Thanksgiving, by the numbers:

So, one of my goals over my 5, yes 5, day Thanksgiving weekend was to update this blog!!! I have been such a slacker, but things in the Nack world are just completely crazy right now. So, I have promised myself that December will be different, and here I am, starting out:

A Nack Thanksgiving, by the numbers:

Days off: Steph 5/Sean 4
Books read cover to cover: 2/1
Team Nackalista visits: 2
Delicious dinners at the best BBQ place in town: 1
Football games watched: 6+ (I've really lost track)
Pieces of plastic fruit the cat stole out of the centerpiece and used as a soccer ball: 5
Trips to Old Navy: 3
Trips to gun stores: 2
Hours that we didn't have to do anything remotely responsible: not nearly enough, but it was great while it lasted!


Happy beginning to the holiday season!!!

Weekend Goodness

This visit actually happened a week and a half ago, but I've been busy and am just now getting around to posting. Our super fancy friends the Kalista's came up from Medford to hang out, see a play, and plan our Boston/NYC trip we're taking this fall :) Yay!! We love Grandy (yep, Grace + Randy... they're THAT fancy. Hollywood fancy.) and we always have a rockin good time.


Our evening started out with the play, Around the World in Eighty Days, starring Sean's friend Steve-o. It was at the UO, and it was fabulous! Then off to Bel Ami for drinks and dessert, and home to indulge in this:

This. Game. Is. Awesome. Loved it! It's all about strategy and building cities and gaining land, and we played until 3 in the morning. I'm jealous that they get to own it. Good thing we know them!

The next day we headed to The Vintage for some delicious crepes. Their variety of crepes is REALLY impressive, and they're huge.

I like how they write the name of your crepe in sour cream on the top :)

Unfortunately, our good times breakfast resulted in this:
Behold, Grace and her very first parking ticket. Oops. not sure how 4 of us missed that meter, but we felt really bad. Sorry Grace.

Frowns turned to smiles though as Grace and I began planning!!!!!!!! We're both huge planners and a week's worth of vacation gives plenty to plan about! We set up the laptops, got out our spreadsheets, and away we went!!

it's not the most flattering of pictures.... :)

Schedules were made, rooms were booked, prices were checked, and our trip is going to be AWESOME. Sadly, they had to leave shortly after we were done, but we had a great weekend and can't wait till we see them again in April, if not before!

We love you guys!
