[WWI museum and memorial – highly recommend and beautiful views of the city]
[The National at Starlight Theatre – amazing show and we were so close to the stage!!
It did rain the entire show, but we made the best of it!]
[and THEN – Matt Berninger, lead singer of husband’s all-time FAVORITE band, came into the audience RIGHT NEXT TO US and husband sang into the mic with him. You have to trust me because I barely got a pic, but this “after” photo of husband is pretty telling. Life complete.]

My Weekend Was:
the opposite of last weekend
spending time with friends
a successful October girls happy hour
random, in a great way
finding a new nighttime hangout
celebrating our favorite brewery’s first birthday
touring Texans around Bentonville
eating lots and lots of tacos
beautiful
jumbling towers + blockus + more beer
excitement for a friend and her world tour
doing something for someone simply because it will make their day
relaxing on the couch with my old friends in the O.C.
