Christmas in October

As we are putting our apartment together in hopes of making it a home, one thing we wanted was some new pillows for our couch. Fancy Throw Pillow = $50
Cheap Throw Pillow = $20
Custom Made Throw Pillow = Priceless The talented Christine and Kelly Armstrong took our ideas and the fabric of our choice and made us these amazing pillows as our Christmas gift. They were kind enough to let us enjoy them now! We LOVE them. They came out so good! Thanks Mom and Sister!

So Tasty

Tonight, we along with our good buddy Brady, made some Delicious beer battered fish tacos! We had never attempted anything like it, but it wasn't too complicated and the result was muy bueno! Got the recipe from Our Best Bites... I like what they're cookin!

Let's just say advertising works. On my drive home from work there is a billboard for Dunkin Donuts. I have been seriously craving donuts for three months. This morning, Taylor finally gave in. We made iced coffee and chai at home. We picked up a 1/2 dozen dunkin donuts and then sat outside a Starbucks to enjoy our Saturday morning treat. We will be eating salad for lunch and dinner.

Fire and Ice

Two days ago it was 100 degrees and today large chunks of ice fell from the sky! We are SOOO grateful for the temperature to be under 90! When Joanna got home from work we talked about how we both had smiles on our faces the whole day just because it was cool out. Pretty funny :)

Picture 1: driving home, I realize I'm about to hit some serious down pouring.

Video 1: The rain quickly turned to hail which was hitting so hard I pulled into an apartment complex for cover.

Video 2: More hail. I have at least 2 friends whose car windows were shattered.

Picture 2: the ground looked like snow in some places. But after it passed, our apartment windows stayed open the whole day! And we may even have had hot drinks at Starbucks tonight. Crazy!
