Snow Day!

You can see the Budweiser plant in the background of this picture.

Sugar and I have spent the day playing in the first big snow that we've gotten since we moved here!  I even went outside to take pictures of Tony cleaning off the car this morning.  He insisted that I use an umbrella to protect our camera.  Apparently, our neighbors thought that this was hilarious so they sat in their window and took pictures of me holding an umbrella while taking pictures of Tony clearing off the car!

It's a SLU Blue Christmas!

Getting Ready!

With Christmas just around the corner, SLU has started to put up their holiday decorations!  Too bad we aren't still seeing the gorgeous weather that we were having last week when I took this.  Unfortunately, it's been cold and rainy for the past 3 days!  I can't wait to see what all SLU does for Christmas and I will definitely be posting pictures!

It's Christmastime!

No wait, it's not even Thanksgiving!  Oh well.  Tony and I found a new little gift shop this past weekend called Enchanted Embellishments.  This place is like sensory overload!  The guy who owns it absolutely loves the big, elaborate Christmas window displays in New York and decided that he could have them in his shop has well.  He does all of the  decorating himself and honestly, it's gorgeous.  Tony was impressed because they had free food and drinks while you shopped!  Aunt Nell, we bought a present  for you here!  :)

Halloween for the Dogs

Sugar had a great time at the annual PetsMart Halloween Party.  They got to take pictures in front of a Halloween backdrop and walk in a Halloween costume parade around the store.  It was so cute!  They even had a costume contest where the winners won PetsMart gift cards.  Sugar was most impressed by the goodie bag that they received just for showing up.  It was filled with all sorts of new treats!

The Michael Jackson dog definitely stole the show!  Notice the sequined glove!  He had lost one by the time that we got to take a picture.  Too bad that he showed up after the judging because he would've easily won 1st!

OktoberFest - My first and last one

So, Tony convinced me after an LSU game at like 10:30 p.m. to join him at OktoberFest a few blocks away from our house.  It was very cold and had been raining all day, so it was extremely muddy!  Anyway, I can now say that I've been to OktoberFest and have absolutely no desire to return!  As you can tell, Tony plans to spend all day there next year.

Scary, Squishy Billikens!

We recently had the artwork in our hall replaced with large photos that would appeal to prospective students.  It looks absolutely amazing!  However, a few people in our office are a little afraid of this picture because they think that the little Billikens look like little demons!
