This past weekend...

Well, after my amazing birthday dinner Friday night- John and I got up and ate left overs. they were YUMMY! We also watched Beauty and the Beast. I love that movie :D *sigh* haha. We had hoped to go to the beach all day, but it poured. It rained all day too. It was sort of nice tho because we both needed a day to just relax and not do anything. We watched a lot of football- even though there were not many good games on, and then watched State play. Luckily, we won! YAY! :D

I dont even remember what else we really did that day. lol. I just remember it being an awesome day of relaxing and spending time together- MUCH needed!

Sunday was a FULL day for me. Each year, for the past 7 years, Mahoney has put on a pageant. The pageant determines who is Mister and Miss Mahoney for the year and they get to ride in the homecoming parade. I spent SO MUCH time working on planning this event. I had a group of 4 RAs help me, but it was still a ton of work. Sunday was the big event and I spent most of the day finishing sashes, getting a stage, decorating, and preparing for the event. I'll have to add pictures later because I dont have them yet- but it went really well! I was VERY please with how it turned out :D I am even more pleased that it's over. haha.

Since I had to work all day Sunday, I took Monday off. Luckily, John had Monday off too! We had planned to go to the beach, but decided that since he had a dentist appointment and a little bit of work to do that we would just relax around the apartment again. We ended up decorating for fall some! YAY! Our collection will be a growing one :D Since this is the first year we started, there isnt a ton yet- but one day there will be! haha. I also cleaned the apartment and did a lot of laundry. I love when the apartment feels clean! Then we watched some Monday Night Football and hung out. Carter loved that we were home for an extra day!! :D
Some of our decorations!

I LOVE FALL!

Anyway, it was really nice to take Monday off. I need a vacation bad. Luckily, we leave next week for Maryland! We usually pack those FULL of activities, so it was nice to have a relaxing day at home. However, I cant wait to get away for awhile!!
