A Weekend at Home

 

 

This weekend is the first weekend David and I have been at home in a month.

We had 3 out of town wedding in a row.

It was fun, and exhausting.

And amazing to be home and have zero plans.

 

Friday night we stayed home and I cooked dinner!

Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, green beans, biscuits, and gravy.

It was so bad, yet so good.

 

Saturday David worked, and I spent some much needed time with Cade and my mom.

We ran some errands to Home Depot, and Target.

He had to pick out a CARS toy. Of course.

He loved driving the race car around Home Depot.

He is just the cutest.

 

That night David and I went out with my parents.

We went to Chuys and I got no pictures.

After dinner David and I picked up some wine and made our first fire in our house!

 

It is safe to say this will be happening all winter.

 

Today we just relaxed at home and it was wonderful.

This afternoon we got a couples massage and got sushi.

Best date ever.

My handsome date.

Annddd dinner.

Why is sushi so good?

We tried a new place tonight and it was awesome.

 

I hope you all had a great weekend.

I am done being the worst blogger ever:)



Life lately via pictures

 

Hello!

Not a lot has been going on around here lately!

This weekend David and I had a perfectly LAZY weekend.

Much needed, in my opinion.

Since I have taken quite the blog break, a picture update is in order.

 

New boots my love got me for my birthday which was last Friday.

I am now 25. Eeeek.

May purchase boots here.

I love the red zipper!

 

 Fresh cut watermelon.

 

 My wonderful husband sent flowers,a teddy bear and balloon to me at work on my birthday.

He is the best.

 

 We are....special.

 

 I got a breakfast cookbook for my birthday with tons of good recipes.

I love making new and different things.

We made these potato rosemary pancakes with bacon and honey.

So good!

The book is called The Perfect Start to Your Day.

This was our final product.

 

My handsome husband.

Sunday night dinner.

Be jealous.

Me and my little love bug!!

 

Well that is all for now folks.

Bought a new washer and dryer.
Babysat baby Cade.
Had at home date night.
And much more.

Me and David, out to dinner with his brother.

 My painting from our painting and wine night.
Such a fun girls night idea!

 This happened.
If you are a pickle lover, go get it.

 My newest pinterest find.
Must recreate. I just don't know where yet.

These are like candy.
I need to buy more.

Hanging out with Mr. Cool with his mohawk,

 Hanging out in Baton Rouge.

Froyo date after washer/dryer shopping:)

 Snuck a picture of the boys hanging out outside.
How cute are they?

 Fajita night at home on a Saturday!

With delicious margaritas, of course.

Whew. Picture overload.

I hope everyone else is having a great summer.

Am I the only one that is ready for it to be over?

If you are in Texas I am sure you agree.

Bring on the fall!

Instagram weekend of fun!

Well, we had a great weekend!

Two of my very best friends were in town from Austin.

So, on Friday we met up with them and another one of my very best friends.

Such a good time. And, of course, I took no pictures.

David and I had a glass bottle of wine with our dinner Friday,

which was a great pinterest find.

Recipe to come tomorrow.

 My new favorite wine.

Discovered thanks to a random purchase with the husband.

Me and David before going out Friday.

We had such a good time with our friends.

We are planning on making a trip to Austin soon!

Saturday I kept Cade and he stayed the night with Aunt sissy and Uncle Dave.

We had such a good time with him.

We went swimming, went for a walk in the stroller, played in the hose, and watched Cars.

Just a little bedtime snack. I think swimming made him hungry.

Playing in the backyard with the hose!

Redneck swimming pool anyone?

Playing with chalk.

Cade+Aunt Sissy= Love Forever.

He wrote it himself.

Tonight I am making chicken noodle soup.

For some reason making soup is my Sunday tradition.

I made enough for about 3 armys.

I also made the best banana bread recipe I have ever tried.

It is soo good.

It is such an easy recipe.

And it makes David love me.

Maybe I should post two recipes tomorrow?

Weekend with the nephew

Well we had a little change of plans this weekend,

and did not go on our road trip.

Something came up in my family, 

so I stayed in town to help take care of my nephew.

We made the best of our weekend home and

I always love spending time with the baboo.

Get ready for Cade overload.

Friday afternoon was spent playing outside.

A boy and his car.

Then we discovered the water hose.

Insert nap time.

He did NOT want to wake up!

That night we headed to dinner with Nana and Papa.

After dinner with Uncle Dave!

Saturday we just played and ran some errands!

Cade and Aunt Sissy.

He loved the fishy!

Then we chilled out and watched his favorite movie...CARS!

So glad I got to spend time with him and my family all weekend!

Hopefully we will do a make up trip to LA very soon.

It's ok...

Whew, happy Thursday party people.

Time to link up!

It's ok that it is 9:30 and I am finally sitting down. And blogging.

Even though I STILL have to pack for our road trip this weekend.

And be awake at 5 am. I'll be needing this.

It's ok that I bought "4th of July" outfits for me and the husband.

I tweeted about it earlier. And I have no shame.

They aren't ridiculously cheesy, just a subtle patriotic look.

At least that is what I am telling myself

It's ok that im ready for winter. Right?

It is over 100 everyday now and I just can't handle the heat.

It's ok that I went to visit my baboo instead of other "important" things.

I mean who can resist??

I love him!
