Fall Events

We have finally picked up the pace a bit and gotten away from ESPN. Now it seems like we are going nonstop.
This past weekend we were very excited to find a patio set on sale. All of our family is coming in for Christmas so we thought it would be nice to have a table and chairs so we can relax outside while grilling. It won't be long until everyone is here (less than a month.)
This Saturday we are hosting a football party. Ohio State vs. Michigan. We have gone so far as to buy jerseys of our favorite teams (me OSU of course and Gil has a Miami Hurricanes jersey.) Unfortunately the game is airing here at 7am but it hasn't deterred anyone from coming which is exciting. Instead of the traditional homemade Terry tacos we will be doing brunch instead and saving the tacos for the afternoon game. We are very excited to have everyone over and watch OSU slaughter Michigan. We do have one Michigan fan coming so it should be interesting!
Lastly, we had an amazing dinner with a college friend of Gil's this past week. Brent who was one of Gil's friends/suit mates freshman year of college lives here and his family invited us out to dinner to celebrate Gil's safe arrival home. We went to Ocean House at the Outrigger Hotel. We had amazing food and great conversation. The restaurant found out we were celebrating and gave us the royal treatment. The manager made sure we were treated well and they were so thankful to Gil for his service. It is nice to know what he does is appreciated. Thank you again to the Kakesako's for a great dinner.

Next up...Football Party!
