Weekend in Review

TOP LEFT: is my fall inspired chicken, brie, and apple sandwich with homestyle mac & cheese. Seriously? Yes. And I could already eat it again. TOP RIGHT: Joe's Virginia Ham Biscuits on, yep, pumkpin bread. BOTTOM LEFT: When Sunday touted a low temp of 44°, I decided it was time for this pair of Calvin Kleins to make their seasonal debut. BOTTOM RIGHT: With cool temperatures outside and a sick husband inside, there was a lot of couch/kitty snuggling at our house this weekend.

Well hello, Monday! As per usual, this weekend came and went before I realized I was back at work making my first morning cuppa joe. However, my husband and I did manage to squeeze in a few fun activites before the inevitable cold virus fell on our house and took my husband hostage. Which, yes,  has led me to pump my body full of oodles of antioxidant gren tea, every vitamin in our medicine cabinet, and any Vitimin C filled citrus fruit I can get my hands on... hey, my strong-as-an-ox husband is sick for the first time in years, and someone has to take care of him!

But back to happier and healthier days: Joe and I FINALLY double dated up with our new-parent friends to enjoy some delicious food and outdoor weather before going to see Lawless (Tom Hardy. Gary Oldman, Shia Labeouf, Jessica Chastain -- definitely recommend, but beware if you are squeemish!) Nothing beats the Downtown Mall on a 70° Friday night with some seriously good-for-the-soul food and a sweet newborn in tow. What can I say? She was a welcomed fifth wheel; that baby girl is as precious as they come.

The second part our our weekend consisted of a little relaxing, a lot of closet overhauling, taking care of my sick hubby, and of course football.  Our Alma Mater, Mississippi State University, is 4-0!! It was a big night for us Davises crouched in front our baby macbook screens watching a poor quality pay-per-view showing of the football game. It was worth the sacrifice, though, it will VERY exciting to see our guys play live again in a couple weekends in Kentucky. Maroon dresses, tall boots, and cowbells: here we come! Hurray for fall!

Hope all of you had a fabulous first weekend of atumn!

    1. We call her our daughter.. she's a little too spoiled for a cat, but I don't know what we'd do without her!
