Weekend Recap!

Okay, I want you to see something before I get into the weekend. Check out my little beast, Gracie.. She does this almost every time I leave. She heads over to the french door/windows and looks out (lower left peeking around the curtain). I wave at her and she sits there til I get in the car..then goes on about her doggie stuff. How freaking adorable, right?! Yeah. I love it. There was a time she stopped doing it when I was super busy and I felt like a bad parent or something.. haha.. We bonded and all is good with the world again. :)

Okay, Friday night, I shopped for shoes.. and turned up NOTHING. I have a question-are peep toes IN for fall? B/c they're everywhere. And my feet get cold, people. So I'm having an issue with this...haha.. I do, however, love the shoes out right now.. I even love the ones that look like your feet are in mini torture devices. They're haute! I just have an issue spending like a hundred bucks on shoes I likely can't wear once the temp drops. *sigh*

Soooo Saturday, headed to the tailgate!! Even though we had a wedding during the actual game, Eric didn't want to miss tailgating! And neither.did.I. :) Number one. Apron. Eric. haha... :)
His parents have a really awesome tailgate spot on the new tailgate area-I love it! I'm really digging the new area...everyone comes together and it's so fun! Grillmaster Eric. ;)
Ran into Katy who'd driven in from D town for the game
...and we may have tracked down the Incredibles/J@y Leno look alike new mascot. I have no idea what I was doing, but it ended up being pretty funny...
The band performing in the distance for the alumni tailgate :)
Headed out to Catoosa for Eric's friends' wedding! The flash wasnt on in this one, but I liked our smiles. Damn flash. Arg. hahaha...
Not that this one isn't cute.. Just sayin...(yes, I realize it's pretty much the same picture. Dont judge me. haha).
Jared's face.. awesome.. haha..
They'd taken dance lessons and performed their rehearsed dance-cute cute. :)
This little guy was kinda awesome. He was amazingly chill during the wedding and then stole the dance floor during the reception (as you can see)..haha..
Chris, Eric, Ryan :)

Carrie headed to get cake and returned with a 2lb plate o dessert... We opted to make fun (until we went to get our own, that is). ;)

Finally, last night's Jazz night at Ciao! Eric went to high school with the singer, Olivia. She's seriously awesome, guys.. for real. She even won an award this year to honor young professionals in jazz.

Wanna check her out? Here's a video. :)

I got a headband at Forever 21 and I can't decide if I can pull it off or not.. haha.. But, I figured a dimly lit room with jazz and wine was a good place to give it a shot (as opposed to a large, bright room with lots of people who could make fun of me, without alcohol). ;) This pic makes me laugh b/c I was giving Eric a hard time for making a funny face in the first photo (and I ended up kinda looking like a b!tch..oops). It's funny b/c I give him a hard time, but I actually love it b/c they're hilarious to look back on...and they take away the cheese factor I tend to bring to the table with my "let's take another (boring and posed) photo!!" ;)
...and he still smiled for my boring and posed one. A good man. ;)
Welp, came home from work today and they have the sidewalk pretty much dug up! I guess a water main broke *nervous* But it should be fixed tomorrow... So I guess that's good news! Headed over to Sara's to watch Gossip G!rl and then maybe over to Eric's for a shower (I owe him.. seriously.. I've kinda been a space invader lately...).

I hope everyone had a fabtastic weekend! PS.. I'm getting giddy excited about the possibility of Chicago hosting the Olympics! And I'm also really excited for TWO concerts this weekend! Yes, it's Monday and I'm talking about Friday. Whatever. Love love.
