Barker's and Beggar's



Nothing like a Monday morning to get an instant pep to your step.

Speaking of pep to your step, have you tried this pumpkin spice chai latte mix from Target yet? I picked it up over the weekend and I think I will have it four times a week now until the carton is gone. Good stuff right here.

This weekend had both good and bad parts. Let's talk about the good first.

On Friday, my parents gave us tickets to a jazz concert at the Southern Theatre that originally they were going to go to, but couldn't at the last minute so we went instead. Billy and I have never been to a jazz concert and weren't expecting much from it (if we're being honest here), but we were really surprised! It was a good time and our seats were literally almost on the stage. We had the best seats in the theatre, but we were definitely the youngest couple there by about 20-30 years, ha.

I took Rocky to a "Barker's and Beggar's" (dog trick-or-treating event) on Saturday morning that was put together by a dog shop downtown called Three Dog Bakery. I decided to dress him up as a lion because it was chilly out and it was the warmest costume of his (and the one that fits him the most) so it seemed like the best choice. Plus, he does look pretty precious in it, doesn't he?



As for the event, picture dogs walking around everywhere in the cutest Halloween costumes going in out and out shops looking for treats to add to their treat bag. Who wouldn't like this event? It was seriously so cute. I loved every minute of it and I know Rocky did too as he kept running from shop to shop so fast.





He came home with enough treats to last him a day or two (just kidding-much longer than that) and I may be biased but he was the most well behaved dog at this event. The shop owners just loved him and he was so polite letting all the other dogs get their treats before asking for his... ;)



{when we got in the car to leave he was asleep in less than a minute...little boy had so much fun!}

I wore this new Old Navy vest (more about this awesome buy later this week!), Lululemon leggings, my Hunter boots, and a Marley Lilly scarf. It was also OSU game day, so of course I had to support my team all day (Go Bucks!) 

Sunday we spent time with my parents and the weekend ended by watching of my favorite Halloween movies...Hocus Pocus. I'm not sure if that movie will ever get old. 

Now for the bad. Unfortunately, on Saturday afternoon I got word that my uncle (my Dad's brother) had passed away. He was diagnosed with kidney cancer about 8 months ago and it took a turn for the worst this past month. I plan to share more later this week, but I just wanted to mention it today and say thank you to those who left me kind message via social media yesterday about it. They are so appreciated!

What did you do this weekend?

Did you see Ohio State's win over Penn State? :)
