Hey everyone! Hope you are all having a wonderful labor day! Today I’m linking (although very late) with Meg for Mingle Monday 🙂

Today’s question asked what we were up to this Labor Day. So here goes!

This labor day weekend has been a pretty busy one for us. It started with us frantically cleaning house, knowing we were having guests over. Y’all, please tell me we aren’t the only ones that do that. We try to keep a clean apartment, but as the week goes by (and the more tired we are) the worse it gets. Then Saturday rolls around, we clean, and the cycle repets itself haha. I digress. Anyway, so our friends Jacob and Lauren came over and we went out to Chuy’s for our friend Adam’s birthday.

Chuy’s was great and it was nice to get a chance to hang out with our friends and have a night out. It’s kind of rare that we do dinner out with friends, so I was really happy. The food was great, and so was the company. We also hit up Austin’s apartment afterward and you guys- she totally has a blanket and pillow fort in her living room complete with twinkle lights. Um, I MUST do this. I also. Hacked out some awesome fashion binders she’s created with lots of pictures that she has cut out from magazines.  Austin is actually thinking about starting a fashion blog, and I hope she does!

Sunday was nice and we spent the day at the pool and barbecued some burgers. We never used the grill by the pool befor and I’m impressed! Although, I’m really bad at forgetting stuff, so we didn’t have grill tools (so we used silicone tipped tongs and a bench scraper lol) and I didn’t buy plates (we used chargers instead lol), and then we forgot cups and a bottle opener for our drinks. I really need to think things through a little better. Sometimes I can be potty scatterbrained. The pool was perfect though and completely empty (which at our apartment is rare).

the pool all to ourselves! 



Jacob, Adam, and Mathew. Goobers for life

As for today, Lauren and Jacob left this afternoon so after they left Mathew and I decided to run some errands and get supplies for my Etsy endeavor. Oh- you didn’t know I had an Etsy shop? Yep- well, I’m about to. I’m getting my shop all ready (I won’t tell you all what it’ll have just yet. Those of you who know- don’t spill the beans please!) and will let you all know when it’ll be ready! I promise you all won’t wanna miss out! It’s perfect for yourself or as a gift for others!
