Date, Part 2

I thought you might be so tired after reading all the horseback riding business...so I saved the second part of the date for today.

Oh yes. There was a part 2. 

We sat in our car staring at the horse corrals for a while, and I later discovered he was scoping out a spot to have a picnic!! Alas, it had quite an...aroma...of horses, so he opted for plan B. We drove back toward Logansport and into a park that has a beach! THAT was when I found out he'd hidden a picnic in the back of the car!

{He has such an advantage in hiding things like this, because it takes me so blessed long to do my hair, he has all kinds of time to hide food in cars!}
While he prepared lunch, I got to work on some sand drawing. It was the closest I could come to recreating our honeymoon.
This guy knows the way to my heart. Chicken salad {the good kind}, chips, COKE!!!!, and strawberry cheesecake for dessert.
I said, "I LOVE COKE!!" He said, "I know. Any day that ends in Y is a good day for you to have a Coke." {I really only have them about once a week.}
There were some folks out on the beach who um...well...perhaps could have chosen swimsuits with more coverage. Like a LOT more coverage. We tried not to stare. That didn't go well.
After our leisurely lunch on the beach, it was time for our next stop on our big date!!
I'm a good wife.

But then again. He's a good husband.
After all our shopping, we headed to his parents' house to try to help them out a bit in prepping their home for the big Father's Day shindig the next day. They had been working SO HARD on all the landscaping and cleaning, and a lot of it was done by the time we got there. While I waited for instructions, I checked out a possible future ride.
Ryan actually drove the thing. :)

We were pretty tired when we got home, but man, what a great date!!

Too bad the under-dressed people at the beach removed some of the romantic ambiance from your date. Blah.

And I also love Coke on any day that ends in "Y" however I have a Coke (and sometimes two, if it's been a really rough day) on almost every day that ends in "Y" so I appreciate your self-restraint.

I love Coke, too! I had my June one last Sunday.

Natasha - Yeah, they sorta killed the romance! But it made for a fun picture! And I"m so glad you appreciate the Coke love. I used to have one (or more) every day but had to cut back. I MISS IT.

Lori - how in the world did you wait so long into the month to have one? I'd be breaking it out on the first day of every month!
