Our weekend was pretty rad and consisted mostly of eating, being outside, and playing, in the form of birthday parties and family trips to the park. We stayed local, and I laughed over and over at all the people desperately trying to get over the mountains {yucky traffic!!}. It’s weekends like these that I’m reminded just how lucky we are in our little corner of the world. It sure is beautiful. The picture above is from our hike at St. Edwards State Park. Being in the woods was just what I really really needed. This should be a weekly thing….seriously.
Of this entire amazing play structure at the park, Sky’s favorite thing was the steering wheel. It kept him so well entertained we sat there discussing how we could install one on our deck.
On Sunday, my mama and I celebrated “Mother’s Day” by going shopping and dining at Purple Café for dinner, one of my favorite places to eat. For dessert we had this crazy smores ice cream sandwich. DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW GOOD IT WAS.
Yet another food highlight was Sky’s inaugural trip to The Ranch, a drive-in burger stop that Josh has been frequenting since he was a wee tot, and a place that we always land when we are craving the best burger. When we walked in the door, who did we see? Josh’s parents {Sky’s nana and papa!} just getting in line to order. It was a complete coincidence so we all got to eat together and we even scored a few extra hours of babysitting so Josh and I could hang out minus the kidlet. It was a pretty sweet day….and a really great weekend.
Now? It’s time to get back to reality. I’ve got a full 3 days of work ahead and then Friday I’m off to Portland for the Pacific Northwest blog meet up with some of my favorite people! I can’t wait for girl time! Hope you all had a wonderful, relaxing, amazing weekend!
