Wow, I didn’t know what it felt like to have 2 days off in a row with my husband, where we just stayed at home. We love going to our parent’s homes, but sometimes it’s just nice to have time off without any big gone away plans.

Now that being said, 1 of the 2 days, we were not home from 8:30am til 12:10pm.

My work schedule was all messed up this week due to the fact that I worked Saturday, so I had to take hours out of my regular schedule so that I didn’t go over, and then my boss didn’t schedule anyone for Wednesday afternoon, so I told him I’d cover the whole day but then he had to get someone to cover my Friday shift. I was still short 2 hours, so I asked if I could add an extra hour to my already full 10 hour days the first of the week which resulted in me having 2 days off in a row that my Nick also had off!!!

Friday, our plan was to go to Cedar Point, but the rain clouds weren’t in our favour. The prediction for Sandusky, OH was scattered T-storms throughout the day. We decided we didn’t want to make the 2 hour drive there and not get to spend the full time on the rides. So we did the opposite; we stayed in bed until almost 1pm! Nick got me breakfast and we watched a bunch of random stuff on TV. Since we didn’t want to waste the whole day, we went to a mini golf place in Ypsilanti.That was fun! Hunger set in finally and we headed off to Bob Evans! Yep, we’re that old couple who goes to Bob Evans at 3:30pm.  Stopped at Sam’s Club to get gas, bought the next season of NCIS and spent the rest of the night in bed watching an entire 1st disc of season 5!

We’d made plans over a month ago to babysit the babies on Saturday so that Nich could take Jennie out for her birthday. Originally, he’d planned to take her to Chicago. Then Brooklyn’s sleep study landed her in the hospital. So, they decided to stay closer. Jennie’s mom offered to stay at the hospital with her, and hopefully they were still going to go to maybe Cedar Point or something fun, but alas plans still we not in the favour of Cedar Point. They ended up just staying in Ann Arbor, but got to spend the day together, baby-less so that in itself was a nice break for them. We had prepared ourselves for chaos, ready to spend the day with 3 two year olds and 1 five year old, but even Hailey ended spending the day with her great-grandma. So we had just the boys, Brennan, Landon and Papa Dan. The day was easier than expected, still fun and I still got to spend the entire day with my Nick!  I cleaned their kitchen for them and vacuumed the living room. Brennan was a pain in the butt to get to sleep! I have no idea what was up with that!

And that my friends is a re-count of what we did with our 2 day weekend! I probably should upload some pictures sometime soon….

On another note, my BF is moving to NY in the AM.

Best Date EVER. Yesterday Nick and I went to Soak City – the water park @ Cedar Point for the whole day! We got up early and drove there, and then spent the whole day together going on water slide (except 1 because it was very similar to another one so we didn’t feel like waiting in line).

Our theme was slide, something casual, slide, casual. We rode the lazy river that has the water falls twice, and the other lazy river that is truely lazy we rode 4 times. The fourth time we were on a mission because at the end of round 3- we realized somewhere on the ride I had lost my sunglasses. So we went back in again and found the sunglasses at the bottom of the pool downstream from the exit of the lazy river.

We visited a cool pool that cost us an extra $9.50, but it was soo worth it – had to have been my favourite part of the day.

The sun attacked both Nick and I in the places where we missed putting the sunscreen on each other. Hence the bottom half of my legs are a little pink because I decided it would be cool to get a little of the free tan that Nick talks about… and near the straps of my bathing suit.

It was a monumental day for us in our relationship for a couple reasons. One of them being it was the first time we had gone swimming together. We’ve been dating a little over 1 year and 8 months and he proposed before he saw me in a bathing suit – therefore he’s a keeper.

We had decided we wanted to go to TGI Friday’s for dinner after we were done at the park – and remember seeing 2 on the way in. However we thought since the one looked extremely full we would go to the other one. But we mistook the first one for the last one so we drove all the way to Ann Arbor to the TGI Friday’s there. By the time we got there, we were hungry so we ordered an appitizer as well as our meals which were fantastic!!!!! Get the Poppy Seed Chicken!! SOOOO Good.

I loved being with him – just him all day having a blast. I’m not gonna lie: It was sooo fun being his girl all day; his eyes on me only. We considered staying in a hotel in the area for our honeymoon and heading over to Cedar Point for a day or 2 or parts of days since we’d be staying so close. It’s still up in the air though.

I had told him a few days ago I wanted to do something fun on Saturday – I had no idea it was going to be sooooo FUN!!! I LOVE HIM.
