We're convinced this shot won him the spot..

Ricko Sauve!

Tuesday date night...

At the Sens Game...

Wouldn't have it any other way.. : )

An open letter…

Night Rider..

You, were supposed to be reliable. You were supposed to suck it up and last for at least another year. You better have a good explanation as to why you choose this moment to quit on us.

Yes, you quit on us.. We didn't quit on you. We may not have been the best of owners in the year that you've been with us.. But you could have given us some warning signs that the honeymoon was over.

Well my friend, the joke is on you. We found another match for us. You are nothing compared to this one. It outshines you %100 and more…You are dead to us. So pack up your trunk, and leave my driveway for good. Just leave and don't look back. You are not welcome here anymore.

Good riddance,
Dom and the clan.


P.s. new car comes tomorrow.. PUMPED!!

How to Cheer me up...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.. I am a huge fan of Starbucks and their over priced drinks. I love how their cups of coffee (and staff) can turn any crap day into a perfect one.. Even if it's just for 5 minutes. The Red Holiday cups are finally out at Starbucks.. usually means the holidays are right around the corner (wither you want them to be or not).

p.s. this is a Peppermint Hot Chocolate... I suggest you pick one up when you have the chance... mmmmmmmm

They've also got their usual holiday inspiration quotes..

Soooo true right??

pp.s All my holiday decor boxes are ready to go, and I'm going to start decorating next weekend (you think I'm kidding?! Don't you!!) <- more to come on that later..

Carved..

I'm not gonna lie.. this year's "trick-or-treating" on Sunny B drive was a huge dud. Seriously, had less than 20 kids pop by the house.. 20 kids?!?! Back when I was growing up, we had 50 kids come every half hour!! Well.. with everybody getting sick these days, it's not surprising.. but you know.. I can only eat so much left over candy.. right??

About a week ago, friends of ours dropped off a little "get well soon" pumpkin at the house. (did I mention we LOVE these friends? lol) So they told us we better get our A Game on this year because the competition was going to get blown out of the water... they weren't kidding...

Our friends posted photos of their triumph...

kinda had to up our game on this one...

I started carving Halloween day at noon...

finished at about 3-4pm...

pretty proud of myself for winging Martha's design... it turned out pretty neat...

A for effort 0n our part... they took the cake.. honestly.. where do our friends dream these things up??

p.s. Introducing.. Crocodile Rufus...
