Five Friday Facts

Five Friday Facts

September 27, 2013

1. Today’s Shane and my 5th wedding anniversary!!!

image

Mushy gushy alert: He’s my best friend, my partner, and makes me swoon (nearly) every day Red heart I can’t imagine life without him! We were planning on heading down to Durango to go camping and hike along the Colorado Trail, but with what happened with Niko this week, we’re just going to stay home with the pup. It’s fine though – having her back with us is the best gift ever!!

2. I haven’t talked at all about when my friends visited me last week!

It was such a blast, and it was just like old times. We talked a lot, drank and ate a lot, laughed a lot, and cried a lot.

The fanny pack dance pretty much sums it all up:

3. These.

Destiny grabbed a bag at Target while she was here, and left the remainder in my freezer. I’m slowly chipping away at the rest of the bag. They’re delicious! They’ve got a pumpkin coating and a chocolate center. Still doesn’t beat my beloved peanut butter m&m’s, but they’re up there!

4. And speaking of fall-stuff, I am absolutely LOVING the weather here in Colorado this week. Cool, crisp mornings, sunny, warm days, and cool nights.

The mountains are on fire. I wish it could stay like this forever!

5. Truth.

image

Cheesecake is probably my all time favorite dessert. So when I saw Whole Foods had their cheesecake, which they call “Best Ever Cheesecake” on sale, I had to try it. It rivals the Cheesecake Factory’s Original flavor, and that’s saying something!

Yum.

5.1 Bonus! This butt.

I was over at Lauren’s yesterday, and caught Lance sitting at the door in the position. I just had to.

Have you had anything pumpkin-flavored yet this year?

    I LOVE the candy corn M&M’s. Of course nothing could ever touch the peanut butter ones but Lord I am in love with these little bites of heaven!

    Happy anniversary! I have to admit, when it comes to M&Ms the pretzel ones are my favourite…the peanut butter ones are a close second though 😉

    Happy Anniversary to you and Shane! Hope you have a great weekend celebrating!

    I’ve been seeing those Pumpkin Spice M&Ms everywhere! Apparently I need to try them out for myself. I haven’t had much pumpkin stuff lately, but I’ve been itching to make some pumpkin bread.

    Happy Anniversary! I too bought those m&ms at Target – I’m not a huge pumpkin fan ((I know…what’s wrong with me?!)) – but I thought they were OK….but the PB ones are my ALL TIME FAV! And that doggy is too cute…my parents have a Golden and she lays like that all the time!
    I’m new to your blog and I’m so glad I found it – can’t wait to snoop around 🙂

    1. Happy Anniversary!
    2. Pure awesomeness.
    5. I may need to go there just for that (we don’t shop there).

    And 5.1 – LOVE it! Our cats will sometimes sit like that with their back legs straight out (instead of to the sides like that) and we call it their “seal butt”.
