Fall Break

Thursday and Friday of this week was fall break for LSU, so I decided to request off work for two days to make the most of my break.

Parker and I spent Friday running all of our errands we haven't had the time to run between school, work and being parents to two dogs

On that errand list was picking up pumpkins!

How cute is our front door?!

Leo is pretty excited for his first Halloween!

Saturday was a much more relaxed day for us

Parker and I got up at 7:30 am with Leo and then napped on and off until noon

It was absolute heaven!

The only thing on our to-do list was to take Benny to get groomed, so while Ben was getting pampered we decided to take Leo over to the pool to test his swimming skills

It took a little coaxing, but he finally took the plunge!

After Leo wore himself out in the pool, Parker and I had plans to sit our butts on the couch and watch the Ole Miss/Alabama game

Unfortunately, we were having some internet issues and the technician that was scheduled to come out and fix it for us was a no show, so we had to improvise

Parker and I decided to go down to the workout room and watch the game from there until someone could come out and fix our cable issues before the LSU game started

It definitely wasn't the best part of our day by any means, but you just have to make the best out of crappy situations sometimes...

And always have a good bottle of wine waiting for you at home to pop open to relieve some of the stress

I think this picture about sums us up...

Although the day did not go exactly as planned (no internet and LSU getting completely destroyed by Auburn), it was still one of the best days I've had since all of the chaos of the past few months began

things are starting to finally feel settled again & I could not be more happy about it
