Week in review and a project for the 5 people that read this...

Last night it rained and was quite chilly here in O town. I LOVED it. I love the fall and I adore the rain and this weather gets me excited for the winter... I know, I know. Once it snows I will definitely complain about it being too cold but one of my most favorite things ever is to sit on the couch with some hot chocolate and a blanket while it rains or snows. There is really nothing better (by the way, this is exactly what Celina and I did last night and it didn't disappoint). I love sweater weather and boots and coats and scarves. Oh it is joyous! I need to talk about my love for it now because come February I will be whining up a storm...
This past weekend my Dad and I went to New Orleans for a football game. (Lame I know, also not my idea). It was fun but it was the longest day ever. We flew there 1250 Friday night/Saturday morning and got to the ATL at 7ish their time. Sat in the airport until 915, got on the plane, plane had mechanical issues (this was not comforting by the way), sat on the plane at the airport for 2 hours, they finally decided to switch planes, got on a different plane, got the New Orleans at about 130, got our rental car at 145, drove straight to the game, game was boring and FREEZING, left when they were ahead by 21. Went to the French Quarter, bought voodoo dolls, ate beignets (donutey things, delish) and gumbo (interesting), drove through the lower 9th ward (sad), and then got to our hotel where I took a bath to warm my weary bones and went to sleep at 8 pm. Got up at 5 and flew home. Man, I love being home.
I'm going to Oregon this weekend with Greg and some of his friends for another football game and then I think I am vacationed and footballed out. Too bad the season goes until the end of November...shoot...

Uh it's almost Halloween everyone and I got all kinds of giddy at the target the other day in the seasonal section. I want everything over there... Pumpkin lights and spiderwebs. Oh I love it all. I don't know what I should be, so maybe if you leave me a comment you could give me a costume idea?
