Weekend Wonders

Hope you all had a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend as I did.

The mini vacation to Wisconsin Rapids sure was delightful. The handyman and I spent the 4 day weekend together..working and having a little fun.

Our Weekend Adventures started off on Friday as we got down to business around the house and yard. I started my morning with the inspiration of the sunshine beaming down and an MP3 player hooked up with my favorite GO list..as I took a 6 mile hike downtown Rapids.

That started off the day to then mow Grandma's lawn and to continue enjoying the outdoors. Later in the day, the handyman gave the doggies a bath-pictures to come on that. The summer night was enjoyed with cooking over the open bonfire in my new 4 qt. dutch oven and laying in the fresh warm air in our hammock.

Saturday day was a day fun in the sun as well. We spent the day cruising in the boat with Josh. Waiting in the cool waters up at the sandbar and having a few Margarita Mikes Hard Lemonades.

Sunday was an enjoyable afternoon with Jake's Grandparents. Sometimes things remind us in life just what is important and family sure is. We had a nice visit and helped with a few yard chores and watering the flowers.

Sunday evening we enjoyed dinner out at our favorite spot-el Mezcal! yummy as always.
We then bought our fishing license..bonus to being married-Discount on our yearly passes. We hit the shoreline of Nepco Lake to catch a few 2-incher pan fish and to my surprise cray fish. Another delightful evening in the fresh air.

Monday was spent relaxing and watching Deadliest Catch-those guys have nothing on me..my cray fish were pretty big. I met my Mom for an afternoon of shopping. The hunt for wedding shoes is on. As I got home, the handyman had the kayaks and truck loaded. We hit the other side of Nepco and got out on the water. We enjoyed a new adventure of fishing from the kayaks. We took home a dozen pan fish..so tonight..fresh fish dinner. Last night then we enjoyed another dutch oven recipe over the open fire..Campfire Potatoes!
