Fall Festivities and FOOD!

My new fav PSL... Can you believe this year McDonalds jumped on the PSL bandwagon?!? It's 1/2 the price, and has a wonderful cinnamon pumpkin flavor... not to mention the drive-thru line is so much shorter in the morning. I've splurged and had a whopping 3 this year, due to being pregnant and all.

We celebrated Mike's 34th Birthday by having pizza, wings and watching Falcons football

Couldn't miss the Norcross Arts Festival,in my GA hometown of Norcross

I had my 1st Fried Oreo... AMAZING

For sister's Birthday we headed to the mountains for the Apple Festival in Ellijay GA

It's been a very festive fall... and I couldn't think of a better way to spend my favorite time of year than with my favorite people.

Lessons From the Road

1) My husband is an expert at eating sunflower seeds. Almost squirrel like he stored a hand full of seeds in his cheek, cracked, chewed and spit the shells into an empty Krystal box for hours at a time. After knowing this man for eight years I never knew he had this talent. He attempted to explain the seed eating process to me, but I'm just not that coordinated. Along with lobster, shrimp and other nuts I just don't see the point of all of the effort it takes to get to a piece of meat or a nut so small. His lovely "spit box" 2) Hotel hair dryers are not normal. No matter where you are. Even at the nicest hotels they still manage to frizz and fry. Don't get me wrong I never leave home without my own personal hairdryer but for some reason I always want to try that cute little convenient one mounted to the wall. (Hotel Dryer) (My Dryer) 3) Never trust a seagull. These birds are mean and they will poop on you. Just lying on the...

It had been a long nine months and we could not wait to meet our baby boy. The night before the big day, Mike and I ate an early dinner at Outback Steakhouse since we knew it was going to be the last good "going out to dinner" we would have in a few days, or possibly weeks. We went home, packed for the hospital, loaded the car and tried to relax. We got a few hours of sleep the night before, maybe 2-3 to be exact but we were running on adrenaline at that point. March 14, 2014, 3:30 am: The morning the alarms rang loud and clear! Time to go. We hopped in the car and drove straight to Northside Hospital, check in was a breeze and before we knew it I was in a hospital gown getting prepped for surgery. The time flew by, right up until 7:00am when it was time for the epidural. After a very long hour of testing for numbness it was ...
