A good WI-kend.

We had a wonderful and relaxing weekend. It's finally fall, my favorite season, and it feels like it, too...yay for sweater weather and boots! It's funny to me how tired I get of wearing boots into springtime, but how exciting it is to dig them out again once it starts getting cooler.


Andrew and I both had free time this weekend...and even if we (read, Andrew) actually didn't, we made time for it. This was one of the first instances that we haven't had to go anywhere on a weekend off; during the summer, free weekends weren't actually free but were saved for wedding activities or family events back home. Of course, this isn't to say that we didn't love going home on the weekends when we could, but it was a nice change of pace to spend some time on the WI side of the border.

So what did we do with all our free time? Friday we had friends over for dinner, Saturday we made pasta (stay tuned for an In the Kitchen post in the next few days!), and Sunday we went to Madison to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was a lovely weekend.

In fact, we've got a few lovely weekends on the horizon! My mom comes to visit a week from today (WOOHOO!) then we have a wedding in Iowa, then my sister comes the following weekend! AND, the fact that wedding photos are coming in is the cherry in top of an already pretty great start to fall. Seriously. I could look at our wedding photos all day, on repeat...more of that later this week!
