On Saturday our plans got pushed back because of rain...go figure. I did however finally cave and go to the gym with Kyle so he could teach me how to properly lift (I'm not a fan of weights) and let me tell you parts of my body hurt that I never thought possible lol.
We made the most of the rainy day by picking up some amazing cajun sausage and grilling. Apparently rain does not stop him from grilling haha.
Sunday morning it was overcast but not raining so we headed off to Toledo Bend to check out the recreation sites and the cabins. It was gorgeous! We can't wait for better weather so we can fish and kayak.
Our next stop was Vernon Lake, this place is only 25 minutes from our house and it was amazing. They had a sand volleyball court, fishing and boating. I can tell we will be spending a lot of time at both of these places this summer.
We ended the day with a long walk for Emma and lounging around the house.
It was an awesome weekend and I'm looking forward to my last week of my current classes. Only 4 classes away from graduation!
I hope you all had an awesome weekend!
I was not a fan of lifting either, until I learned to do it properly. Now I love it! Glad you had a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had time together this weekend. Sometimes I love those rainy weekends. That cajun sausage sound delicious!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great weekend, I feel like I haven't seen Kyle much so it was great. :)
DeleteLooks like a lovely weekend, lady, despite the weather. Glad you got to the gym, you go girl. Jealous of your kayaking, I so want to have a place to kayak. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteI keep saying I want to lift (a little) because my best friend did and it changed her whole body, after losing 70lbs, which is awesome! But it terrifies me at the same time, lol! Is your gril a charcoal/gas combo?
ReplyDeleteOoh, love that you found some go to places for the summer! WIN!
ReplyDeleteYay!!! I'm so glad you got a weekend together! That's so important!!! <3
ReplyDeleteY'all look so cute!!! Glad you had a great weekend with your love.
ReplyDeleteyou need to try some smoked boudin from the cajun market near us. It is fabulous when grilled. Those are two very beautiful places. We haven't spent as much time there I would have liked but we did enjoy the times we went. I love those kinds of weekends, some activity some lounging. Always a good time.
ReplyDeleteWe did go to that market near you!! We loved it! We will definitely be going back to get some more deliciousness.
DeleteI am glad you were able to have fun despite the weather. It rains every time I plan to grill.
ReplyDeleteMy husband keeps trying to teach me to lift weights, but I'm not sure it's for me!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed it but not sure how often I will do it.
DeleteAwww glad you two had some nice time together :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was really nice. :)
DeleteI'm excited for you and Kyle getting to enjoy your summer in such a beautiful area! Boating and fishing sounds wonderful! And good for you that you didn't let rain completely destroy your plans! Enjoy your week, and all the best for your new classes!
ReplyDeleteThanks friend! :) A little rain can't stop us. ;)
DeleteAww sounds like a good weekend! good for you guys :)
ReplyDeleteMy husband bought a free weight set and it lives in our garage, he keeps wanting me to go lift with him but I hate it. LOL
ReplyDeleteSounds like an awesome weekend even though it wasn't quite like you planned!
ReplyDelete4 classes from graduation?! That is AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteYou are just flying along with your classes!! Woot! :) I'm glad you had a fun weekend despite the rain. And aww to little Emma. :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so fun to be able to count on one hand the number of classes you have left? Glad the rain didn't mess up your plans too much this weekend.
ReplyDeletefour classes! whoo!!!
ReplyDeleteSpending a weekend with your husband? What a crazy idea, haha. Glad y'all had a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteOh yay almost at graduation!!
ReplyDeleteVernon Lake - I did a beauty pageant around that area years ago! Memoriessssss....of being younger. And thinner. And less wrinkly!
Time with the spouse sure is a novelty.
