Way Back Wednesday!

I really want to make one of those little icon things for Way Back Wednesday but was being indecisive on what image I wanted to use for the icon this evening so maybe next week.. haha.. :) So, sometimes I don't jump on Way Back Wed (WBW) b/c I forget, am traveling, am tired, etc etc etc.. but I still like to keep it going when I can b/c I think it's fun to grab old pics and post em with a story! I love that Stacia started this whole thing! :) If you wanna join, would love to see your way back! Leave a comment if you're feeling WBW this week and jump on the bandwagon!

Happy first day of Fall!! Fall makes me think of lots of things.. Halloween, pumpkin patches, leaves, brisk weather, scarves (got my partner in the scarf swap btw!! So excited!), fireplaces, the fair.. oh.. and OKT!BERFEST! So, while I had it on the brain, decided to use it for WBW today! I think (forgive me if I'm wrong) this was O-fest 2006! See Ashley in there?!
Poor Andrew. (Sarah, your husband gets points for being awesome and posing. That is all).
Had SO much fun at O-fest that year. And may have also taken a pics with people with mullets all night. I was going to post a funny one, but then decided against it. It was a bad decision, albeit funny... but yeah.

Speaking of hair, I had mine done today! Hoooooray! I moved my appt so I could attend the football game last weekend and felt like it was long overdo. I had some dark blonde added in and my color looks more fall-blonde than beach-blonde. Love it!

Got to head to a meeting at my regular job today! They had their UW breakfast and it was soooo good to see some of my coworkers I havent seen in a month (can you believe I've been at the UW a month this week?)! I've missed them so much! Tomorrow, I'm helping another loaned exec with his accounts at the fire stations.. haha.. This, my friends, should be interesting. I really just want to wear the hat. Let's not kid ourselves. (Getting up and putting camera in purse right now). On this note, getting campaign packets in one by one.. and have a long long loooooong time before I'm anywhere near my goal, but it feels good to be getting some stuff in.

And finally, when it comes to fall, as I said above I think of everything from pumpkin patches to scarves and Oktoberfest. (I'm really wanting to go a pumpkin patch this year btw.. That whole broken back thing on Halloween last year was a total buzzkill. ;) ). But, what do you think about when you think of fall?

Pic of you, Ash and Andrew - killer awesome.

Love your Christmas idea! Let's do it.

I look disgusting in that picture, and don't pretend that I don't! Was that only 3 years ago?! It has to be because that's my and Mary's old apt with HER couch, so it was after I graduated and moved out. Yes, I thought that much about it.

Also, I do not understand this whole "missing co-workers" thing. Very strange concept for me. ;)

When I think about fall, I think of pumpkin patches, football (yuck), leaves turning, and Oktoberfest (of course)

I like how Andrew is covering his junk just in case it's all just a cruel trick or something. HAHA

I love me a chili-dog in the fall washed down by a pumpkin ale. Oh, and I like the leaves as well. Have a great day!

I'm beyond happy that fall is finally here! Let me know if you find a "real" pumpkin patch near Tulsa. We looked last year and only ran across large stands set up in Bixby and BA...

I think of scarves and fingerless gloves and pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, and spicy-scented candles, and cuddling on the sofa under warm blankets. And tea. Loads and loads of hot tea. I am so jealous of you guys and your weather right now. I'm wearing a sundress and it's currently 96 degrees and QUITE hot.
