Let me tell you, now that the weather's getting warmer, Bill is itchy to get outside and work. Goodness gracious. But, the one benefit to that is: our house is coming together even more. The downside? Sunburn. Mostly on Bill. Can some send over some super-high SPF this way?
{Friday.} I made Bill a post-it heart with cute quotes and such to come home after work. And Bill got me a car! ;)
After dinner, our friend Christine came over and we went to Scoopy's Too down the street to sample the goods. I have to say, I was pretty impressed. Sweet and Salty Caramel Pretzel ice cream is to die for. My favourite Klondike bar is Caramel Pretzel; this was just easier to eat! Afterwards, we came back to the house and Bill and Chrissy played Diablo III while I did some blog research.
{Saturday} kicked off with getting a few things done around the house, and then we went to visit my mom for a little bit. We had beautiful sun to look at while we fueled up the car. By the way, that mixed berry cream cheese I mentioned the other day? That is it. It's a light purple colour. Made my blueberry bagel OH. SO. GOOD.
Once at my mom's, she showed Bill and I this really old charcoal drawing of her and her two brothers, which was taken from three different school pictures. My mom hasn't changed much at all...
We left a little earlier than we usually do—in order to avoid Saturday rush hour—so we could get some work done outside the house. Bill was sawing up some old wood to put out on the trash, so I made him some coffee while he worked really hard. I just held the trash bags ;) And of course, King Nibbler sits in the house majestically waiting to be pet.
This weekend also included lots of trips to Walmart and Lowe's.
{Sunday}
Before going out to lunch at a new place, I show off my Marine Corps pride!
Before doing our grocery/home improvement shopping, Bill took me out to lunch! Instead of getting just fast food, we went to this little restaurant in town that I've been dying to try called the Woodbury Train Station Cafe. I got a grilled chicken sandwich with provolone and roasted red peppers. SO GOOD~ Bill got chicken fingers.
Bill will be so mad at me for posting his derp face, but I thought it was so cute :3
The Woodbury Train Station Cafe also has beignets, which are similar to funnel cake. They offer them for free during breakfast, as well as on Sundays. So good.
After much laborious work in the back yard, mostly on Bill's behalf (admittedly), our back yard looks awesome! We finally got it looking nice. Bill edged, weeded, and raked the stones where the fire pit is, as well as put together the fire pit. We also pulled out the tables and chairs and got them all set up, too! Doesn't it look awesome?
I picked some daffodils and forsythia to put on our table to make it look nice, and put them in my hurricane glass from the Hard Rock Cafe, since I don't use it very often, nor do I have a vase. I think it worked out great!
And that was our crazy weekend! Lots of time outside, with much more to come now that it's getting warmer. Seriously, though. Someone, please, send over some 80SPF, hahah!
