Couscous, new gym and cute dogs

It’s the weekend!!  And just think … next weekend will be Christmas : )

We had our holiday party at work today and here was my food contribution … The couscous salad turned out great! (At least I sure loved it : )  Most of my coworkers didn’t have a clue what couscous was so I think it scared them away a little, ha!

New Gym

As you may have noticed, I didn’t post yesterday and part of the reason was because of a basement reno we’re Erik is currently working on. (I only helped carry stuff ; )

We’re converting the unfinished side of our basement into our official gym. Until now, our workout equipment has been scattered between two rooms and I have often referred to unfinished part as “the dungeon”.

Well, just so you can get an idea of what I mean by dungeon … here is the BEFORE picture:

Pretty bad, no? This picture was taken when we first moved in and it was a mess because we were my dad was tiling the other room in the basement for us.

It’s allllmost ready for the AFTER picture but not just yet.  Until then … here is a teaser of the BEFORE and AFTER floor ; )  

Dogs

I finally got some good pictures of Rocky, haha.  When we’re sitting and/or laying on the couch (which is right in front of the staircase leading to upstairs), a lot of times she goes and sticks her head through the rail when she wants to play and I caught her in the act last night.

Rocky is our loyal dog. Everywhere we go, she goes … no matter what. If you go in a room and shut the door, you can bank on the fact that she’ll be right outside of it when you come out.

And here’s Bubba being cute. He was begging for more attention by putting his chin on Erik’s lap.  Who can resist that???

Not me!

Have a fabulous weekend!! : )  I might be back tomorrow but if not, see you Sunday night!
