Weekend Recap

Most weekends seem to fly by, but for some reason this weekend seemed longer than usual.  I think it's because we packed so much into it that it seemed like there was an extra day in there somewhere.

This was our first Halloween in our house.  I had fun decorating for the holiday this year, and we were pumped about having trick-or-treaters.  On Friday, I made it a point to get home a little early, cut on our porch light, and opened the front door.  I waited and waited, and not a single kid came to our door!  So disappointing, and now T and I are stuck with a 5 lb bag of Kit Kats and Reese's. What a shame.

Later that night we went to a Halloween party at a friend's house.  T dressed up as Richard Simmons, and I was Jane Fonda.  Both of us were way out of our comfort zones with what we were wearing.  I've never worn something so skin tight in public, and this was the first (and hopefully the last) time T has ever worn shorts that short.  All of the costumes that night were on point.  I must say, we've got some pretty creative friends.

 On Saturday, I headed to Lake Hartwell with my bible study group for a retreat.  It was such a great getaway, and I loved getting to spend more time with these girls.  We completely unplugged for the two days that we were there, and spent the whole time eating junk food and playing games.  Very different from my typical weekends, but so needed.

On Sunday afternoon, T and I spent several hours in the yard raking up leaves.  10 wheelbarrow loads later, our yard is finally rid of all the leaves.  I'm hoping that that will last us for a few weeks, because after all of that raking I am sore!

Hope y'all had a great weekend, too!
