Bring on Fall!

Tom and I welcomed in fall the best way we knew how this weekend! Relaxing of course. :)

We picked out the tile for our upstairs bathroom, put new blinds in the kitchen, went to another fun cooking class, picked a TON of peppers from the garden, and laid in the hammock.

The cooking class was put on by Cupini's - which is an Italian restaurant here in town. We made pasta from scratch - which consisted of rolling it out, and cutting it into little strands. Very fun, but a  lot of work. haha! We even got to take some home to cook and try on our own.

I love this time of year, and the weather that comes along with it! We hope to squeeze lots of fun activities into this fall including, but of course not limited to:

  • Chiefs game
  • K-State game
  • Plaza Art Fair
  • One last Royals game
  • Winterizing the garden and lawn 
  • Celebrating my (26th - ugh getting old!) birthday
  • Finishing the upstairs guest bathroom 
  • Signing up for another 5k 
  • Carving pumpkins 
  • Hosting our very first Thanksgiving as "The Sanfords" 
  • Enjoying Tom's Oktoberfest (a beer festival that he puts on with his friends!) 
  • Plan our next big vacation to... Costa Rica
  • Make a hot sauce with our delicious peppers
  • American Royal BBQ 
  • Florence and the Machine concert
