Good evenin’ everyone Well, I found something to do with my wide-open Sunday…Ben and I went shopping!

I started with a cool beverage: a Lite Caramel Frappuccino from Starbucks. I figured since I ordered a lite that it wouldn’t come with whip cream, but it did – and I guess I didn’t mind too much The caramel drizzle was to die for too. Don’t worry, I licked the lid to make sure I got it all

Frappy makes me happy!

While shopping around a home store, I stumbled on Halloween decorations. Halloween decorations?! It’s August 2nd! Holiday prep starts earlier and earlier each year, doesn’t it?

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, so I actually got semi giddy to see all this cute stuff!

Do you deck your home out for the Holidays? I give my home a “fall” decorating theme starting in October, then move to “Christmasy” type stuff in December, then a “winter” theme after that – snowflakes, snowmen, etc. I don’t get too nutty, but it’s fun to have a little seasonal decor around!

And look at these Christmas tree ornaments! They’re marshmallow s’more men!

So adorable

We didn’t end up buying anything – which is good for the wallet, but had fun window shopping – which is good for the soul Oh, then we went to Costco and feasted on samples. That is good for the stomach!

For dinner tonight we headed down to Ben’s parents house for a grill out. On the menu:

• Fresh rolls
• Green beans
• Ribeye steaks
• Corn on the cob

Here’s Ben, our grill master!

Some delectable rib-eyes – tender and juicy as can be!

For dessert, we continued the Girl Scout ice cream cake tradition and had Thin Mint Ice Cream Cake. Omg…

This was JUST like eating Thin Mints out of the freezer – which is my FAVE way to eat them!

Alrighty everyone – I am stuffed, tired and getting up early in the morning to RUN. I have taken a week long hiatus from running and am more than ready hit the road. In fact, I can’t wait!

Oh also, tune in tomorrow morning, because I have a SU-PURE-B announcement to make! Have a great rest of your evening!
