Quick Weekend Recap.


Keeping it short and sweet this Monday morning for a quick weekend recap.
 
Friday I didn't have to be to work until late, so Brady and I decided to test out his Halloween costume that came in the mail the day before. What do y'all think? :)
Rawr.
Saturday was an early morning of getting ready for our annual Dogtoberfest event at Freshfields! Swung by Dunkin Donuts to pick up donuts for the staff. Managed to keep myself from eating the entire 2 dozen, keeping myself to only one.
 
Set up from 9:30am-1pm and then the event was underway! There was a doggy costume contest, wine tasting, beer, vendors and raffles. All money raised will be split evenly and given to all of the dog rescues that participated! What a fun event!

A prisoner under maximum security and a cop. Too cute.
 
 
Sunday was a much needed low key day. I woke up and put this pot roast in the crockpot. It claims to be "Best Pot Roast Ever," but we were not convinced. Next time, I'll be trying Pioneer Woman's recipe. Did some laundry, then made Caroline's chocolate chip blondie recipe. After that, Brady and I went for a long walk with Emily and her pups. Perfect Sunday!

Busy Weekend!

I don't know how I stayed awake until 11pm last night, given the weekend I had. It was just non-stop.

Friday night I had an event for work, which Fat Hen catered. Their food is not only amazing but their staff works extra hard to make sure the event (and clean up!) goes smoothly.  Highly recommend.

Saturday was DOGTOBERFEST! Got there bright and early at 9am to start setting up, left at  6pm. While it was a long day on my feet, the turn out was AWESOME! Special thanks to Emily (and Bennett), Caroline (and Birdie), Elizabeth (and Annabelle) and Jessica (and Hudson), who came out to the event!





Right after Dogtoberfest, Cameron and I drove to Summerville to eat dinner at my parents house. They treated us to some yummy steaks, asparagus, baked sweet potatoes and everything bread. After dinner we sat out on the back porch, watched the rest of the Wisconsin / Michigan State game, and Cameron and my dad smoked cigars that Cameron bought on our cruise.

It was COLD!
 

Sunday turned out to be a beautiful day and Cameron was determined to get some yard work done. We layed new pine straw, mowed the lawn, pulled weeds, and cleaned out the fire pit! May not sound that tough, but I am sore today! Made some AMAZING chicken enchilada soup that will be on tomorrow's Tasty Tuesday post!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
