Breakfast.
OK, I'm a morning person. I may have said this before.
I may not get up super early on the weekends... my usual is 8:15 but I'm wide awake and ready for the day. Usually making coffee, breakfast, doing laundry and washing dishes, checking email, calling and annoying family, opening blinds and curtains letting the sweet morning sunshine in!!
This type of behavior tends to make non-morning people (Michael) extra cranky. The opposite is true at night, he being a night person... I might add.
But some weekend mornings, I know that if I'm patient enough and hold tight the reigns on my ecstatic morning feelings (this is not easy) and just wait... my non-morning partner will come out of his fog and make my favorite meal of the day...
Breakfast!
or in this case it was brunch but I withheld that comment!He totally came through...
Fried fish, hash browns, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, sliced avocado, sliced tomatoes, and toast.
I can't wait till next year when I have the strength to keep my morning person at bay again!!

see.October-fest

The end of October is always fun for me because there is so much going on... College football more specifically the Florida v. Georgia game, Halloween, and my birthday.
I have always enjoyed having my birthday sit on Halloween Eve. There is always something to do and I can't help but feel like everyone is dressing up in funny/scary/silly costumes just for me!
We had a busy weekend and it started with a costume party Friday night.
Mike picked the theme this year for our costumes and I personally felt they turned out pretty great considering I spent a total of $12 and 1 hour on them. Not bad!
We were Katy Perry and Snoop Dogg.
From the California Girlz music video.
I didn't have a cup cake suit but I made do with what I had to be the best Snoop I could.
Mike was a pretty convincing Katy Perry... especially considereing he didn't shave his beard or put any effort into being a glossy California girl. He was definitely more San Francisco, California girl then L.A. California girl.
If you watch the Katy Perry video all the way to the end (sorry to make you do that), she actually has whip cream shooters on her ta-tas. So Mike, too, had working whip cream ta-ta shooters. Which came in handy at the party where they had un-whipped jello shots.
Happy Halloween!

Moving on,
Besides the best concert ever, birthday dinner, and a trip to a very scary haunted house, Mike also made a sweet Sunday picnic for me for my birthday.
Just some sandwiches, snacks, soda and my 2 favorite guys. Nothing fancy... just how I like it.
Our favorite soda. Ginger Ale. Yum.
Picnic and then play time with Miles dog.
Another great b-day!
