The Money Pit!

We officially live in "The Money Pit"....ok, maybe not!

I love our house...but this week we had a leak that is TBD and a

dryer that went down.

So sad....

On a happy note...Rich and I hit up The Home Depot last night and got a new Washer and Dryer! They get delivered on Tuesday. We knew it was only a matter of time....

Our fancy new Maytag Bravo Washer....

and our fancy new Magtag Bravo Dryer!
Can't wait to test these out...Laundry is my favorite household chore and now I have HUGE capacity. I can taste the water and energy savings already! We even qualified for the PSE credit. Good times! Believe me, it's the little things that excite me!

Housewarming at H and Stripes Crib!

Two "love" birds...one stone!

Saturday night...Heather and Adam had a few friends over to celebrate their new place and watch the Husky game. We celebrated with GREAT foods, party punch and 99 Bananas! So much fun!

Me with Heather and Amanda! We punished ourselves with 99 Bananas each time the Sun-Devils scored.

Down the hatch!
Yep, they scored again!
Adam, Mel, Me and Heather...bottoms up!
Just watching the game!
Playing with Kea at half-time (Erin and Rich's puppy).
The pizza man arrived!
Heather handing out some hugs!
Adam...helping....I think?!?!
The "Love Birds"....2016!

Such a fun night!
Thanks H&A for so much fun!

Did you say sideline passes???

....and the ADVENTURE BEGAN!

Rich and I headed out at 2pm on Friday to meet Dan and Jessica in Pullman for a weekend of Football and Friends...and VERY, VERY cold weather!

We arrived at our "COUGAR GUESTHOUSE"...and enjoyed the house was painted in Crimson and Grey and even had COUGAR curtains.

Really, really?!?!

Friday night...we bundled up and headed to Rancho Viejo...

Home of the BEST MEX in Pullman...and DIRTY cheap cocktails!

Dan and Jessica...

Rich and I....
after dinner...we moved on to "THE OFFICE" for some drinks and socializing!
Jessica and I with our 3rd Long Islands....
"OUCH"...that looks painful!
My babe and I...all smiles and having fun!
The "mystery" couple...love them.

JUST MAKE IT HAPPEN KIDS!!!

...and of course, THE TOUGH GUYS!
On our way home, Jessica and I were hiding from the boys....great spot, huh?!?!
It's GAME DAY kids...and 24 degrees out when we got up!

Yes, Rich and I both have Carhartts now...except mine are LINED!

We got to the tailgate...and I let the FEASTING begin.

1st up...Corndog!

Next up...Bratwurst!

WITH many chips and treats in between...yes, I love to EAT!!!

The group shot before the game

...Cougar, Sun Devil, Cougar and DAWG!!!

It's game time...holler!

Rich and my view from the SIDELINE!

THANKS PT! It was awesome!

I even cheered for the Cougs!

After the game...ready to get some dinner.

Jessica celebrating the victory...Me, just ready for the Dawg Game!

Sunday Morning...we got up early and headed to Kennewick to meet up with Shawn and Rich's mom....and indulge in a little Taco Juan's!!

So Delicious!

The boys spent a little time "siting their rifles"...while I listened to the Hawks game from the comfort of the car!

Before we said our good-byes...I made Shawn and Rich pose together!
WHAT AN AWESOME WEEKEND!!!!

...and his Outdoor woman!

It's official...I got my 1st pair of Carhartt Overalls....

I ALWAYS

complain when we go to E. WA for our little outdoor adventures

...and now, I will be warm and have less to complain about.

Of course, this weekend we are going to Pullman

...but you know, that little town is growing on me.

Here's to an awesome weekend with Dan, Jessica and Rich!

Come on teams....I smell a VICTORY!!!

Outdoors man...

On Sunday morning....Rich set his alarm for 5:00 and headed out for an Outdoor adventure! He has really turned into a Outdoorist, even more so than a few years ago! It recharges his soul...for which I am grateful!

Here is a picture from his arrival...outside of Liberty on Sunday!

Some of the Cougar tracks that he saw...

and some Cougar poop!

So beautiful!

I heard so many great stories....and he even saw a Coyote on the way out.

The LUCK of the ....

IRISH!!! (and any other team that was up against Washington Sports this weekend)!!!

Ok, these cupcakes were from our friends Bryan and Michaela...but with me being so sick last week, they never made it on the blog!

How cute are they...and they were even more delicious!
Last night...we put PIGGY in a dress and acted like I wasn't sick and headed over to Naches for Bryan and Tina's wedding reception.

So much fun!

Here are Rich and I...Big Smiles!
And, the close up! Thanks Dan!
Rich and Dan...just hanging out!
...and the first dance!
Ok, my camera skills were definitely not up to par this weekend...but I am still not 100%. I promise...our trip to Pullman next weekend will be FULLY documented (at least the parts I can post)!!!

Here's to October!!!

Domestic - Take 27

It was Saturday morning....and after neglecting my "womanly" duties of chores, housework and....wait, it's not the 1950's. I WAS SICK this week....BAD! This morning, I was starting to feel more like myself to I put Domestic - Take 27 into action!

I made my husband coffee! I made my husband waffles! (BUT, I didn't serve him...he had to come down and get them)!
For the first attempt with the new waffle maker....they were decent. We definitely have ways to improve and then...it will be Waffle Saturday at our house!
Off to Yakima for a Wedding Reception tonight...congrats to Brian and Tina!

Also, Go Dawgs and Go Cougs!
Let's make you ALUMNI proud!!!!
