As for this past weekend, we FINALLY had some summer temps that made it necessary to spend as much time as we could near some kind of water.....and it was wonderful!
1. I got my weekend started right with a Bacon, Slaw, and Mustard Hot Dog from the street vendor outside my office building. I believe I have a new favorite way to top a hot dog!
2. A little bit of Friday night football action. Spring football practice came to an end on Friday night with a scrimmage game, which we won. =) It was just enough footballness to hold me over for a few more months until the real season starts! It also means I get my hubby back home for a few more week nights before summer practice starts.
3. Puppy walks happened several times this weekend. I have discovered that if I want a little down time without puppies jumping all over me the minute I sit down, a walk will do the trick....they sleep like babies when we get back home. With it getting warmer we are having to either go early (on the weekends) or wait until later on in the evenings. My lil Peanut does not like hot walks and has no problems plopping himself down in a shady spot when he thinks it's too warm.
4. We spent Saturday with some friends on the Alabama River. It was absolutely beautiful! There's nothing better than good company, good food, and boat rides. Truly summer at its finest!
5. Alabama River scenery.
6. The coolest lights I've seen in a while. They illuminated the entire shed, but didn't attract bugs because the light does not shine. I smell a project for Eric!
7. Pretty Sunday afternoon clouds.
8. Mint toes by the pool. I spent a majority of my Sunday afternoon in this spot reading Inferno (it's soooo good!).
9.-11. While Eric and I lounged poolside, the boys played. Hawk of course played fetch in the pool. It's his happy place. Peanut's favorite part of getting in the pool is getting dried off. He runs over to my when I get the towel ready to dry him off. We decided to make sure Hollow knew how to swim, which he can. Eric got in and took him out to the middle of the pool, and Hollow clung to him like the pool was hot lava. When he put him in the water Hollow took off toward the edge of the pool like he'd been shot out of a cannon and was very happy when I pulled him out. I am sure by the end of the season he figure out the coolest spot out there is the top step of the pool with Peanut.
I guess it's time to get back to the real world, Monday is calling. 5 days til the weekend....I think I can. I think I can. I think I can!
