Yesterday was our monthiversary! 139
months married – and happily so.
We
both worked, so much of our day was spent apart, but we tried to sneak in some
phone calls whenever we could.
Once
work was over, it was boot camp night, so we headed to the gym. Apparently I
needed to see if I could use ALL the weights in one tiny workout. 😊
It
was a good workout: Ryan does a great job teaching our class and encouraging me
to keep pushing myself, even when I think I can’t. I can tell I’m getting
stronger, so that’s exciting.
And what is a good follow-up to the gym? Oh, did you say ice cream? Good! Because we did! We went to our favorite ice cream shop for a little treat. Ryan got Boston Cream Pie and I got a Caramel Crunch. SO GOOD. We ate outside and had the best time chatting while we ate.
Then
we came home and had dinner. (Sometimes being an adult really doesn’t have its
benefits. Dessert first!) Ryan grilled chicken that I’d been marinating all
day, and I made roasted veggies. It was all pretty delicious!
After
dinner, we headed outside to put our patio furniture back in place. Everything
had been moved while we had some work done on our patio to correct the drainage
issue. I am counting this as a double-workout because some of that stuff is
HEAVY!
One
of the things I am so excited about is that for the first time in four
years, we have our hammock again! You might remember that we received a hammock
for our wedding, and when we lived in Marion, it was in our pergola in the
backyard. We had it in Kokomo, too, but it was harder to use there, because we
had zero shade and zero privacy. Makes hammock life less relaxing. When we
moved to WillowBridge, we didn’t have a place for it, so we were going to sell
it. My sister ended up taking it and then gifting it back to us when we left
WillowBridge! Alas, we still haven’t had the right spot for it until now, so it’s
been in storage at my parents’ house. We’re reunited now, and I love it as much
as I ever did!
Lexi
and I hung out outside with Ryan while he watered the yard we’re repairing, and
we enjoyed a pretty sunset.
It
was a good day, and I’m grateful for it! Love you so much, Ryan! 😊
