Chillaxing Weekend

This weekend was all about errands and not having much to do. It was great. I spent a lot of time with J-Bird and did a little running around. I did however cheat a tiny bit and I bought a very cute dress for my Atl trip in early December. I couldn't help myself, I saw it at Forever 21 and it just looks like a super expensive dress that will be amazing with tights and it was only 25 bucks. Other than that cheating, I am very proud of myself because I walked all through the mall and didn't get anything else, just window shopped! I even went in DSW and came out empty handed! Go me! Some Saturday lazy J pictures...

Chillin, it's his thing....

 Playing, it's his other thing...

 Happy Boy!

Sunday Jax and I went to the park on Perkins. It is just a pedestrian park so we just walked the path and mostly let J smell some new smells. He loved it, of course. :) Here are some pictures! 

He says "Come on! Let's go... I don't want to pose right now!"

 Smelling a tree aka guess what happens next.

 Deciding which way he wanted to go...

Maybe that way....

 Lake rest stop

 Handsome boy!

 Stopped to watch all of the kids skateboarding and riding bikes.

Ready for a long post? :)

So, I'm going to encompass my weekend along with my Monday post for the sake of efficiency. This weekend was the Kentucky game, which was at 11:20. I can't remember the last time we played that early and I hope we don't again any time soon! I did not anticipate traffic flow correctly and Amanda and I ended up parking at 11:05. Oops! We dressed casual for the game and the weather started very fall-like in the morning but warmed up quickly (hence my mistake wearing suede boots!!!) Oh well, what can you do?

 Can you see my cute Tiger-stripe cuff?

 Kickoff!

I ran errands Saturday afternoon, which was a nice change from the usual entire Saturday being taken up by football! Sunday, I took Jackson to the park I've mentioned before. What a nice place!! I was very pleasantly surprised and Jackson had a great time! Lots of walking paths and a small dog park. I'm really happy we went and we'll try to go as often as we can now. 

 Jackson and "Sprinkles" (no kidding) his new Schnauzer friend... notice J is doing his patented "leg kick"

 And this is J when we got back while I was doing laundry.....

 And J when I was putting the laundry away....

The rest of Sunday was spent napping and doing chores around the house. I got the pictures on the shoe boxes I missed during the big project and got a bunch of laundry done and put away. I also finally did some "craft-work" on a jacket I bought in August at Love Culture in the mall. It had an ugly fake hoodie sewn into the collar and I decided it would look much better without the hood... Red is so big for the fall and I like the look of a clean jacket and for 30 bucks, I wasn't going to let a stupid hood stand in my way!
With the stupid hoodie.... 

 And without... so much better :)

I'm loving that it is finally getting a little cooler so I can start wearing more jackets at work. Didn't plan one for today but will have at least 2 outfits this week with jackets I haven't worn yet. I decided to go for comfort on this Monday-day. This dress is comfy and cute! It looks like a crazy busy pattern in the first pictures, but you can see it's not all that loud in the closer-up picture. I have these earrings that ended up being perfect for this dress. Have had them for a while now and this is the first time I've worn them.

Dress: Bobbie Bee (???) From JC Penny...9.99 on sale
