What a Weekend!

This weekend I didn't technically finish any new goals, but I don't want to get out of the swing of blogging! This was a perfect fall weekend! The weather was great and Jeff and I had nothing to do but enjoy it!


On Saturday, we went to Naper Settlement for the Naperville Wine Festival. They had over 250 wines available to taste and some little food samples. Servers were generous about letting us taste without taking a ticket, but they only gave us a one ounce sip. By the end we couldn't wait for a real pour!





So..... we headed down the street to Meson Sebika. I always forget about this great spot. We sat outside and had a real glass of wine (or 2!) and some hot tapas. It was a great day and evening!










We woke up feeling great on Sunday and got all of our chores (laundry & grocery store) done before heading to church. That was a first! Then we went to Cantigny Park in Wheaton and had a picnic under the beautiful trees.



Afterwards we went home to watch the Bears play the Steelers. It was a great game and I'm actually really understanding football for the first time in my life! A little eye candy doesn't hurt! I heart Greg Olsen! :)

  2. I guess this is one of those compromises we heard so much about before we got married.. If I want to watch football on Sundays, I guess I have to come to terms with my wife oogling Greg Olsen, and any other big, strapping player she happens to have a crush on that day. And I'm OK with that.

    Now.. who wants to sign my petition stating that all NFL cameramen need to spend a minimum of 30 minutes per game, focused on the cheerleaders? All in favor, say Aye-yi-YI! :))
