Friday was exciting in that it was "family day" Just Matt and me. Perfect bliss. We drove to Portage, looked around the little quaint town, stopped at Best Buy, picked up Pocahantas (crossed it off my Disney list!), made dinner together, then fell asleep on the couch while cuddling and watching one of my Disney favorites.
Saturday was the first day that we TOGETHER went out on the boat(s) this year. Finally the winter is over. The sunshine is here. And the boats are in.
Our boat = Baby Boat - was already docked on the pier in front of Grandma's house off Rock River (Matt and Tom did that last weekend - See previous post). I watched as Matt and Tom worked diligently in getting Papa Boat in the water - so it could sit on the pier next to Baby Boat for the remainder of the Summer.
After - we went out on the lake with Matt's parents, aunt, and uncle - took some super duper fast turns, drank a few Angry Orchard ciders, and visited with family.
Another amazing day.
So peaceful.
Saturday night - we came home, quickly changed, and stuffed our faces with leftovers before a group of friends came over for "Poker Night"
I don't play poker. But I do drink.
And goodness, was it fun! Great Wine. Great Friends. Great conversation.
In fact - we caught ourselves sitting on living room floor at 3 AM with our friends having a very in depth conversation about our faith and God's plan for us.......... All after brandy, wine, beer, poker, and smoking our tobacco pipe.
Um.
Today - I sit here in on my back porch (on this gorgeous day with an absolute perfect breeze) after watering my flowers -- and now writing to you. My beloved blog readers.
My parents should be here any minute to visit. Yippee!!
Friends. Family. Husband.
How did I get so lucky?
Isn't he beautiful?
Another Bonus:
Grandma Holtz gave us a stack full of books older than Matt and I combined. Much of which - are on our book collection list. THANKS GRANDMA!
