Weekending: Winter Break is here!

We have reached winter break, can I get a hallelujah?

Unfortunately the weather wasn't cooperating and while we were supposed to travel to my in-laws on Friday after school, we had to wait until Saturday morning because the mountain pass was closed. It opened on Saturday, but the roads were super snowy and it was a terrifying drive. Thankfully we made it here safely.

I did some last minute shopping with my sister in law and picked up a few stocking stuffers for C. I am trying really hard to make our first married Christmas a memorable one and I think it's going to be great.

Today we are celebrating with his family and exchanging gifts. I love all of the things that we got them and I can't wait to see them open them all. It's been a relaxing few days here with his family, but I'm excited to go home to our apartment and enjoy the last day before Christmas! We have a full Christmas Eve and Christmas day, so I am excited for the festivities to begin!

Linking up with Meghan! 

weekending: rivarly football weekend.

This weekend was so jam packed but such a blast.Thanksgiving was great. We went to my fiance's sisters house and had a great dinner with all of his family. After dinner we went shopping and got some great deals (see my five on friday post).

We went to Pullman for our college football game and it was such a fun weekend. There were a lot of friends from college there and my college roommates and I all stayed at my brothers apartment in town so it was just like old times. We made 'family dinner' friday night before we went out and then a big breakfast the next morning.

 It snowed on Saturday morning and our friend invited us to tailgate with them before the game. Check out their set up, enclosed tents with two patio heaters inside...yes please!

We hadn't bought tickets to the game because I didn't want to pay $65 each when I knew we could watch it in the bar and be warm. Plus I was secretly hoping I could find tickets cheaper closer to the game or that we would know people who didn't want their tickets. Well we were chatting with people at the bar before the game and they were like, we don't wanna go, it's going to be too cold. So we got three FREE tickets and off to the game we went! I was one happy girl. 

Our stadium isn't huge so we were able to stand on the concourse and enjoy the game with this lovely view. 

 The game didn't go our way, but that's okay. We are used to it unfortunately. Everyone went back to the bar after the game and when we were walking home I thought it felt cold...yup.

The 5 hour drive home today was long, but it was so worth it. Another Apple Cup in the books. So thankful for a college that I love, the infectious spirit, and the best friends anyone could ask for. 

GO COUGS!
