September Recap and Welcoming October!

Happy October!!!! 

Here is a recap of what we did in September!
Chris had a birthday this month!! Here is my attempt at a Beautiful Pinterest inspired Birthday Cake.....Pinterest fail! Nonetheless the cake was still really good and Chris mostly cared about the thought of of a semi-homemade cake.

Chris chose Katie's Pizzeria for his birthday dinner.
It was seriously the most perfect night ever as far as weather goes. The pizza of course was also to die for. Please have Katie's Pizza before you die. You will thank me in heaven!

We took Charlie through the Loop for the first time. I have been taking him on longer walks and on different
routes so he can come out of his bubble. He still has a bit of puppy anxiety. So the Loop really put him on edge with the amount of chaos going on. He was a trooper though.

I finally had my very first adult party at my house. I have not had any kind of function at the house since moving in. First because the house was never presentable enough, second I have never thrown a party or hosted anything before on my own. lastly, the house was never presentable enough. So something possessed me to host Chris's birthday party at our house on Sunday. If you really want something to motivate you to get things done, schedule a party at your house with a 3 day window to get your crap together. I accomplished more in 3 days than I would have in a month and only because I was motivated. I painted a chalk wall in the nook. I finished painting the kitchen cabinets.I scrubbed the house from top to bottom and even washed the windows. Unfortunately I did not take any birthday pictures, but I did take pictures of some of my new Pumpkin decorations. I even received a pretty centerpiece from Chris's sister.

To kick off the beginning of October we went to a Sigur Ros concert last night. If you do not know who they are I suggest you Spotify them NOW!!! The venue was so fitting for them too since it was at the beautiful Fox Theater. I swear it was like heaven. Here are a few pictures from last night.

Best concert of 2013 so far!
