Vacation in a nutshell

Our happily ever after continues on into 2 years!!! Wow crazy how fast married life flies! We celebrated our 2nd anniversary/honeymoon by us both taking off a week from work and spending quality time together.

So here is our week in a nutshell!!!

Monday - Rain, rain go away!!! Well the day started rainy so we slept in and decided to make that day our errand running day. We had lunch at our favorite fast food place, Chick-fi-la. After leaving there we headed to Bankston Ford to get one of my seats worked on. Lucky us, we got put in a Ford Focus! Yeah it was hilarious! Cliff is 6'4" and tried to drive out of there in this wind up car. No offense to anyone, but not a good combination for my man. We had to pick up my ring that was being repaired in Plano, then decided to hit up the mall. I have been needing new glasses so we decided to look around. We found the perfect ones at the Oakley Store, they are super cute. I should have them in a few days actually! The coolest part of our mall trip besides new eyewear, is we were able to park in the "compact car" parking spot! Picture attached for proof!!! Picked up our car and thankfully, they factory never sprayed the seat with some sort of lubricant (and yes it stunk REALLY bad) so my seat wouldn't go down. Ford makes me so happy one moment and irritated the next. To top the day Cliff and I stopped by Best Buy and he bought me a new camera!!! Yes a new one that takes awesome pictures!! We went with a Canon and absolutely love it so far! I feel like a photographer, just wish some days I had more to take!

Tuesday - We slept in and the coolest part was Cliff layed in bed keeping still just so I could sleep! And the first words he spoke were Happy Anniversary!!! i made him French Toast for a breakfast in bed treatment! I got a pedicure by my wonderful nail chicky, Shayne, and got this wonderful turquoise color. Its rockin!!! We stopped by Cabela's on our way to Downtown Fort Worth and I got Cliff a game camera! Got a super deal on it too!!! We then arrived downtown. We had dinner at the Reata http://www.reata.net/. I would described it as cowboy cuisine with a country/western sizzle! Food was excellent!!! We both got steak.. Cliff got a buffalo ribeye and I got a tenderloin and a lobster tail. Delicious!!! We ended the night walking around downtown and sitting at 8.0 talking and just looking back on our great times together.

Wednesday - Sunday: We literally worked our booty's off extending our patio with flagstone! It looks wonderful and will be great this summer! We also broke out the kiddie pool to relax in on the hots days!!! We both got way too much sun in the process.

Bare with me too.. pics are not in order but they will make sense.. Sorry!
New Flower Bed - Hoe'd by both, planted with love by me!
