Avoiding the heat

I left the house once today, that's right once! Today was the first Saturday, in a long long while, or maybe ever, that I didn't really leave my house. And let me tell you, it's been really nice.

Today was also the last day the temperature will be in the 100+, hopefully until next year anyway. I unintentionally did a fabulous job at avoiding that nastiness.

We sat around most of the day waiting for the Dish Network guy to show up, and that basically sums up our day. Followed by watching lots of football. Way to take the win Cougs!

While we waited to enter the 21st century, I kept myself busy turning these:

And because sometimes you just need chocolate cake on a Saturday, I made this:


Clearly our day has been productive.

P.S. Tomorrow is the last day of the 21 challenge, have you been following?

Erin and I attempted to make throw pillows once. Yours are cuter. But ours were made out of boat fabric.
