that, we headed to Old Navy so I could return some jeans that didn't fit which turned into a trip to Home Goods where we got THE cutest little chalkboard framed in our colors and another cute basket for our shelves! Then, I bought the best fall boots!! Now, I need it to be cold pronto!

Sunday 

As we know, I had to work all day. But, I came home and we made pizza for dinner and watched an episode of Scandal (I've got him hooked, too!) and played with Zuko for a bit for heading of to bed. 

Weird cat behavior.
