It's football season!

Last weekend my husband talked me and my aunt into going to my first football game.  My uncle went too, but he doesn't have to be talked into it.

I have never been a fan of football, but some how V talked me into going.  I think he mostly wanted me to go so I could see the seats we missed out on this year when I told him no to getting season tickets. I have to say, after going, we DID miss out.  These were great seats.  

We had a blast. And like everything else in life, being there in person was amazing. I might actually be a football fan, as long as I get to go to the live game, get those seats, my aunt and uncle go, and it's warm! If it's below 70,it's a no go for this girl. 

Counter upgrade.

We knew from the start that we wanted to change out our counters.  The builders  only had two options; laminate or granite. The laminate counters came in hundreds of colors but they all reminded us of apartments and the granite came in three colors black, brown, or a mix; we didn't like any.  So we picked a builders basic laminate that we could live with until we could change it out. 

When we finally decided to upgrade we got a sorta renovators block.  We knew we wanted white-ish, but had no idea how many options there where. 

In the end, we decided we really liked this;

Mostly white with some gray. 

Darker than planned but we also think we want white subway tile... Because who doesn't these days. So the darker counter will give our small kitchen some depth. 

Ignore the food all over the counters, we made sloppy joes soon as we could use the kitchen again. 

Up next we hope to do the backsplash. Soon as we work up the courage to do it. It's a bit of a diy were afraid of.
