Friday I received a super fun package in the mail! As some of you may remember....Halloween is my favorite time of year! And I absolutely LOVE the monster cereals that come out at this time of the year! You know the ones....Boo Berry, Franken Berry, and Count Chocula???!!! I'm not a huge cereal eater but I always eat these! I know it has tons of sugar but it's an indulgence for me and that's ok because it's all about the balance right?
Well I was sent a package full of the monster cereal...as well as some other goodies (that my boys have promptly confiscated lol)!
In honor of the election year....the monsters need your vote to be elected as America's favorite cereal Monster! Count Chocula is currently in the lead...but the other monsters are trying their hardest to catch up! They need our help people! Any resident of the U.S. that is 13 years or older can cast their vote for their favorite monster at monstersvote2016.com for a chance to win sweet election prizes, including a chance at a $5000 grand prize! Voting ends on October 31st, 2016 and the winner will be announced on MY BIRTHDAY...November 1st, 2016! So go vote people!!! :-)
My favorite is....Boo Berry!!!!
Hayden loves Franken Berry and Sawyer loves Boo Berry!
After all the monster cereal craze died down, we went and got pizza for dinner. I had a 9 mile long run the next morning and needed my favorite fuel!
The next morning I had a great long run! I'll tell you all about it later this week!
For lunch that day we went and ate at Chicken Salad Chick. Then Andy left to head to Auburn with friends for the Auburn game. Sadly....our team lost. But Andy had a lot of fun and sent me a few pics and video during the game.
The boys and I went shopping at Target and to the grocery store. Then we met family and friends at Cracker Barrel to celebrate Sawyer's birthday (it was almost two weeks ago but this was the soonest the family could get together). We missed Andy but had a great dinner!
Then it was back home and time for Archie's nightly walk. It wasn't as fun walking him alone and without Andy. But we got it done!
Andy got home from the game super early Sunday morning. So Archie and I let him sleep of course. And Archie and I went for a run! He did so great! I just LOVE running with him!
Later that afternoon we went to our friends the Szymanski's house for dinner, swimming, and to watch Fear the Walking Dead! We had a great time! And it was so wonderful knowing we didn't have to go to work or school the next day! I'm already ready for next summer lol!
