Fun time tuesday night

It has been a very long time since date night meant more than just going to our local favorite restaurant for dinner. Preston finally had a true day off and after having some time to himself, he planned a great date night.  He picked me up from dinner and we headed to the hills where it was much cooler than the 97 degrees here in the valley. 

We had an enjoyable dinner and we took our time but we were home by 915pm.  We forget out close Park City really is.  I see us heading up there whenever we can this summer.

Enjoying my weekends!

I really liked my weekend. I got to spend a lot of time with my hubby and the girls.  Preston and I ran errands on Saturday which included new walking shoes for me. Lunch at our favorite place.

We came home to the gang outside in the backyard enjoying the sun and reading.  Then off to Costco for three of us. Then a quick trip home to change out people and then headed to a Summer Bash with great music. I was able to knit while listening to awesome music.

Sunday was the typical go to church, but then had lunch with friends J and T. We don't see them enough. I am hoping with Preston's change of schedule we can spend more time with them. Then we did the Angel Food attempt. First one was with Banana flour, this is not a good use of the flour.  Scored a -10 and immediately went into the garbage. The 2nd one was with some other gluten free flour, it was good but not my best. The flour was old and now I will get fresher and try again.

Also I woke up this morning to find that the niece of my heart has made her debut! I cannot wait to snuggle this one next month. It seems so weird not to be there for her birth.

Knit Night Recap

Friday night knit night was one of kind, with good food fresh from the pressure cooker. We had dog drama and great knitting done. We all had done our homework so we started at the same place (okay Amy had a little of the cuff left to do but I am not saying anything..nope not me...hee hee..). When it was all said and done we all got finished at the same spot. Very successful knit night!

Plus a little more knitting was completed on my 2nd square,

End of Week fun

Things are a little out of order this week, with knit night and date night swapping. After work Preston and I had time together to relax and then headed to our favorite place for dinner.  We talked and relax and some of our favorite wait staff was there and got to visit with them. As we were leaving Em and Amy J walked in, we stayed and visited with them while they had their dinner. 

 

When we returned home, we found that China our youngest cat and very cute plus extremely soft cat was hanging out in her favorite spot the dirty laundry bag. She loves it when Preston empties it and it ends up laying on its side. It is like her own personal safe haven.  We are thinking of getting her own.

 

Today is a gorgeous day, the sun is out and it is only lightly cloudy with a little wind. I was able to take a short walk this morning as my left foot is been causing me some pain, I am giving it a little rest and stretching. Hopefully I will be back to my walking regime that I am enjoying. As I am back having coffee each morning as we found a coffee that my body likes, but I am not over doing.

 

I am excited about knit night tonight. I am loving that we are doing a Knit a long, hopefully tonight won't be too stressful for our new knitters.

 

 

Thursday

Just needed a little smile and a pick me up today!

Yesterday's storm

Snow on mountains by night

I can't tell it is going to be one of those weird weather summers.  It really never was warmer that 49 degrees all day. In fact, hubby turned on the heat in the evening just to take the damp chill off the house. I so loved that act of kindness.  I love weather, especially raining weather. It does feel strange to be wearing a hoodie on my morning walks on Tuesday and Wednesday, especially since they are calling for near 90's by Saturday. 

I am enjoying my morning walks for the most part. I upped my mileage too quickly last week and paid for it. So I have cut back down to 1.7 miles and will wait the seven days to up it again.
