And it finally feels like fall!

(Andy and i used the fireplace finally for the first time this year.)

This years holidays will be extra special for the both of us, because it'll be our

FIRST as a married couple (:

So many different things i want to do with my hubby this winter!

thinking of some really good traditions to start.

On thanksgiving we go to my Moms every year, and she decided that

we should all (the fam.) play a game of either basketball or football

at the park right around the corner from her house before all the festivities begin!

(Andy and I being the friends fiends that we are, chose football!)

So Andy is in charge of starting that off!

I really enjoy going up to apple hill to pick out pumpkins, and

drink hot apple cider, and eat delicious apple donuts!

&&This year we are also CUTTING our own tree down (:

possibly in Joe's backyard..but if not there is a fairly reasonable

tree lot in Slough house where they just give you a saw and let you go!

Hope everyone is excited for the holidays as we are!!

We'll take the Newlywed special...

Lately we have started a new tradition.

Wednesday night, date night.. with my mom and step dad!

& of course we chose BJ's to visit the

lovely bartender Joe.

(Andys best man, best friend)

So we get there this past wednesday around 6:30, our normal time

& my mom was already there, chatting with 3 older guys.

Now this comes to no surprise for me because she is very friendly..

So Andy and I take a seat next to her and introduce ourselves to them,

and they seemed like they have already had a couple cocktails since we have

been there.

SO then my mom goes on to telling them we are newlyweds.

ding, ding, ding

That indeed was the winning saying for the night!

Out of those 3 guys, they kept our drinks full throughout the entire night!

"buy the newlyweds another round!"

Andy was never without a cold beer in his hand &

We never pulled out our wallets once!

it was indeed an awesome experience.

Gotta love friendly, rich, drunk men (:
