Nate and I were supposed to go out of town for our anniversary but we found out early last week that Mason would be having a hockey leveling tournament. So I communicated with the Wander Inn and they're letting us reschedule! Whoop Whoop! I kept the day off because we had a few errands to run and I wanted to spend the time with my boys. We were up early and out of the door by 9:30 am. We went to Plano first, to Play It Again Sports. Mason needed a white jersey for the tournament. Then we went to a couple more hockey stores and then did some thrifting! We ate lunch at Steak and Shake. While we were out and about, we went to check out two of the other Dallas Stars Centers. The Plano location was so awesome! Mason especially loved the bubble hockey game! We had the best day together. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

We'd never been there before and always see it when we're in the area. It's a pretty neat place! And I think we found our next couch there!! After NFM, we went to Scheels. Mason spotted a Connor Bedard jersey within five minutes of being there. We were so shocked they already have his jerseys out! He was the number one draft pick this year and is such a stud on the ice!! Mason was ecstatic. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1EojP63tH2gLIpOOowQf8i_lLN2r7W71Qz8MFE1s5otBXrit5qF3hSU7S817xut2yqVIBPezfWue25cFUhVOaG_jbh9HF6KQh2saI5535FVfvU8pagz_coIQbCXevDtYg-cKqw13WvQRm-CTP9b4vIz867zSD_RIhiQkHE3mkvP_VWB1Aq-R5j9GPXQJc/s4032/IMG_3769.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1EojP63tH2gLIpOOowQf8i_lLN2r7W71Qz8MFE1s5otBXrit5qF3hSU7S817xut2yqVIBPezfWue25cFUhVOaG_jbh9HF6KQh2saI5535FVfvU8pagz_coIQbCXevDtYg-cKqw13WvQRm-CTP9b4vIz867zSD_RIhiQkHE3mkvP_VWB1Aq-R5j9GPXQJc/s16000/IMG_3769.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsU37uG_u0Mc5MdDJSEec6EmNkySXoQNeEwumo5ch2RcD2uL9z3az5S9Eyz9uITK2_ZE1g-Eu4RUKxOkwca4ZDqDEqE_ibO0e5K42JFoI7VG7_ZrMpj8FKUrcjBjcLh_bgkOi8hf27rbk3u_TyYC2ISjvARBiVi3K4Pa4Tf9MaX39ayRiUe02dVVO66dmS/s4032/IMG_3770.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsU37uG_u0Mc5MdDJSEec6EmNkySXoQNeEwumo5ch2RcD2uL9z3az5S9Eyz9uITK2_ZE1g-Eu4RUKxOkwca4ZDqDEqE_ibO0e5K42JFoI7VG7_ZrMpj8FKUrcjBjcLh_bgkOi8hf27rbk3u_TyYC2ISjvARBiVi3K4Pa4Tf9MaX39ayRiUe02dVVO66dmS/s16000/IMG_3770.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQLIlx1366dg8rGhhbRFog41SeAJE55nItHKzZXXzpqT9UJALAMTmA4o33-PdgOkDeRAu-nft9yqZqLo_Sme73mulvH-DUySOdU3wSpBXgSUv8iDr8fTpTTAyYnHOu4HPh5NmD9vOjfZ7bbTUtgs7wda2MZx8DEQbHXPRJR-8bE82RAj88LZS5BI4GeIDF/s4032/IMG_3772.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQLIlx1366dg8rGhhbRFog41SeAJE55nItHKzZXXzpqT9UJALAMTmA4o33-PdgOkDeRAu-nft9yqZqLo_Sme73mulvH-DUySOdU3wSpBXgSUv8iDr8fTpTTAyYnHOu4HPh5NmD9vOjfZ7bbTUtgs7wda2MZx8DEQbHXPRJR-8bE82RAj88LZS5BI4GeIDF/s16000/IMG_3772.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">We are Stars fans to the core, but couldn't pass up Bedsy jersey!! <br /><br /><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>Saturday//</b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Nate and I got up and did some work outside.

The half-pound patty is cooked on a flat-top griddle and is a juicy old-fashioned burger that has won tons of "best burger" awards! Some of their sides are onion rings, crinkle-cut fries, home-made deviled eggs, and fried okra! And you can't forget their homemade shakes. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqcWGQ7r2pCDMCePoJSIAFmnaCvThTexSg-NeLh-R-G0nB-npbKpD35bUp3JHIh5H57DzYketKsMlnyfwP3IFduwxn5zsXtm_iAu9nG3KwZi4frmDgJB-1yPD2ozJg4camtis6kQi7VjUwisWv88BcX4pMOyqGa50TR_Sl5PzemWrTqFL-mhImNG-KSsPj/s4032/IMG_3363.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqcWGQ7r2pCDMCePoJSIAFmnaCvThTexSg-NeLh-R-G0nB-npbKpD35bUp3JHIh5H57DzYketKsMlnyfwP3IFduwxn5zsXtm_iAu9nG3KwZi4frmDgJB-1yPD2ozJg4camtis6kQi7VjUwisWv88BcX4pMOyqGa50TR_Sl5PzemWrTqFL-mhImNG-KSsPj/s16000/IMG_3363.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1qnRz19SCdaBQ7aslvXUP3Y34_pzYm57mdiTPJfQXlqcckQyBVV8yG8u0VA1yFWZ4P--lz0ipB6-jTdTC5JTzPyat-uu7bnHLO1-RLTso6Oasi71cOJ-WHg27hG6x86ryzub1VAEIdZ0_IU__3ua43j_DyiWEMHXEB1KhCj8nOiqlfpcTqDvN-AdjU9Lz/s3809/IMG_3364.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3809" data-original-width="2857" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1qnRz19SCdaBQ7aslvXUP3Y34_pzYm57mdiTPJfQXlqcckQyBVV8yG8u0VA1yFWZ4P--lz0ipB6-jTdTC5JTzPyat-uu7bnHLO1-RLTso6Oasi71cOJ-WHg27hG6x86ryzub1VAEIdZ0_IU__3ua43j_DyiWEMHXEB1KhCj8nOiqlfpcTqDvN-AdjU9Lz/s16000/IMG_3364.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI2GWdGAICq967TvP9ZprymgEoTlJueK7Zl3hZGlYLwgn4Q-Piq1SbGBTv8tt2Lju2QzaJ_UhSKyAOM7QKN_6QEYw3a3YGzcHOsiICwayAu8AccdRZnLQevwtlwoxDAFcXwLvipDjgayfY4-FP2twK-1847VBHlxWB0JPF4acMiMKxE3zXSXtsV_NMFdD_/s4032/IMG_3374.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI2GWdGAICq967TvP9ZprymgEoTlJueK7Zl3hZGlYLwgn4Q-Piq1SbGBTv8tt2Lju2QzaJ_UhSKyAOM7QKN_6QEYw3a3YGzcHOsiICwayAu8AccdRZnLQevwtlwoxDAFcXwLvipDjgayfY4-FP2twK-1847VBHlxWB0JPF4acMiMKxE3zXSXtsV_NMFdD_/s16000/IMG_3374.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">The grocery store shelves are still lined with vintage goods and nostalgic photos plaster the cinder block walls.

It's been quite a week already and thus the reason I am just now getting to share about our weekend. Work has been absolutely insane this week.

Mason tried out a new class called Hockey Power Edges which is power skating, hockey stops, crossovers, falls and recoveries, etc. We can tell this class is going to be so beneficial to our rotation of hockey classes! After Power Edges, Mason did Hockey Academy.

We didn't find anything we couldn't live without, but had fun looking! Nate's brother and his wife went home after that. We went to the Arlington Uptown Cheapskate and then the Mansfield location. We've had great luck finding Mason some stuff there and this time was no exception! Some of the shirts were brand new with tags! Can't beat that. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>Sunday //</b></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Nate and I got up fairly early and went out to work on the chicken coop.

We prepped lunches, did laundry, washed bedding, etc. My chicken coop door was in need of a new sign and I was feeling crafty, so I whipped up a new one. I used mostly Dollar Tree items (the sign, the ship lap wallpaper, the welcome metal sign, the rope) and then used some ribbon and greenery I had in my craft closet. Not bad for a 5ish minute job! And it looks cute on the coop door. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-JRMzTWpiqvpMaMU9q1P0eYXLJbC2TntPbKVzX-swW1PqwcmUW4Vu9xRQUaek0ZdTzp8T1H65ApASBtaZhMXG7L-2QUQFb1eU1HOInHTxiadhZn0ryMEgHPhN_pAZ4dS-BYb5SHnKqEJlLRp9ANOrAKUc8sPHuXUD1FfWXui8rbzhB8xfDKikQlkIpeeK/s3960/IMG_3436.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3960" data-original-width="2970" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-JRMzTWpiqvpMaMU9q1P0eYXLJbC2TntPbKVzX-swW1PqwcmUW4Vu9xRQUaek0ZdTzp8T1H65ApASBtaZhMXG7L-2QUQFb1eU1HOInHTxiadhZn0ryMEgHPhN_pAZ4dS-BYb5SHnKqEJlLRp9ANOrAKUc8sPHuXUD1FfWXui8rbzhB8xfDKikQlkIpeeK/s16000/IMG_3436.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKGW9ge714XVr9o0tUbjEvHttyr6lBGujINAGibZNjpwAKMs6tqYQS87NpxWo72ZZ25ZV4LzpR0md-ZsPd_de9Gi-J-y9ZX7jo6uttcUBquhI13XwrGuMrQe2cey16x4K30V0JFeJzG2nlpMx1FtTfwo7Ad26em03wK6eCqkYFTso7oMBb1YIehQrIn7wz/s4032/IMG_3440.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKGW9ge714XVr9o0tUbjEvHttyr6lBGujINAGibZNjpwAKMs6tqYQS87NpxWo72ZZ25ZV4LzpR0md-ZsPd_de9Gi-J-y9ZX7jo6uttcUBquhI13XwrGuMrQe2cey16x4K30V0JFeJzG2nlpMx1FtTfwo7Ad26em03wK6eCqkYFTso7oMBb1YIehQrIn7wz/s16000/IMG_3440.jpg" /></a></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">I was taking pictures of all the different colors of eggs we were getting and not 20 minutes later I went out to the coop to find a new color!!

I'm thinking her surgery was shortly before we picked her up because it took forever for the anesthesia to wear off. She could barely use her back two legs and kept falling everywhere. It literally broke my heart! I did not like seeing her that way. While I know that the spay was needed, it was hard to go through! Maybe harder on my heart than on her but still. By the third-ish day, she was acting more like herself. She absolutely hated the cone and someone please tell me how you're supposed to limit the activity of a cat? It's nearly impossible!

It would contain just about anything and everything you could ever need. I would feel naked without it. Somewhere along the way (within the last year or so) I have downsized majorly!

Now that Mason is more grown, I don't have to carry much for him - if at all. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXlBQvl0kdhxu06fg3z44XxC_q7RIF5Y8lrAooKiA1kyR-zs4WfX9HP2BG3L7IfRexhlvy86DU4uk-1h-ZKs1kONl0coByEcu8RUZWfSZekwBm_7_wmBrFASNJgUjl3HaVusH887rdZir0x1J4EhE3nnryiky2wLP_b-AWrHxunpbncT9_zljsbaomolgb/s2016/IMG_2886.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXlBQvl0kdhxu06fg3z44XxC_q7RIF5Y8lrAooKiA1kyR-zs4WfX9HP2BG3L7IfRexhlvy86DU4uk-1h-ZKs1kONl0coByEcu8RUZWfSZekwBm_7_wmBrFASNJgUjl3HaVusH887rdZir0x1J4EhE3nnryiky2wLP_b-AWrHxunpbncT9_zljsbaomolgb/s16000/IMG_2886.JPG" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">So, what's in my purse?</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- a small makeup bag that has chapstick, lipstick, medicine (stomach and allergy), hair clips, etc.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- a small wallet with only my debit card, driver's license, ltc, insurance cards, etc.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- a brush and some hair ties</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- hand sanitizer</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- headache meds</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- a pen</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- keys</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- lens cleaner (for my big camera but I've been using on my phone camera lens)</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- a hockey league pamphlet</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">- and the most random thing?

Nate was off and took care of a couple of errands and took Mason back to the eye doctor. After work, we took a glorious little nap!! Then we headed to Grand Prairie to meet friends! We met at Chicken and Pickle for an evening of games and fun! It was my first time there and I really enjoyed it! The atmosphere is top-notch! We had a pickleball court which came with tables. Then there were also life-sized games of shuffleboard, beer pong, battleship, etc. It was so neat!! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans";

Nate helped with tables, tents, and fans while I put together a balloon arch. Then we had to head over to the hockey rink! It was just a few exits up from the party, so that was great! Mason had jersey fittings and then a leveling evaluation! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0XZqBeU36NKQX6GrUxW1yIdSGdCK2i81mivJliyALt8KlZfyBDdM-iVUdMA0xvbpNwkp17W6i_1Mbp7_EK3rpLTELwDEcDObsBIqWvO4uKCgBkssF8JZmlX8MtXcXSMsRB-3WFeBdm8N4erIBpPXfHBL3qwZ3VV-6AN1ZAq5KPXSUr-V4wLU7pb7Dzct9/s3840/IMG_2494.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0XZqBeU36NKQX6GrUxW1yIdSGdCK2i81mivJliyALt8KlZfyBDdM-iVUdMA0xvbpNwkp17W6i_1Mbp7_EK3rpLTELwDEcDObsBIqWvO4uKCgBkssF8JZmlX8MtXcXSMsRB-3WFeBdm8N4erIBpPXfHBL3qwZ3VV-6AN1ZAq5KPXSUr-V4wLU7pb7Dzct9/s16000/IMG_2494.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL0SBiYCC6uOVUIGK-YGOWtu4-nOLxfuDVMcNgeiHFGN3xduzIEvkNcA2IBud-oEapZSTy66VA6Bqm6KqPljSMvp3R8-J4b3s6zwyuH_38RMH_49BK85Q5vymEwH_5aZMGwjEsCCGR49g-HTz5Ghg8h6xY1KXG9Fj_7dd8VVXxDt6VbnAWvwHD9Hgk54Nf/s4032/IMG_2497.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL0SBiYCC6uOVUIGK-YGOWtu4-nOLxfuDVMcNgeiHFGN3xduzIEvkNcA2IBud-oEapZSTy66VA6Bqm6KqPljSMvp3R8-J4b3s6zwyuH_38RMH_49BK85Q5vymEwH_5aZMGwjEsCCGR49g-HTz5Ghg8h6xY1KXG9Fj_7dd8VVXxDt6VbnAWvwHD9Hgk54Nf/s16000/IMG_2497.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiveVZIPAH2RPDX8bOqMVgpW4pxrRQRfu9mJ6glpuwnThEQk0x07BU7nU_bPLONCmQTDWSFnjSJfEWqlAMQXTIcQw8Ccbvu_f7TCCVlLnDAyR1f7dJjz0H9pTfGxQ06E4Asc4SXntyKvBH_Qh0aySNfJCIbuPy79gaAo02HYD4s1kMSJC3QXOaIcHBMbPlu/s4032/IMG_2498.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiveVZIPAH2RPDX8bOqMVgpW4pxrRQRfu9mJ6glpuwnThEQk0x07BU7nU_bPLONCmQTDWSFnjSJfEWqlAMQXTIcQw8Ccbvu_f7TCCVlLnDAyR1f7dJjz0H9pTfGxQ06E4Asc4SXntyKvBH_Qh0aySNfJCIbuPy79gaAo02HYD4s1kMSJC3QXOaIcHBMbPlu/s16000/IMG_2498.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiunxeP0HJEDNo9oVZgb118tCZjuoHDnlovDuiGNK1hlHvKnSDm23RsIQPUhGJOtwUt3k3zs5An0qZGmsk67qEWYvNI31N3_anSnlA1N28SYEyC_dN8znam6-o3slL9JFiaTQFFwPmk9ns0Ur37wRYULDlmU3-yKPOQgD_tcndQahEmS3-URCnLB9oU-GO/s3840/IMG_2499.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiunxeP0HJEDNo9oVZgb118tCZjuoHDnlovDuiGNK1hlHvKnSDm23RsIQPUhGJOtwUt3k3zs5An0qZGmsk67qEWYvNI31N3_anSnlA1N28SYEyC_dN8znam6-o3slL9JFiaTQFFwPmk9ns0Ur37wRYULDlmU3-yKPOQgD_tcndQahEmS3-URCnLB9oU-GO/s16000/IMG_2499.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQlDbJBOEkGakIxLC5mqLrlBdTUq93s_PVoIAEV-uiKeocW2F7q13ZS5Veo6SjADBzRIg7lvBZzWz1qdlS6ZMQUteSP-yJDeTjMStLJ_SuUoFK7CDX4JrMjcNwhkScO4Omil-ZSpf3dMRJCxtL8ziAhmNdebWmJQ3-sRJ42WmScV-CxHxHOdfo_cpThI28/s4032/IMG_2506.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQlDbJBOEkGakIxLC5mqLrlBdTUq93s_PVoIAEV-uiKeocW2F7q13ZS5Veo6SjADBzRIg7lvBZzWz1qdlS6ZMQUteSP-yJDeTjMStLJ_SuUoFK7CDX4JrMjcNwhkScO4Omil-ZSpf3dMRJCxtL8ziAhmNdebWmJQ3-sRJ42WmScV-CxHxHOdfo_cpThI28/s16000/IMG_2506.jpg" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">After the evaluation, we headed back to the Garza's house where the party was.

I helped his mom decorate and prepare for a "back to school bash" - mostly for Carson who is starting Kindergarten. We put together a little scavenger hunt for him to find school supplies! Nate's dad grilled some burgers and hot dogs and it was delicious.

This one is hard. We have had so many fun vacations over the years!! I think our summer trip in 2016 is easily one of my favorites.

We traveled to Colorado Springs, CO to see Nate's best friend graduate from the Air Force Academy. Our flight was scheduled for the day before with plenty of time. Only, some terrible storms came through and our flight was delayed a few times. We finally boarded the plane only to have to sit there another hour or two while it stormed. We looked out the window and saw all of our luggage just sitting out in the rain! We knew that was going to be a disaster. We finally took off and landed in CO! We went to get our rental car and thats where they informed us that we couldn't get a rental because we were not 25 years old. They sure didn't tell us that when we booked it, though. So we had to call a taxi to take us to the hotel. We were staying at the Holiday Inn Garden of the Gods...well the taxi took us to Holiday Inn ON Garden of the Gods road. We think he knew because he gave us his personal phone number and said to call him if we needed anything. We tried checking in and that's when they told us we were at the wrong hotel...ours was on the furthest side of town! So we called the Taxi back to take us to the right hotel. While that taxi bill was enough to make you want to cry, we were just thankful to be at the right hotel. We open our suitcases and everything is drenched. We poured water out of our shoes. So we went to find the hotel laundry room (thankfully they had one). The only dryer had someone's clothes in it. They were both done but there was no one in sight. We waited a solid 30-45 minutes and it didn't seem like anyone was coming so we kindly moved their clothes to their basket that they also left. We finally got our clothes in the dryer! When that was all said and done we climbed in the bed after 3 am. We had to be up and ready to go by 6 am. We made it to the graduation but I would be lying if I said we were not exhausted. We could barely keep our eyes open when the PRESIDENT was speaking! Despite these unfortunate circumstances, we had a great time and can now look back and laugh about it.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>2.)

You fill the canister with the ingredients (ours is big so we use two of each - but you may only need 1 of each), layer ice around the outside of the canister, top with rock salt, add another layer of ice, and then rock salt again, all the way to the top of the ice cream maker.

This charming place has the original penny tile floors, safe, wood floors, and safe door. The bar was built in 1930 by the Friedrich Refrigeration Company out of San Antonio, TX. When you step into Farmluck it's like stepping into a yesteryear soda fountain! The exposed bricks help it to feel like an old-fashioned diner/soda shop that had been there for years. For such a small space, the atmosphere is big! The historic feel is palatable. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibfuQNQFxHr6B-rruRZ3mlzZTgkXv79vdvzghDD_gvjrM-RAZLlxzq7FG_5gdmfP0NEh_hx3f4Cn8RFVLFTSiDjM5pDWXGh7Yo2v0pwDM8HGGmqgm7TZ6auqiL38C6y-JSeXUMk_2VhPs9wIR-y9zBKLYth_NFKpOp_PfmNrHn3S2ZU57rVv1nOy32VfES/s1600/8.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibfuQNQFxHr6B-rruRZ3mlzZTgkXv79vdvzghDD_gvjrM-RAZLlxzq7FG_5gdmfP0NEh_hx3f4Cn8RFVLFTSiDjM5pDWXGh7Yo2v0pwDM8HGGmqgm7TZ6auqiL38C6y-JSeXUMk_2VhPs9wIR-y9zBKLYth_NFKpOp_PfmNrHn3S2ZU57rVv1nOy32VfES/s16000/8.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs_IcY_ff5PCznwrLTi-JivOp0ileCW70atLLFcdapYAqK7Oy43GjuiMX3tSjLrPN8vcJbU62zAIiRYoLePbiEBo2k5huN35gOYcHLJpMNkyzxTtvNv-OAHo0usrPd-UXaW-CaBCCn0GEqfhVFyfCnCBV-bg4jvIYYQOENnK3qXN3HTdsvRrVYMFShBlOM/s3944/IMG_9994.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3944" data-original-width="2958" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs_IcY_ff5PCznwrLTi-JivOp0ileCW70atLLFcdapYAqK7Oy43GjuiMX3tSjLrPN8vcJbU62zAIiRYoLePbiEBo2k5huN35gOYcHLJpMNkyzxTtvNv-OAHo0usrPd-UXaW-CaBCCn0GEqfhVFyfCnCBV-bg4jvIYYQOENnK3qXN3HTdsvRrVYMFShBlOM/s16000/IMG_9994.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbPZl8zVdnszTF904ely3jVvNXV4jxqWzWnO8Vcp4P8_jCRql8C9-270H39vq9Ukq5IQ5C8JOrTsl92L7GUcCozbHkwSSv--p7KVLVnBpqbUnCCnqXUShX8YQpT7yikix4ZbhxUxeSPjVw9T36WuMKS7rqTGtZmIsxw6zn8dzQX_e_0UqN6DkwRiQ9BnbD/s3941/IMG_9995.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3941" data-original-width="2956" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbPZl8zVdnszTF904ely3jVvNXV4jxqWzWnO8Vcp4P8_jCRql8C9-270H39vq9Ukq5IQ5C8JOrTsl92L7GUcCozbHkwSSv--p7KVLVnBpqbUnCCnqXUShX8YQpT7yikix4ZbhxUxeSPjVw9T36WuMKS7rqTGtZmIsxw6zn8dzQX_e_0UqN6DkwRiQ9BnbD/s16000/IMG_9995.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">So, how did Farm Luck get its name? The owners originally wanted to name it "The Farmacy" as an honor to the rich farming history in Ellis County and also as a nod to the old pharmacies where you could also get a shake/malt. However, in the state of Texas, only drug dispensaries can use the name farmacy or pharmacy. That's when the owners settled on the name "Farm Luck" - still honoring the farming history in Ellis County and Luck is a combination of their son's names (Luke and Jack). The Luck part of the name is a constant reminder of why they opened in the first place - to have family-friendly place to make memories. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiM6mBZ2Q0HY7PyFV6YCLCHrxwbZftvDkaQUyfaSvt_o75p5yw-sZdcLFvgIH8DL7AMKRCEkgpr9isFHzBPazUe_3duXpv6J8HilP9PfQq8wYg3lU2LtljrWTVKe0VnuisFe3JDfAaZtBlN3KU_MY2t8aLFMKZb1uiS1Yj_VM8VJIEhRJAXnpvJFt-b2MJ/s4032/IMG_9988.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiM6mBZ2Q0HY7PyFV6YCLCHrxwbZftvDkaQUyfaSvt_o75p5yw-sZdcLFvgIH8DL7AMKRCEkgpr9isFHzBPazUe_3duXpv6J8HilP9PfQq8wYg3lU2LtljrWTVKe0VnuisFe3JDfAaZtBlN3KU_MY2t8aLFMKZb1uiS1Yj_VM8VJIEhRJAXnpvJFt-b2MJ/s16000/IMG_9988.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Farm Luck serves lunch and dinner, consisting of sandwiches, wraps, soups, and salads. Some of the soda fountain options are chocolate egg cream, freshly squeezed lemonade, phosphates, cream sodas, old-fashioned sodas, and of course iced tea! Drinks, shakes/malts, and sundaes are all served in Mason jars (my favorite). The desserts seem to be a town favorite from their homemade banana pudding to their huge banana splits and everything in between.

That evening my cousin came over to do my hair! It had been over a year since I had my hair done...so it was time! I was enjoying how healthy my hair felt but not the color or length. My hair grows so unevenly - the back grows faster than the sides. So it always looks straggly. I went with an icy blonde and a blunt cut with layers. It feels so good and refreshing to be a blonde again! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCTecpB9UBuZZFAhfXkFQgNOu7JOuM1MmfO_tVlfUilEl7Wgw3a9kOzTMYuqgOATplFC9RvBWK6IQ-fqoWg9AQ4PZXnX74fIQFN_4XDxHSNvNuCltwqhpQtAECBdgZ-Zo4ODg06uHnxOKE9J4_3Jnjn7MW-4RVCIu7y3EzAJ1FHwE9Urk0sKXsNPcD5RFQ/s2282/2128AA14-250A-4B5E-B2E8-3ED9D00FF315.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2282" data-original-width="1284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCTecpB9UBuZZFAhfXkFQgNOu7JOuM1MmfO_tVlfUilEl7Wgw3a9kOzTMYuqgOATplFC9RvBWK6IQ-fqoWg9AQ4PZXnX74fIQFN_4XDxHSNvNuCltwqhpQtAECBdgZ-Zo4ODg06uHnxOKE9J4_3Jnjn7MW-4RVCIu7y3EzAJ1FHwE9Urk0sKXsNPcD5RFQ/s16000/2128AA14-250A-4B5E-B2E8-3ED9D00FF315.jpg" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">For comparison's sake...</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0IZBsrEKqqQrFteH04kn3-y9IDUtX7Ih6tfsMC-4wubCibq8F6lamsgDDn5EwsrmnTTcHllS1Dig8Ez5ntJXEpeYShbfQum1ZMvBu4cA9CYyBlCxLZXaH7YK9bcBpXq9nBdjrHojG8JLf3ns3D2vtiB5tSqDiEGJSL2XjCdw1CERuG_8uc9y-yYowAW_c/s2000/before-after.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="2000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0IZBsrEKqqQrFteH04kn3-y9IDUtX7Ih6tfsMC-4wubCibq8F6lamsgDDn5EwsrmnTTcHllS1Dig8Ez5ntJXEpeYShbfQum1ZMvBu4cA9CYyBlCxLZXaH7YK9bcBpXq9nBdjrHojG8JLf3ns3D2vtiB5tSqDiEGJSL2XjCdw1CERuG_8uc9y-yYowAW_c/s16000/before-after.png" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">We stayed home the rest of the evening.

There's an Uptown Cheapskate right by the rink, so we went to check it out. I got a brand new pair of Brooks running shoes for $19.99. I thought that was a steal! When we checked out they gave us a 10% off coupon if we visited the Arlington location within 7 days. So, we headed over there. Mason hit the jackpot there! We found him a pair of Abercrombie jeans, a pair of Lucky jeans. a pair of Columbia shorts, an Aeropostale shirt, and a True Religion zip-up hoodie. On our way home we stopped at Salvation Army and Mason found several Dallas Stars & Maverick shirts. I didn't take any photos but I have a little video of Mason's haul!</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzCQgWe9UVch4EljqMlEsXbHruXdA_S0ARJCtf21TM_LE1CtdH4tYJqwPIb4mvXhAl6UNdaaiNNe4P_UbhYOg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Then we came home to find that our washing machine had flooded the utility room. Not terribly, but there was a ton of water for sure. Our washing machine has been on the fritz for a while and we knew it was just a matter of time. We bought this set brand new in 2006, so it did us well. We went to Home Depot and picked up a new set. Thankfully, they were in stock. It never fails, the minute you get behind on the laundry something happens! I had a ton to catch up on. We came home and pulled the old set out and put the new set in. This lead to an overhaul on our laundry/utility room. And naturally, with a new washer and dryer, I felt like I needed to wash everything in the house. We were up until 1 in the morning working on it! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDvTVKmnnRjttaJiDES-g6WXNyBBNRZDtW0RjivMlX65dL1CPNTz3hS24MorGnJq4O2rG0odVlzMeaSBGPzu0de3hKOMwC7WDkQnSG1MkAnwKJEKLUO_i9w8typtBYzhJvgF7AmT-DXlJWP82O3LX9Ky5U36t9k_Dht7vFwPhwWguCH3O2JpqPNyQtLmpk/s4028/IMG_2103.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4028" data-original-width="3021" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDvTVKmnnRjttaJiDES-g6WXNyBBNRZDtW0RjivMlX65dL1CPNTz3hS24MorGnJq4O2rG0odVlzMeaSBGPzu0de3hKOMwC7WDkQnSG1MkAnwKJEKLUO_i9w8typtBYzhJvgF7AmT-DXlJWP82O3LX9Ky5U36t9k_Dht7vFwPhwWguCH3O2JpqPNyQtLmpk/s16000/IMG_2103.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>Sunday //</b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Even though we had a late night, I forced myself out of bed at 7:30 to go for a walk! I didn't want to sleep in and then have to walk in the 100+ degree weather. I already do that in the evenings and it is brutal. So, Lexi and I got up and walked a couple of miles. When we got back to the house I went and did some chicken coop work. This is where I learned that one of my Easter Eggers started laying!! Whoop, whoop! I now have 3 layers out of 7 hens. I can't wait until the others start laying. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVYGMBj-X7M-znQESPkGFiRdBG5N-MIPd9Wmfjp1tPT8B0dwuc_6s7FcHGKEhgr2gjp-JWkryvxGBctjgshRIIwf_t40SF29RSxvjHcGemioYyj4EhdtpPTpFfHRfHXEwYFHvz_hEIfSJ_145-lst1hHGl27dhdi0ztc4dVqFxVF5LL25OjqHsA6G-vIfP/s4032/IMG_2119.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVYGMBj-X7M-znQESPkGFiRdBG5N-MIPd9Wmfjp1tPT8B0dwuc_6s7FcHGKEhgr2gjp-JWkryvxGBctjgshRIIwf_t40SF29RSxvjHcGemioYyj4EhdtpPTpFfHRfHXEwYFHvz_hEIfSJ_145-lst1hHGl27dhdi0ztc4dVqFxVF5LL25OjqHsA6G-vIfP/s16000/IMG_2119.jpg" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">We didn't make it to church - so online it is! The rest of Sunday was a major reset day. We cleaned, pulled weeds on the side porch, did copious amounts of laundry, went grocery shopping, cooked supper, and meal prepped for the rest of the week. Nate joined me on my evening walk! He's such a fast walker that I was practically running to keep up! We did a pretty quick mile and called it good. I had almost 6 miles already logged for Sunday - so I was good with that! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwzvBbXj5o0cOgQTNWYKhw9RSeSSnKVGt2a2LWS4dVCg_4-FXCCH3u6LHmCPasiHU16PPb5dmoBAHSeNCt18hpIQOxvmlxpr2urdZytNUhMlaz69nGRQgsDgWoVI7bFvrT8NYQqsSdKnGPNnUnPPGy-iZT98zygd4T5zkeQWARhfRFUS7M4ffvu8Y7hJZ-/s2282/9FD1FE6D-C95D-46D4-BE79-F649E04F7230.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2282" data-original-width="1284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwzvBbXj5o0cOgQTNWYKhw9RSeSSnKVGt2a2LWS4dVCg_4-FXCCH3u6LHmCPasiHU16PPb5dmoBAHSeNCt18hpIQOxvmlxpr2urdZytNUhMlaz69nGRQgsDgWoVI7bFvrT8NYQqsSdKnGPNnUnPPGy-iZT98zygd4T5zkeQWARhfRFUS7M4ffvu8Y7hJZ-/s16000/9FD1FE6D-C95D-46D4-BE79-F649E04F7230.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Hello new week!

Life, my marriage, being a mother, daily walks, The Bible Recap, my chickens, watching Mason play hockey, friends that have become family, sunrises and sunsets, fresh blooms on our crape myrtle, walking barefoot in the grass, ice water with lime, hearing everyone's roosters while out on my walks, Sweet Magnolias, that my hens are starting to lay, my night-time serum...just to name a few!</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Looking forward to //</span></b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Hockey League!!!

The heat is suffocating and it's miserable to do anything outdoors. We are outdoorsy people!!

It's been around 105 degrees here with a high UV index and high humidity! Makes it hard to want to wear any clothes at all. Ha! All jokes aside, I've been wearing a lot of athleisure wear. I've been walking twice a day (mornings and evenings) about 3-5 miles a day. I got some new walking/running shoes last weekend so I have been wearing those daily! They feel like walking on clouds. I went with comfort over cute this time since I was actually using them for physical activity! I went with Asics running shoes. I forgot how good they feel on my feet! Our cheerleading shoes were always Asics brand! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Next month we are sharing what we are currently loving, seeing, dreaming, eating, and using to decorate.

She needed us to bring the shoes Mason intended to wear with the suit so that she knew how much to take up on the pant length.

He looked like such a grown teenager getting this done!! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfbx3vxc3DDuddTz4AiHfVhfGTprD4LGznMSUaJYIYVG4tkES9SqpauJmHAgNLsLDGOGrcx-O1lTvgLNmhOPch1n1_1WrXudJ9EcUjyNtv0eFvkujLLal2W8-R-l1DzzANYh53t-wfyJX6hec4xhN8dwMcCiVsZFC0c9dSy3HWa99kne7GaCV1eR_40Rbn/s4032/IMG_1606.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfbx3vxc3DDuddTz4AiHfVhfGTprD4LGznMSUaJYIYVG4tkES9SqpauJmHAgNLsLDGOGrcx-O1lTvgLNmhOPch1n1_1WrXudJ9EcUjyNtv0eFvkujLLal2W8-R-l1DzzANYh53t-wfyJX6hec4xhN8dwMcCiVsZFC0c9dSy3HWa99kne7GaCV1eR_40Rbn/s16000/IMG_1606.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTngh51f0KhNzQSjAKPMoA0m6dFCWRAyjIV0X7oJuk5t5snUlzb5rtd5O-RB4Hwd0Md_5NFPOAtSBBj-ba55aMJUCA1Pc21s-8e1NTx2VwbE7S802VUBz4vuMLwlq7mp1FGRlF68n6klJLIYUOOt5Qod8enl4ZK335GlefcEao_BywUBldp31f1fA2a4Wh/s4032/IMG_1607.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTngh51f0KhNzQSjAKPMoA0m6dFCWRAyjIV0X7oJuk5t5snUlzb5rtd5O-RB4Hwd0Md_5NFPOAtSBBj-ba55aMJUCA1Pc21s-8e1NTx2VwbE7S802VUBz4vuMLwlq7mp1FGRlF68n6klJLIYUOOt5Qod8enl4ZK335GlefcEao_BywUBldp31f1fA2a4Wh/s16000/IMG_1607.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgVaKV7Chao4Kf8muoflk2VrrDyArxSrpxsHbzYDzBPuciayocJ1w8mt8W_-mMwKCxzQavt556m1zH99TpLAdlnHzpMwp8nmPMVwpWLwWt0UkuMOTFrem--K7xO8kXoZ8oMTA0LHpLPHvaSUfM47FNTaHfHH4DJqgvA1zuY-AEglTkEM_CuO40vL9Zd_60/s4032/IMG_1608.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgVaKV7Chao4Kf8muoflk2VrrDyArxSrpxsHbzYDzBPuciayocJ1w8mt8W_-mMwKCxzQavt556m1zH99TpLAdlnHzpMwp8nmPMVwpWLwWt0UkuMOTFrem--K7xO8kXoZ8oMTA0LHpLPHvaSUfM47FNTaHfHH4DJqgvA1zuY-AEglTkEM_CuO40vL9Zd_60/s16000/IMG_1608.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8kEaAvute5ZcAr-jJuqbXKCyvB6rb8oPLgVjuE-PdpPAFhTvvpar_WdBtEkd_1oNQ6ZWT2aw9SWfJhUJCkeySszogC7CnIDGWEJDn2wrQEoMh1kfDen3RAxs3RwPaXcWMRffP2qpjZRvS0-jEV9my6RhaBMUJXk0HWl_Y_OdQHZ8T1AEey_DUbAZcyEo_/s4032/IMG_1609.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8kEaAvute5ZcAr-jJuqbXKCyvB6rb8oPLgVjuE-PdpPAFhTvvpar_WdBtEkd_1oNQ6ZWT2aw9SWfJhUJCkeySszogC7CnIDGWEJDn2wrQEoMh1kfDen3RAxs3RwPaXcWMRffP2qpjZRvS0-jEV9my6RhaBMUJXk0HWl_Y_OdQHZ8T1AEey_DUbAZcyEo_/s16000/IMG_1609.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Then headed to Grapevine Mills Mall to do some shopping for our California trip.

When we were on our last Disney cruise we put down deposits to hold 4 rooms at a discounted rate for a future cruise. We decided that we probably wouldn't be doing another Disney cruise any time soon so we got the deposits back. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br />When we got home I walked a mile around our property.

Then I ran to get us drinks at Sonic! Mason is still in his Combine Prep intensives for Hockey, so our class was later than we are used to. Mason got to sleep in a bit and then chill a while before his 11:45 am Hockey practice. It was so foggy in the rink so we sat on the home and visitor benches so that we could see the practices. Nate's parents joined us! Mason had a blast and said it was his best and favorite practice ever. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px;

I hope that you all have had the most beautiful week. We sure did! Soaking in these final summer days before our lives start to get even more busy!! With school and league starting, I know that we will have a busy schedule. I am excited about those two things, though. Mason will be starting 8th (gasp) grade! One more year of junior high and then it's high school. Goodness, that happened fast. And before I start crying, let's move on. Here's a look at our week as well as some randomness. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMJRfh2wQJNyrceycbmYQFnPcMHL7VskP_k6nCOQNeOuI-ePhAdBCUjiwvDiDYEHnU9F-CDphewCbrKcdlkcVOfsaAbNMaU5_KnzXX81VsFB4cVi8dY0wxOJ4Z-4MdmJ7YkJyBSXn4IElo2U5rpZa-BYpZWLhz3Q2EtN_pduHulNwjvT-5oi-ntksCm3yZ/s1645/Green%20Hello%20Summer%20(Facebook%20Post).png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1379" data-original-width="1645" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMJRfh2wQJNyrceycbmYQFnPcMHL7VskP_k6nCOQNeOuI-ePhAdBCUjiwvDiDYEHnU9F-CDphewCbrKcdlkcVOfsaAbNMaU5_KnzXX81VsFB4cVi8dY0wxOJ4Z-4MdmJ7YkJyBSXn4IElo2U5rpZa-BYpZWLhz3Q2EtN_pduHulNwjvT-5oi-ntksCm3yZ/s16000/Green%20Hello%20Summer%20(Facebook%20Post).png" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>O N E //</b></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">This week started off so, so good. Sunday evening I was doing my Bible study and saw a notification come across my phone from Junk Gypsy saying that I won the giveaway! I may have squealed a bit and then went to verify it was legit! It was! I won a free stay at the Junk Gypsy <a href="https://gypsyville.com/wander-inn/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Wander Inn</a>! You can check out the post <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CuqSYuPvc4l/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>. So dreamy, right? I absolutely cannot wait. This place has been on our radar for the longest. We love the town of Round Top and love visiting during the antique weekend.

The open hockey was for ages 13-18 and was his first one in this age group. Mason is still a very young and small (comparatively speaking) 13-year-old. He took the ice and within minutes it was starting to fill up with teens much older and bigger than him! At first, they were all just skating around, practicing stops, shooting the puck, etc. Then they all grouped in the middle to divide into two teams. I fully expected Mason to get overwhelmed and intimidated, but I am happy to say that wasn't the case at all. These kids have all been playing hockey for years and are all on "elite" teams. Mason just started in February after never even stepping foot on an ice rink (except for a 30-minute stint at a Christmas event - and even then he held on to the wall the whole time). Then a very intense hour-long game started! These kids were playing full-on contact and going hard! At first Mason kind of just stood frozen in amazement! Then he started to get into it. These kids were all so immensely kind to him and passed him the puck many times! They even took the time to teach him things. It warmed my heart so much that they welcomed him, arms wide open, even though he was nowhere near their level. He had the best time and couldn't stop talking about it the whole way home. I love this rink and how willing everyone is to help the newer kids! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCW2L6TvmiB4ncewbMjvs5c4leCzajYTNEMfoAUAtDk14oxPg6WlYjx1IqRVIVEBzW0N9x7KZmuVaKK8mh8Jp8tlEujuB-5BWr65eTmyyJEiDSo3e0Tnwzt7NUEJjLHhSzwlqEsHDke3rxzWsGhFVZix0ocS7DbG7t-PGRtb57gq0c92QU4k2DSpNly4He/s4032/IMG_1497.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCW2L6TvmiB4ncewbMjvs5c4leCzajYTNEMfoAUAtDk14oxPg6WlYjx1IqRVIVEBzW0N9x7KZmuVaKK8mh8Jp8tlEujuB-5BWr65eTmyyJEiDSo3e0Tnwzt7NUEJjLHhSzwlqEsHDke3rxzWsGhFVZix0ocS7DbG7t-PGRtb57gq0c92QU4k2DSpNly4He/s16000/IMG_1497.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj65PCWKy0nU8DexgwWZ9qNyNy4PGgbGNHhVfwDvy8Nt8YgWceMQzrtuYdk15erik0_hAHi98-KsiGqgmO0DbDYi6K9elTqlREx9gkv63-ziODDhPJ7YNwr0o-yBJmBawqKj189rSHERvAV1wrgrqFNUCG-9XX4VDSBkZQnT4Xmxfh6it0LK2ACbwhx0x-/s1280/a.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj65PCWKy0nU8DexgwWZ9qNyNy4PGgbGNHhVfwDvy8Nt8YgWceMQzrtuYdk15erik0_hAHi98-KsiGqgmO0DbDYi6K9elTqlREx9gkv63-ziODDhPJ7YNwr0o-yBJmBawqKj189rSHERvAV1wrgrqFNUCG-9XX4VDSBkZQnT4Xmxfh6it0LK2ACbwhx0x-/s16000/a.png" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>T H R E E //</b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Before we left for Hockey on Monday we got an email about a Prep League starting this Wednesday. It's a high-intensity training for kids that are interested in starting league this fall/winter. The link showed it was for ages 12 and under so we talked to the manager at the rink about it. He said that since Mason just barely turned 13 that he was welcome to join the prep league and highly encouraged it. So, Mason will be doing this for the next 5 sessions instead of his normal Hockey Academy. I'm excited to see what he learns in these classes. He's excited too! He had his first class this Wednesday</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>F O U R // </b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Summer vacations...</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">I keep seeing posts about vacations and how families travel to the same destination summer after summer. It got me thinking about this a lot and I realized that I am completely torn between wanting to have that "familiar" summer vacation and traveling to somewhere new every summer. I love that a place can become nostalgic and you can build upon memories every time you visit but then there is just something so exciting and freeing in seeing new parts of the world. In doing something different. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">And, I just realized that this sums me up to a T! I have a bit of a gypsy soul but I also find so much comfort in familiar places. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">I guess it's not a bad thing. The best of both worlds. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Anyhow, do you go to the same destination every summer or do you go to new places every summer? And why? </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">For the most part, we travel to new places each summer. We have "places" that we frequent and have become a part of our family's history and memories but we do not have a specific place that we travel to at the same time every year. For the last couple of years, our summers have consisted of small weekend trips here and there and then a cruise for our "big" summer vacation. We love cruising and getting to see new places at different ports. This year we will not be going on a cruise (unless we book something super last minute) but we do have several fun trips coming up! We do have a cruise booked for July 2024, though. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">August - Round Top TX to stay at the Wander Inn</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Sept - Fredericksburg over Labor Day weekend, California </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">October - Halloween camping</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">December - somewhere after Christmas (not sure the destination yet)</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><b>F I V E //</b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">I took a PTO Day today and I am so excited!!

This fence is located on a 100+ year-old crumbling retaining brick wall. Instead of tearing it down, they came up with this fun and unique idea of a place where visitors and residents could publicly display their love for each other, or for the town by placing a heart-shaped lock on the fence. </span></p><p><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVWYiBICjC6LSUfnD1Fe-frvMhf73eGb4yI1yew1CYfF1j3PEW_RDvGXMDG-zhEykSO-PMxKFzzEaWtNjSLmMrbndkUkgsaZum0_0NrgY4xNDUBGbCqup0HOjCF5xEodEgyj4MR7duJ3cKq4MMtbjITZKpLk1mFtIo3wfIeGz3-gCX_dEqv3xTtH-qRxcS/s940/1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVWYiBICjC6LSUfnD1Fe-frvMhf73eGb4yI1yew1CYfF1j3PEW_RDvGXMDG-zhEykSO-PMxKFzzEaWtNjSLmMrbndkUkgsaZum0_0NrgY4xNDUBGbCqup0HOjCF5xEodEgyj4MR7duJ3cKq4MMtbjITZKpLk1mFtIo3wfIeGz3-gCX_dEqv3xTtH-qRxcS/s16000/1.png" /></a></div><br /><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Mayor Kevin Strength and his wife were the first to place their love locks on the fence.

Walks both in the morning and the evening, exercise and just moving my body in between, and upping my water intake. I gave up diet sodas before Lent and have not picked up one since. So, I mostly drink water anyhow. I'm just upping the amount I drink in a day. Not hard with this Texas heat!! I've walked 3-5 miles every day for a week and I'm just so darn proud of myself! I just want to look and feel healthy!! I'm also still doing intermittent fasting and only eating between 1pm - 7pm. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Today I am starting a wall pilates challenge and will do that for a month to see how I like it. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipRyhetZ5XwrHzJFizbPVSMnsdAyLNCD2OyI8JZomeuN9RnAQR0bie19LwrKTisvdqQYXPtVt_IEtG8nyNOjNVWRW-bCfA4uXsrs0BfajYBeQzGRu6gchEfxcOTx0EoW5BJV5eRF_Bnk4bgtjkP9Wykzcw-Pt38ZTcEfulFlncYszuSBcC8XSlMGXVHHL4/s2000/2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="2000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipRyhetZ5XwrHzJFizbPVSMnsdAyLNCD2OyI8JZomeuN9RnAQR0bie19LwrKTisvdqQYXPtVt_IEtG8nyNOjNVWRW-bCfA4uXsrs0BfajYBeQzGRu6gchEfxcOTx0EoW5BJV5eRF_Bnk4bgtjkP9Wykzcw-Pt38ZTcEfulFlncYszuSBcC8XSlMGXVHHL4/s16000/2.png" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">I'm excited to see where this journey takes me!

Mason went to lunch with his Nana, NeNaw (great grandma), and some of her friends from her assisted living. They went to Cracker Barrel and had a great time! It was reported back to me how sweet Mason was with the residents and how he's such a good kiddo! Made this Mama's heart so happy and proud! He came home with an iced coffee from 7 Brews and four packs of hockey cards. He was so excited to open them and to show me! One of the cards was Gretzky, so he was pumped about that! </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwnSlsFdpMHAXrCb5Hena57oDgq82m-fhK9L_Q73dIIFaF6Eykr-T7qezzisQLIwcO6RZnHQGz94ZKxal9ZJwthOKDbiA-p5D4fcYoUkVGRNqdlDjj2l08lPOdLax4htv6b-8ujcDm2ep47EJzCuap6Lzk9LKQkvyKgO3ZrfBhiqdIC9q2dc90Vfg-9igW/s3879/IMG_1813.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3879" data-original-width="2909" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwnSlsFdpMHAXrCb5Hena57oDgq82m-fhK9L_Q73dIIFaF6Eykr-T7qezzisQLIwcO6RZnHQGz94ZKxal9ZJwthOKDbiA-p5D4fcYoUkVGRNqdlDjj2l08lPOdLax4htv6b-8ujcDm2ep47EJzCuap6Lzk9LKQkvyKgO3ZrfBhiqdIC9q2dc90Vfg-9igW/s16000/IMG_1813.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">After work, we took Mason for a haircut! We are finally at the stage where he goes every other Friday and it makes me so happy! For a while, he was all "I don't care about my hair" and it was like pulling teeth to get him to want to go to the barber. Now, he's in a good routine, goes to the same lady every other week, and never pitches a fit about it! Praise Jesus for small victories!! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAhFaruGiEUMWtCr_vNnyYPZVz7Atv8FxuqOzLAa7vJaLJreQD3quMMCP4h4enO-0WZwXnNxygTbpkGdZBYeoA_ynxSMRFPNliL5aTWIKl-GggglhzdVzD40JMOkbIhN6MXR2VMQgGdNsnvEK9ezpdWi8ca4uFCVscpdWpNBc8sdH07agzc6UbVztd9cRH/s4032/71166956728__E140015B-CC62-4D30-AEF7-5BC897CDCA9F.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAhFaruGiEUMWtCr_vNnyYPZVz7Atv8FxuqOzLAa7vJaLJreQD3quMMCP4h4enO-0WZwXnNxygTbpkGdZBYeoA_ynxSMRFPNliL5aTWIKl-GggglhzdVzD40JMOkbIhN6MXR2VMQgGdNsnvEK9ezpdWi8ca4uFCVscpdWpNBc8sdH07agzc6UbVztd9cRH/s16000/71166956728__E140015B-CC62-4D30-AEF7-5BC897CDCA9F.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEHsHyULszEK5wtQxv-sDewNdPw8vwE1w9qv_Fx1qE4ld32YBS67MtefpqoYMHFnXcFEDv0_1jq5xeU_LRoNVX31Rocj2pPZi3gzUvK6eZ1NgatpseweYCGLepq_u7wY1aSc6WOZWCxkszjxr7NMnxVKgD-bpTpgWvXj1Zth7RuqDsmyP8LFBsF0KXJMN3/s3890/IMG_1327-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3890" data-original-width="2918" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEHsHyULszEK5wtQxv-sDewNdPw8vwE1w9qv_Fx1qE4ld32YBS67MtefpqoYMHFnXcFEDv0_1jq5xeU_LRoNVX31Rocj2pPZi3gzUvK6eZ1NgatpseweYCGLepq_u7wY1aSc6WOZWCxkszjxr7NMnxVKgD-bpTpgWvXj1Zth7RuqDsmyP8LFBsF0KXJMN3/s16000/IMG_1327-1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_fnvoNHU0B4THDaKHdTUW004Mf8wmOwI_Pi6JwuKCTWoLTile-O6Lb-KiWegFFaAlvASQDwPoo1DV_9jDfJBm1mBioE6d3s3qVVNIpKgU0AzMTNYJhA8_3wQyX6ibmDQGglTOvuJI87mTCuI55I_o252S5SUHctDg1l-7L8uFKWWh2Nm-SHGmT76Obtvh/s4032/IMG_1328_jpg.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_fnvoNHU0B4THDaKHdTUW004Mf8wmOwI_Pi6JwuKCTWoLTile-O6Lb-KiWegFFaAlvASQDwPoo1DV_9jDfJBm1mBioE6d3s3qVVNIpKgU0AzMTNYJhA8_3wQyX6ibmDQGglTOvuJI87mTCuI55I_o252S5SUHctDg1l-7L8uFKWWh2Nm-SHGmT76Obtvh/s16000/IMG_1328_jpg.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Then we ran to Hobby Lobby so that I could get some materials for a project.

It was 68 degrees that morning and giving me a glimpse of early fall! It was exciting. Lexi and I knocked out a couple of miles. I came back and read my Bible for a couple of hours. We didn't make it to church that morning - I knew my boys were exhausted and Nate had been dealing with some allergies. Once Nate got up and around, we went outside to take the chickens fresh water, water our plants, anchor a tree that was leaning, brush Lexi, etc. Then we cleaned up and headed to town to do something fun (more on Wednesday!). Then we went to Kroger to get groceries for the week. We came home and put everything away and made some sandwiches for lunch. Then we hung out and relaxed. I ended up falling asleep for an hour while Nate watched the Ranger game. Then we started prepping lunches for this week and then made supper together. After supper, Mason and I went for a walk. Well, I walked and he rode his bike. We went the long way to Nate's parents (it's a half mile from our driveway to theirs - but a shorter walk if you cut through our back properties and gate). They were outside along with Nate's brother, so we stopped to talk a bit. Mason's PawPaw mentioned that he needed to get the commuter car over to Nate and Mason volunteered to drive it! So he drove PawPaw back to our house and his uncle Ty rode his bike behind them. I finished my walk! It's so weird seeing Mason drive, but I am glad he's getting in some practice. Don't worry, we live in a very remote area and all was safe! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGdpnCMzAO2j06CZrFI3_EHmpHQ06FfW_Pq2mxjbteYzu5ud8pHhNchBloi5LSbp32bQUzBEOv6dQhjbB9gt3tK2_pta4HVEJapZxKNgYbu1FQDpHNELqXymjFLgXgNBxMv8MkZ3D1zJx4mXAczZGD3Zjm-F6G9SBzBx3i8OqM2WxfxMP3Ue5T5H9aPxrd/s3088/IMG_1418.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGdpnCMzAO2j06CZrFI3_EHmpHQ06FfW_Pq2mxjbteYzu5ud8pHhNchBloi5LSbp32bQUzBEOv6dQhjbB9gt3tK2_pta4HVEJapZxKNgYbu1FQDpHNELqXymjFLgXgNBxMv8MkZ3D1zJx4mXAczZGD3Zjm-F6G9SBzBx3i8OqM2WxfxMP3Ue5T5H9aPxrd/s16000/IMG_1418.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjM_0nlzFKVwX3DIJ1B4onfGCcQip-QAqxXJ-oxlPB2hwvLgOiRokm-DkEFjRap6CsKYfxhHZvR1ermcSgLUL4pH6S5BZl5O-EATtcSy8lXuK-9ypjLQRIoGAXBfZ_eVuBoCMZbhfeurPjhUijXwg9Pnz6V4H9--YWWBHj9Dn_2r_HqsVsgNYU-jYToOMW/s2370/IMG_1425.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2370" data-original-width="1778" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjM_0nlzFKVwX3DIJ1B4onfGCcQip-QAqxXJ-oxlPB2hwvLgOiRokm-DkEFjRap6CsKYfxhHZvR1ermcSgLUL4pH6S5BZl5O-EATtcSy8lXuK-9ypjLQRIoGAXBfZ_eVuBoCMZbhfeurPjhUijXwg9Pnz6V4H9--YWWBHj9Dn_2r_HqsVsgNYU-jYToOMW/s16000/IMG_1425.JPG" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #3f3f3f; font-family: "Quattrocento Sans"; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">And that's a wrap on our weekend!

I hope you all had a great weekend. Ours was pretty good, just not near long enough! I did soak up every minute that we got, though! It was filled with good food, family, friends, sports, and Jesus! I love those kinds of weekends. Here's a look at what we did...</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwx7u8biosdu-BqHVLcva96JkipZPS8XtWavb7E2kcWH0uqT-aphpJWNW9SiHlqCIGVbdGzMD2Hsxo9Yu3tgCIiFQwrHy4v83BOhwyB4MIZvSknB2nDTh2Alf7WnotrbHRA7VPYbQuRhFiYBQi2VyL0VbyaaUKqCGG4rdBjklFOmXcYrJop73HcDpvwvFm/s940/ww2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwx7u8biosdu-BqHVLcva96JkipZPS8XtWavb7E2kcWH0uqT-aphpJWNW9SiHlqCIGVbdGzMD2Hsxo9Yu3tgCIiFQwrHy4v83BOhwyB4MIZvSknB2nDTh2Alf7WnotrbHRA7VPYbQuRhFiYBQi2VyL0VbyaaUKqCGG4rdBjklFOmXcYrJop73HcDpvwvFm/s16000/ww2.png" /></a></div><br /><span><a name='more'></a></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><b>Thursday //</b></span><p></p><p><span style="color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Our weekends normally start on Thursdays around here! Nate is off work on Fridays so we usually get out of the house. Mason requested Babes for supper and Nate and I obliged! It's one of our favorites and we haven't been there in a good while! We got there right around 5:05 pm and walked right in! There's no wait when you're an early bird! ha! The food was delicious, as always. After supper, Mason and I went outside. They have the cutest waiting area and this tree just begs for kids to climb it! Mason has been climbing this tree for years! After Babes, we headed to the outdoor malls in Cedar Hill. We are on the hunt for Mason some shoes for our upcoming trip to California. Unfortunately, we didn't find any that he liked. He's pretty picky when it comes to shoes. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbBxe2sHkCjnJrzQYPKkZqvff1TsOZU3QCcu1MwY-vgNUTdRbFR98zbVygxGip14-WH05pdK6MaTjyIpMNyu0LDJ8__2wqjhQM-RETzUrxkfTnmvg0KcH2gVqfcO3J2qx0Du5UC0ORL-2w/s2016/IMG_0894.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2016" data-original-width="1512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbBxe2sHkCjnJrzQYPKkZqvff1TsOZU3QCcu1MwY-vgNUTdRbFR98zbVygxGip14-WH05pdK6MaTjyIpMNyu0LDJ8__2wqjhQM-RETzUrxkfTnmvg0KcH2gVqfcO3J2qx0Du5UC0ORL-2w/s16000/IMG_0894.JPG" /></a></span></div><span style="color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2bv9yR0GO3NgAIZ308NDJGSXf36aY3VweKe-ONemhp17qkN8xmKHM3ZMXOmzTbW0K2YOPmIhO4-hM9NFY4RH3pG0YibiWZBb6cfd-6ImMMxt9eB_OfF_vVYhYPgcAMBUIJRU2pb6DEFqn/s1802/IMG_0896.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1802" data-original-width="1352" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2bv9yR0GO3NgAIZ308NDJGSXf36aY3VweKe-ONemhp17qkN8xmKHM3ZMXOmzTbW0K2YOPmIhO4-hM9NFY4RH3pG0YibiWZBb6cfd-6ImMMxt9eB_OfF_vVYhYPgcAMBUIJRU2pb6DEFqn/s16000/IMG_0896.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO9NIhnyCk5OgOGTwgtcGdYGDUVds0_2yP0aG3B498QDTrwJ-1EkUja3zBDJQfeaNDQ1DvyfrX1BKM21OpeOjByvtAhvZEJIIdqczy5DMnN6J44JfBKpYRPv5ap-iMhY2b36qQm4pvZJHe/s2000/1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="2000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO9NIhnyCk5OgOGTwgtcGdYGDUVds0_2yP0aG3B498QDTrwJ-1EkUja3zBDJQfeaNDQ1DvyfrX1BKM21OpeOjByvtAhvZEJIIdqczy5DMnN6J44JfBKpYRPv5ap-iMhY2b36qQm4pvZJHe/s16000/1.png" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg14PO92riOZK-PpoVYZlt9r4t9lSUm9JeS_dopZDFkrHwOCvpbbWOQ91T7VaPR7H3mcXkbl4cESUnxlC9ncol-qcHRLocfVUiD8rznufz2gVclyMpovKg1cQpp1q-dc5eR4SRk36qbksYm/s2000/2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="2000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg14PO92riOZK-PpoVYZlt9r4t9lSUm9JeS_dopZDFkrHwOCvpbbWOQ91T7VaPR7H3mcXkbl4cESUnxlC9ncol-qcHRLocfVUiD8rznufz2gVclyMpovKg1cQpp1q-dc5eR4SRk36qbksYm/s16000/2.png" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Oh, and check out what the temperature was reading on the way to supper...</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMMp590Vettih3gc0PutxYbLZBI0vvui4Y7_AAAl5fCo_JxJTdbk2XZx6tqB2G123tzdVI7npgaEentNmJRItpF5D30eRPWvvMTTFv90UvcS4tFqvE-uuDUyl8DlIQVrsiI5F0PHu81u0s/s2016/IMG_0893.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2016" data-original-width="1512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMMp590Vettih3gc0PutxYbLZBI0vvui4Y7_AAAl5fCo_JxJTdbk2XZx6tqB2G123tzdVI7npgaEentNmJRItpF5D30eRPWvvMTTFv90UvcS4tFqvE-uuDUyl8DlIQVrsiI5F0PHu81u0s/s16000/IMG_0893.JPG" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Texas is wild!

After the games, they went to the hockey stores there. This seems to be an every-weekend thing for us now. I've mentioned before, but the closest hockey stores are over an hour and ten minutes from us. So when we have the opportunity to go, we go. Plus, Mason has needed several things lately. I can't believe it's been 4 months since Mason's <a href="http://www.hallaroundtexas.com/2023/02/masons-first-rookie-practice.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">first hockey lesson</a>. He has come so far in those 4 months and I couldn't be more proud. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Friday was also a pretty exciting day...Mason is officially registered with the USA Hockey organization and is signed up for fall league!! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Anyhow, Nate and Mason picked up a new professional hockey goal for him to use when practicing at home. They came home and worked on putting it together. Nate got the main part of the goal put together and then took a break. After work, we took a glorious nap. Then went back outside to finish the rest of the hockey goal. That evening we had slurpees for supper! We weren't hungry at all. I think it's this Texas heat! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Mason had academy at 10 am which meant we had to leave at 9 am which meant a 7:30am wake-up call for me. I don't mind it though! I love getting to watch him do his thing.

It's become one of our favorites lately. Then we went thrifting! We found a lot of good things at the thrift store!! Then we headed Scheels to kill some time before heading to our friend's daughter's softball game!! They won and it was so fun to watch Lex play! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSDYHrpdDTIX8zzOldinog-fzMFAVf24L_8tfBh4wk_oRq8q659sZhIY8ggimOqoz9GuZ2RsqVQw82rAgBxFvDZPj-j0rGXTKH4TtnQgaY5-NXfDiEj00eDVddSXDg8PRStC1eKU16-QHTS3XoG5Ijvo5e086MYFoBJwPo3qyGovkPQyOjup7gcfxOxyW_/s3088/IMG_0975.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSDYHrpdDTIX8zzOldinog-fzMFAVf24L_8tfBh4wk_oRq8q659sZhIY8ggimOqoz9GuZ2RsqVQw82rAgBxFvDZPj-j0rGXTKH4TtnQgaY5-NXfDiEj00eDVddSXDg8PRStC1eKU16-QHTS3XoG5Ijvo5e086MYFoBJwPo3qyGovkPQyOjup7gcfxOxyW_/s16000/IMG_0975.JPG" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKd8bwPJx2GTSQb1GuvdSZsAlNkc9OQhmxQIAkNPBXynX60oqTFXuVbtkbBJNCJu2xD0Tj4ROQ3oXHDiNPkg362nleYM-_cXWo87F-eOMn-ErU79CX2WPZhMY3euFP4QxWeIzTPHoLS_J4b4AF-GDzoRnuQzfRi97VxZCsWbMu4nFA1PWaz58F3tZS4oYH/s2016/IMG_0984.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2016" data-original-width="1512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKd8bwPJx2GTSQb1GuvdSZsAlNkc9OQhmxQIAkNPBXynX60oqTFXuVbtkbBJNCJu2xD0Tj4ROQ3oXHDiNPkg362nleYM-_cXWo87F-eOMn-ErU79CX2WPZhMY3euFP4QxWeIzTPHoLS_J4b4AF-GDzoRnuQzfRi97VxZCsWbMu4nFA1PWaz58F3tZS4oYH/s16000/IMG_0984.JPG" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2MchddofM-P5gTFBA3nAkpLCRr4hpmjZ2VDy6JEb6gujc_30cVXe0KRv9GfqzRQKDcTgd9RD717kaa0ObEqTlKZXHFtupXC3usVMGL6elPTm17lxh5df2WRvEF6Mb4PcV4cg0hXB-6sp3J_LeMW0sN5bm5YO-RxHd4gFM0HokATxhGEbG1g9CWwllDYBv/s2016/IMG_0990.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2016" data-original-width="1512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2MchddofM-P5gTFBA3nAkpLCRr4hpmjZ2VDy6JEb6gujc_30cVXe0KRv9GfqzRQKDcTgd9RD717kaa0ObEqTlKZXHFtupXC3usVMGL6elPTm17lxh5df2WRvEF6Mb4PcV4cg0hXB-6sp3J_LeMW0sN5bm5YO-RxHd4gFM0HokATxhGEbG1g9CWwllDYBv/s16000/IMG_0990.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixtooerh7ydncyWgxBEtBf-XWVLjypQ_e1nVHVuDne5dIJYwv_m7O-m-e0WcErv17Dnd1u5a7cwusMKl2ozPGa2Xq4ECSmvICeB5mxEBTg45hLCWDIj_Hmc4avaQADZTYGO6Oms436Q2OEutjCfyt-GJX0kuLZR6HMgUOu7wnYMYo1QhSVXC56xESPg927/s2016/IMG_0993.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixtooerh7ydncyWgxBEtBf-XWVLjypQ_e1nVHVuDne5dIJYwv_m7O-m-e0WcErv17Dnd1u5a7cwusMKl2ozPGa2Xq4ECSmvICeB5mxEBTg45hLCWDIj_Hmc4avaQADZTYGO6Oms436Q2OEutjCfyt-GJX0kuLZR6HMgUOu7wnYMYo1QhSVXC56xESPg927/s16000/IMG_0993.JPG" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><b>Sunday //</b></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Sunday morning we went to the 2nd service at church (10:45). The sermon series right now is Revelation and it was a great message on living for the worldly kingdom or God's kingdom! After church, we ran a couple of errands and then came back home. We made/ate lunch and then got busy doing all the indoor/outdoor/farm chores to get ready for the new week. I worked on my Bible Study for a while in between doing laundry. That evening we got sushi from Bristol. It's so darn good! Then came home and Nate layed down to get rid of a headache, I did more of my Bible Study, and Mason practiced. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif;

Here are five things from our week! </span></p><p><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDIdcqfmnEOc0wU294x4SlRdAYP8_4BgoJQoyGeEvFTMAF9MlMr8rIAyE5LgxKMveETrP68EM2MB6dLZtMg6clIAW7wlJXghT7jR9fO1PSXhkB0dIHsjIxyZcni8dpa5FhjGLBVtxGQGJQFncWWIP6HfHmrlCkQAEyxQba6ybMhl9tE_9fwSXOI_DSKjbb/s940/Five%20on%20Friday%202.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="505" data-original-width="940" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDIdcqfmnEOc0wU294x4SlRdAYP8_4BgoJQoyGeEvFTMAF9MlMr8rIAyE5LgxKMveETrP68EM2MB6dLZtMg6clIAW7wlJXghT7jR9fO1PSXhkB0dIHsjIxyZcni8dpa5FhjGLBVtxGQGJQFncWWIP6HfHmrlCkQAEyxQba6ybMhl9tE_9fwSXOI_DSKjbb/s16000/Five%20on%20Friday%202.png" /></a></div><br /><a name='more'></a><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><b>O N E //</b></span><p></p><p><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">We went to Parent/Child open hockey on Monday! It has been a while since we have gotten to do this! The rink was closed for almost 2.5 weeks and there weren't many times offered before it closed that fit in with our schedule. Mason was excited about two things - to have his dad on the ice with him and to try out his new hockey pants/pads. The other pair he got in <a href="http://www.hallaroundtexas.com/2023/02/masons-hockey-fittings-2023.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Rookies </a>broke and he was in need of new ones. We decided it was a good time to upgrade since he will be starting league soon! They had a blast together on the ice and were both extremely exhausted after. They decided to have a scrimmage with everyone on the ice - adults against kids - and they played so hard! </span></p><p><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVvAmw2-ZWHpPIB_wWcNLt8l4x_piLFaMvH0ud-zGcPizWjdsYgzpRTpFulT7AzUZtv1biQMR1CjISk3L-uIZjmiKnFq1K74h5t7dgvDLotTJxV3I20s3kVZoQvKSfPLcPUIamKAYYNQUeSGC8jAd2lRtENrt14oO4lugvcL3M7ZnC_zD_GOkxyOvqJzEj/s2800/IMG_0169.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2800" data-original-width="2100" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVvAmw2-ZWHpPIB_wWcNLt8l4x_piLFaMvH0ud-zGcPizWjdsYgzpRTpFulT7AzUZtv1biQMR1CjISk3L-uIZjmiKnFq1K74h5t7dgvDLotTJxV3I20s3kVZoQvKSfPLcPUIamKAYYNQUeSGC8jAd2lRtENrt14oO4lugvcL3M7ZnC_zD_GOkxyOvqJzEj/s16000/IMG_0169.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqsYFT0BqZ7N3cMD99seHk9mGTxGMeelDpyenzzTgbTu36CAfo-B9jY4nttwcNGE9c7Fj1iHqwBTwoFEpkkkj0wHN3WftwCxUL-Bcpql4Xtrrrmyo1FgthYUtZX8UDpX2xyipMgMPgmHmKCi1Zbo97Ep4fKqpyDmM7GXRBbIrDbpZgchRNWQh-jGMRVJr7/s2412/IMG_0170.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2412" data-original-width="1809" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqsYFT0BqZ7N3cMD99seHk9mGTxGMeelDpyenzzTgbTu36CAfo-B9jY4nttwcNGE9c7Fj1iHqwBTwoFEpkkkj0wHN3WftwCxUL-Bcpql4Xtrrrmyo1FgthYUtZX8UDpX2xyipMgMPgmHmKCi1Zbo97Ep4fKqpyDmM7GXRBbIrDbpZgchRNWQh-jGMRVJr7/s16000/IMG_0170.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV8_kce97c5n6m-q9ozOolldHKr9emoX6OVfjbMl9l_loxyzko6tllRGfxJTcD1TCyzZMixlrSbGwb1kV-7UpViwfNevm0gkcJ-7ok6GA3MiwKWpF3GpOVJnt98kQ1DrFq0CyC-cy7JaIwRQo5ptR-9VEhBW7ilonkBqokpczO91lMQir96qIHo1X8zUAU/s3840/IMG_0182.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2160" data-original-width="3840" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV8_kce97c5n6m-q9ozOolldHKr9emoX6OVfjbMl9l_loxyzko6tllRGfxJTcD1TCyzZMixlrSbGwb1kV-7UpViwfNevm0gkcJ-7ok6GA3MiwKWpF3GpOVJnt98kQ1DrFq0CyC-cy7JaIwRQo5ptR-9VEhBW7ilonkBqokpczO91lMQir96qIHo1X8zUAU/s16000/IMG_0182.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKH0uQfQMYTS5DEEZWzLyLNu-FXp_gqw2i8QhvfNF65CcUUow3SjTf10XFGwVievRB7RMTh9FUdPuVqdGf9JFD1JcNPMbXf_t8LXi5xka4UjJ-YU5mRo9Q0TxI1V5DuUuUy-OOtGFE5dIAlBnEoXDBSvc3Cb630jOCGUAzElm4zI1ks6-0vAE3ar4h9QTh/s4032/IMG_0202.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKH0uQfQMYTS5DEEZWzLyLNu-FXp_gqw2i8QhvfNF65CcUUow3SjTf10XFGwVievRB7RMTh9FUdPuVqdGf9JFD1JcNPMbXf_t8LXi5xka4UjJ-YU5mRo9Q0TxI1V5DuUuUy-OOtGFE5dIAlBnEoXDBSvc3Cb630jOCGUAzElm4zI1ks6-0vAE3ar4h9QTh/s16000/IMG_0202.JPG" /></a></div><br /><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><b>T W O //</b></span></p><p><span face="Lato, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Fresh-cut sunflowers just make me so happy!!

So from here on out, most Wednesdays will be dedicated to all things Waxahachie. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirAfbnZr6KOxaKG3GIYzrLc1FmJkjuSHlmtixqei6d3OR-sObQdZZoP_nWiXQEkpPfsVf6v-aDYG8679QfBYJgmQNGYHzGQ4QMNbnOQozzrjYl0pFogAhhVsicWxH8wdtLm3Fb3LOF-viPC7PitDVDRn2UsdzYDy2Goz-pCnWVFJl2ew5qJUEbb4o89n52/s940/Hachie.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirAfbnZr6KOxaKG3GIYzrLc1FmJkjuSHlmtixqei6d3OR-sObQdZZoP_nWiXQEkpPfsVf6v-aDYG8679QfBYJgmQNGYHzGQ4QMNbnOQozzrjYl0pFogAhhVsicWxH8wdtLm3Fb3LOF-viPC7PitDVDRn2UsdzYDy2Goz-pCnWVFJl2ew5qJUEbb4o89n52/s16000/Hachie.png" /></a></div><br /><span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br />We love our little town and everything about it (well, maybe not the traffic on 77). To backtrack a little...when Nathan and I were in high school we used to spend our date nights driving out to Waxahachie (about a 45-minute drive from where we lived) and we would drive up and down the <a href="https://texastimetravel.com/directory/gingerbread-trail-tour-homes/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Gingerbread Trail</a> and part of 77. This town was so delightful and we just couldn't get enough of it. Something kept drawing us back to Waxahachie time and time again. Sitting right next to Nate on his bench seat in his old Ford, we would dream about living in a Victorian home one day and moving to a small town. Our absolute favorite was driving the Gingerbread trail during Christmas time! The homes on this street looked so pretty and would always go all out for Christmas. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Never in a million years would I have thought we'd live in this historic little town one day! While we are not in a Victorian home on the main strip, we have us a two-acre little piece of paradise out of the city limits. We loved this town long before we started living here! Just like everywhere else, it has grown a lot since we first moved here in 2007 but I am happy to say that it still has that small-town feel! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">On Waxahachie Wednesdays, I will be sharing about all the things I love about Waxahachie; shops, restaurants, locally owned businesses, events & happenings, historic sites, and all things in between! Waxahachie has so much to offer!! </span></p>Hall Around Texashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10593724546533748783noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714804831096330967.post-15768782605012208312023-07-11T06:30:00.084-05:002023-07-11T16:09:28.613-05:00{Fourth of July Camping // Blue Sky RV Cedar Creek}<p> <span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">This</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"> year for the 4th of July, we camped with Nate's family at Blue Sky Cedar Creek. It's a new RV resort near Cedar Creek Lake. It's just minutes down the road from my family's lakehouses! Two of my aunts, and my parents all have a lakehouse on the same street (4 houses total between them all). And because of this, we got to spend some of the 4th of July weekend with both sides of the family! It was brutally HOT but we survived and had a great time! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-NQDCCEWtZOlwltIDGDG3yLgI87oDbwcpBg1QhT1fFgJisiwAwD9VnwU2azqdGJQ2xbIXt7N_3yAaJLPGDuwVyzDffGtx1S863NCz-Brj662kgFEdQ6X_hy0vyI6hs_AYc2QANJELL--4kOfHZ6UPjnaiLSFw1lP6F98atGme2Ai8q8yVRsfVweIPadBS/s940/Copy%20of%20Ivory%20Simple%20Positive%20Motivational%20Quote%20Ripped%20Facebook%20Post.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-NQDCCEWtZOlwltIDGDG3yLgI87oDbwcpBg1QhT1fFgJisiwAwD9VnwU2azqdGJQ2xbIXt7N_3yAaJLPGDuwVyzDffGtx1S863NCz-Brj662kgFEdQ6X_hy0vyI6hs_AYc2QANJELL--4kOfHZ6UPjnaiLSFw1lP6F98atGme2Ai8q8yVRsfVweIPadBS/s16000/Copy%20of%20Ivory%20Simple%20Positive%20Motivational%20Quote%20Ripped%20Facebook%20Post.png" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p></p><a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Thursday - we drove down to the camping grounds.

We went to eat at Mexican Inn (I didn't take any pictures but it was all so delicious.) We all enjoyed what we ordered and had a great time together. We'll be going back soon! After supper, we headed to the rink to get Mason's ice skate blades sharpened. Then we went to Academy to look around. </span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCwkzOCKYwo-E-sJBQQ9sFU8Jv4DH-IjhUYKp_RB5GV6l6BE5ZvUoMZzr42Zx6dRU1xB4ZcYsTsOZFiRRMyrjyv0M4f8DTAw9loKPdm3lCybYMAvKhabNg46_KkQVD6FPALb8yacLH7MW_t0lI9HLsEupX01wB_4IV1ma9JRZCISIzK1TkoYtScgqhv9mK/s4032/IMG_9850.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCwkzOCKYwo-E-sJBQQ9sFU8Jv4DH-IjhUYKp_RB5GV6l6BE5ZvUoMZzr42Zx6dRU1xB4ZcYsTsOZFiRRMyrjyv0M4f8DTAw9loKPdm3lCybYMAvKhabNg46_KkQVD6FPALb8yacLH7MW_t0lI9HLsEupX01wB_4IV1ma9JRZCISIzK1TkoYtScgqhv9mK/s16000/IMG_9850.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC0lJf4WBGGfnDyny1xXgfIHfp0wqtpjKAOSbM7PLWmLRkctPXX5ARzWQSRGoSLkOMrRION6P_69vDTXJdYjpASL_eXa1ud7vvMk0fRzrgwszhH84r-WCRJOh24dmy2_UviKxWlAA16DA08THCZJs0OcVtFtTbDqeWBaNA8v7DPQjHZehiCVOHX5rA0WKp/s3808/IMG_9851.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3808" data-original-width="2856" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC0lJf4WBGGfnDyny1xXgfIHfp0wqtpjKAOSbM7PLWmLRkctPXX5ARzWQSRGoSLkOMrRION6P_69vDTXJdYjpASL_eXa1ud7vvMk0fRzrgwszhH84r-WCRJOh24dmy2_UviKxWlAA16DA08THCZJs0OcVtFtTbDqeWBaNA8v7DPQjHZehiCVOHX5rA0WKp/s16000/IMG_9851.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaH729af-LiM5LwmrHJcBKqDSiI8WlhxQYFLA9fS7AAXgKKGpV7ac6lgnVxYf6-7WYf_lTVH3Vfb3cesFeeUSL6-XDsadmvEPj4la1lHJmO5fXVowXlqGJgP8jX2sa3ihhYexIcWpXieJAOf34U1HU6U-yiXzW01f90J4X-U7rWnn1qU4yrd6ybKwaug7r/s4032/IMG_9852.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaH729af-LiM5LwmrHJcBKqDSiI8WlhxQYFLA9fS7AAXgKKGpV7ac6lgnVxYf6-7WYf_lTVH3Vfb3cesFeeUSL6-XDsadmvEPj4la1lHJmO5fXVowXlqGJgP8jX2sa3ihhYexIcWpXieJAOf34U1HU6U-yiXzW01f90J4X-U7rWnn1qU4yrd6ybKwaug7r/s16000/IMG_9852.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd667mkiQwClKdPSPf560KrJOACvlAMqiMFF1cpicq-ThzELfXJ_NsX9w0iFs8NLOSeTVxxUJQSPZQAUcVL3rUlF8zxgAh3qu6ztFVtjKrBwqvVec2mWPVKsR6jRo9gkauEk_Gb5IWyVyZvWfZVA-PxqnHR7TwwZ-1tcOfHsoImFf1135q0bxk7Fbo7hDy/s4032/IMG_9853.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd667mkiQwClKdPSPf560KrJOACvlAMqiMFF1cpicq-ThzELfXJ_NsX9w0iFs8NLOSeTVxxUJQSPZQAUcVL3rUlF8zxgAh3qu6ztFVtjKrBwqvVec2mWPVKsR6jRo9gkauEk_Gb5IWyVyZvWfZVA-PxqnHR7TwwZ-1tcOfHsoImFf1135q0bxk7Fbo7hDy/s16000/IMG_9853.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA5-z6hMS54wwKHD_xCKVRIw0xqkXEOnBim4qv1gnguJpFNLbk09V0fCYb_lbVAWZHLe2z3W_A_T_XZ_tlywgzamYjfbvyv_Zqju_0Al-i2Kt19FabrIW51e8LXqGsaUN4ptLraCHbefDeja4Iri2Bh-u7LB0eymYh-SRYRzNtEFlzXtSLPjB6N4B-n01d/s4032/IMG_9855.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA5-z6hMS54wwKHD_xCKVRIw0xqkXEOnBim4qv1gnguJpFNLbk09V0fCYb_lbVAWZHLe2z3W_A_T_XZ_tlywgzamYjfbvyv_Zqju_0Al-i2Kt19FabrIW51e8LXqGsaUN4ptLraCHbefDeja4Iri2Bh-u7LB0eymYh-SRYRzNtEFlzXtSLPjB6N4B-n01d/s16000/IMG_9855.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Saturday - after 2.5 weeks off, the rink was finally back open!

The event didn't start until 5:00 but leadership got there around 1:30 to start setting up. It was a hot and long day, but such a good one! We had an amazing turnout for the event. We had vendors, off-road shops, a DJ, a kid-zone, a show and shine area, and so many awesome giveaways. There were hundreds upon hundreds of Jeeps! I'm so grateful to be a VP for this amazing club! I didn't get many pictures or videos because I was too busy working the event! </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4lJLea0sXicuKNBrRs1492y_LlAwnuWn-QssCtYWmU8U2tsn-nYzwvd0OGLYZzFRPjGkqBh1VNi7wd_vs54Q3FqsFP8OY0IR97diYJb9kKQG_By9KLyKjhwdMl0Ce3qMWLmcohE-AsI88ml4-biN1_st1aqbf0BDI5bN2F5drMINuti5qL7rAAGGfwTCM/s3088/IMG_9958.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4lJLea0sXicuKNBrRs1492y_LlAwnuWn-QssCtYWmU8U2tsn-nYzwvd0OGLYZzFRPjGkqBh1VNi7wd_vs54Q3FqsFP8OY0IR97diYJb9kKQG_By9KLyKjhwdMl0Ce3qMWLmcohE-AsI88ml4-biN1_st1aqbf0BDI5bN2F5drMINuti5qL7rAAGGfwTCM/s16000/IMG_9958.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhobYt27LkSR4wFkVo0LDxqnM1GXj4UwdJYvWjaAC6JeHYjPvbH_RcP_mNVQyLAFOy09qbFoeF9YRZ9a9sYQ66dmJHIYrTllCz0FA5KcTsUNxxc041EQL2YJonfKeLJgeH2041MCO98jmco06-Lacnmfw_Glw-Bz1Vi5Ek4c2SXiEK-CfZuakd8fYQnOfGK/s3949/IMG_9961.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2962" data-original-width="3949" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhobYt27LkSR4wFkVo0LDxqnM1GXj4UwdJYvWjaAC6JeHYjPvbH_RcP_mNVQyLAFOy09qbFoeF9YRZ9a9sYQ66dmJHIYrTllCz0FA5KcTsUNxxc041EQL2YJonfKeLJgeH2041MCO98jmco06-Lacnmfw_Glw-Bz1Vi5Ek4c2SXiEK-CfZuakd8fYQnOfGK/s16000/IMG_9961.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbJAHVx0RQ2nMQNXRqPtF0czwWibK952dqeF8BRtX4-7J6xCp5yR633b0cBc44DJdd_YDdRrSleTnxL3mfLSVHuEUKNAFS4x0FaBudcjTde5gifnZ5-HZdVssoPELB6ZO14kNTHqQs9uTzTl1TgjHPellBeqSTv9E-hUJrQ2_W1FpLen-pxTYWuUZW9yB_/s3809/IMG_9966.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3809" data-original-width="2857" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbJAHVx0RQ2nMQNXRqPtF0czwWibK952dqeF8BRtX4-7J6xCp5yR633b0cBc44DJdd_YDdRrSleTnxL3mfLSVHuEUKNAFS4x0FaBudcjTde5gifnZ5-HZdVssoPELB6ZO14kNTHqQs9uTzTl1TgjHPellBeqSTv9E-hUJrQ2_W1FpLen-pxTYWuUZW9yB_/s16000/IMG_9966.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQsb9Eb3vmPLEjY3JF5ei4Xm5rkAQ1piNxQlltwGJIv3iq6Kl09hkN0q_EXFUgaBeNEbvh-S2a030Y9D0dLTV5oym9iSQa8X29uO9yWtkmGdGPqotCgqhkKSWOv77x6gofYhsF8Ds3O6w_ekpHu32Yv4ejlroXGB-gqrGjXSNyk8Xc3kDhV9Mb_kuXc9CE/s3088/IMG_9975.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQsb9Eb3vmPLEjY3JF5ei4Xm5rkAQ1piNxQlltwGJIv3iq6Kl09hkN0q_EXFUgaBeNEbvh-S2a030Y9D0dLTV5oym9iSQa8X29uO9yWtkmGdGPqotCgqhkKSWOv77x6gofYhsF8Ds3O6w_ekpHu32Yv4ejlroXGB-gqrGjXSNyk8Xc3kDhV9Mb_kuXc9CE/s16000/IMG_9975.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJSrLVI3DkcuSm0pwtcQRH1bo89ECGq2oNxHh7dAIauXRta11WqjG3OB4wsXUDnJHsf0QPnVCCnjM0VfiQ_8wGY8GF1Y32mKFSyg43s8PbBtJEiNS64-b4kDAlN3cKlcSHFO3jkZoAOalWxul2c4W_oUsOgtJQzHaUQmLgjr9Q4ZX-_nxEjsHstcXkclH-/s2152/IMG_9986.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1284" data-original-width="2152" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJSrLVI3DkcuSm0pwtcQRH1bo89ECGq2oNxHh7dAIauXRta11WqjG3OB4wsXUDnJHsf0QPnVCCnjM0VfiQ_8wGY8GF1Y32mKFSyg43s8PbBtJEiNS64-b4kDAlN3cKlcSHFO3jkZoAOalWxul2c4W_oUsOgtJQzHaUQmLgjr9Q4ZX-_nxEjsHstcXkclH-/s16000/IMG_9986.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;">Sunday - we slept in a bit after a very exhausting Saturday!

All of the hockey shops are about an hour and ten minutes from us, so we have to make a bit of a day trip out of it! We started at Play It Again Sports, which is a store that sells both used and new sports equipment. Mason saw a ton of sticks that had "Jones #3" on it. He said, "I wonder if that is Seth Jones sticks". So he asked the cashier and sure enough, it was! Seth and Caleb Jones (brothers) are both NHL hockey players that came from the Plano area. Any time they are back in town they bring their gear to Play It Again Sports! The guys there said they are so down to earth and you'd never know they were pro players if you walked in while they were there. Mason was so excited to hear this and scooped up one of the sticks as fast as he could! He now has an NHL game-played stick from one of his favorite players hanging on his wall! It was his lucky day, no doubt!! After Play It Again Sports, we headed over to Hockey Monkey to find Mason some new hockey pants. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14.3px;
