We are in the summer :) half the year has gone bye :S it's incredible before we know it the holidays will hit :S but thankfully I love to SHOP :). I'm looking forward to a fun filled summer even though we don't even have it all planned out :S but I am looking forward to some events :) #BLESSED:)
This month like previous months has been productive :) This is our anniversary month :) 13 years together and we gave been through a whole lot but I am SO blessed to have this awesome man by my side :). So, it's been 13 years together and 4 years married :). In some respects it seems like SO long and in others it just seems like time has just flown bye :S I guess it depends on how you look at things :)
Anniversary Dinner at Flemings :) His new favorite steak house :)
Their lemon drops are the bomb :)
Anniversary gift
I also made him some beer labels which he LOVED :) DIY Crafts :) I got creative :)
This year for our anniversary the hubby went all out :). We went out to dinner to Flemings :) his new favorite steak house :) then we spent the weekend in Palm Springs at our timeshare :). Our timeshare is the best investment ever :). It's a vacation home that is paid for :) we love it :) it is perfect :) we had such a good time :) it was both our first time there :). things started great :). We decided to do the Ariel Tram and eat at the top of the mountain :). It was SO high and such an incredible view :) then things got really rocky for us :S we experienced the night from HELL :S we went out on that Friday night to a Cigar bar and had a GREAT time :). But then that changed :(. We got lost going back to our timeshare SO we had to walk back because we couldn't find the free bus stops :S. It was a LONG walk :S we got back around 1am :S hit up a local Denny's and then we couldn't get back in our room :S there was a malfunction with the door so the Keys wouldn't work :S and by this time it was around 2am :S so no maintainence available :S SO :S they opened up another room for us to spend the night in :S but we had nothing on us :S no phone charges no toothbrushes, nothing :S that night was HORRIBLE and we spent our night in another room :) it was the night from HELL :S we were SO uncomfortable :S bright and early the next day we got up and went to the front to see what was up :S and still no maintainence :S and we waited :S and of course we got hungry while waiting around :S SO they were kind enough to go get us some yummy food at a local restaurant :) so a FREE breakfast :). Then around 10am that morning they finally were able to access our room :) SO we did some self pampering and then took a nap to try to recovery from the uncomfortable night before :S then we spent the day by the pool :) it was awesome :) we would walk out of the room and the pool was right there :) then we got ready and went out to another steak house :) Brandon loves him some steak :) then we spent the night out on the town and we were able to get back alright and no difficulties this time :) we were able to find the bus stop and the door was fixed :) Then that Sunday we signed up to go to a presentation in Indio and get some free stuff :) I always love getting free stuff :) the Indio spot was really nice and a little more family orientated :) So all in all the weekend started off GREAT then got really tough but overall was perfect :). We got to spend the weekend in Palm Springs for free cause they gave us credit due to the difficulties, we got a free breakfast and a free gift card and overall free weekend :) SO all in all a pretty free weekend :) I would go through those difficulties again if I had to for another free weekend :S
Palm Springs ariel tram was spectacular :) We had lunch at the top of the mountain :)
Then the following weekend we finally got the Claremont loop in :) I was beyond happy :) I have been wanting to go for months :S It was not to bad :) it took us an hour and 50 mins to go 5 miles on the loop :S I want to be able to do it in 90 mins :) that is my goal :)
Claremont Loop :) I LOVE my camo gear :) always have my brother on my mind when I sport it :)
Then it was father day :) We had a good time and I decided to take one of the greatest men I know my dad out to eat :) We were going to go to Outback because like I said Brandon loves him some steak :) but it was way to crowded :S so we hit up a local BBW and you would think it would be packed as well :) but thankfully it wasn't. The crowd came as we were living :)
I am still on my workout grind :) and I am beyond happy that I hit my goal this month :) So now I am trying to hit my ultimate goal and ton up all over :) I'm hoping to hit my ultimate goal by the time we go to Parker in August :) The self wraps that I got from my Comadre Gaby Davis is working wonders :) I wrap myself up all the time :) I'm already fly :) I would love to be SUPER fly though :) I need July to fly by for several reasons :) The main reason is so that I can see my niece and nephew :) and SO we can go to Parker :) We love it there :) #comeonweekendof8/6/15
I am beyond HAPPY that I hit my weight goal in June :) I also LOVE all the compliments I get from others :) they see a difference :) I SO saw a difference as well when I put my bikini on for our Laughlin trip :) I officially hit my goal and 3.7ibs away from my ultimate goal :) We hit up Laughlin the last weekend of the month and where able to comp it up :) Glad we went by ourselves :) We SO needed to get this in :) It was our first trip since the accident that we went ALONE and we needed to see if we still had it and would be ok. And, thankfully we were :) #SOBLESSED Everything was super easy :)
My garden is doing SUPER :) It gets SO much of my attention :) The cucumber tree seems to be coming along nicely :) as is the grape tree :) homegrown is WAY better then store bought stuff :) The collard greens are still producing and I make them all the time :) I had to pull our Jalapeño tree up because ants were attacking it :S So I just planted new seeds :) The hubby LOVES our jalapeños :) He makes shark bites all the time :) The one tree that has flowers but hasn't produced nothing yet is the bell pepper tree :S The tomato trees are getting to be huge :S We have so many tomatoes in the house, in the garden, everywhere :S And the birds netting is doing their job but handling it SUCKS :S It SO gives me a job :) Thankfully I love being out there in my garden and I am SO pleased when it produces :) It is SO therapeutic to me :) it gives me something to look forward to and work on :S Cause it is such a job :) the hubby has made things easy for me :) he LOVES tomatoes SO our tomato tree is producing so it is beneficial to him so I love when it produces :)
Do you see this :S They are bowls of tomatoes :S and, we still have a whole lot out in the garden :S
Overall I have somewhat come to terms with things :) Sometimes, I think WHY, but then I realize we are OK . So its OK :S God intended this to happen to me and for me to heal so wonderfully so that I can be home, and keep our lovely home up, our garden up and exercise :) We are beyond blessed :) #wishyouwereme:) #Beyondblessed
I hope everyone else is having a GREAT summer as well :) Looking forward to what else the summer has to bring :) #SUPEREXCITED Stay blessed people :)
