We had the best weekend, well minus all the rain. I couldn’t ask for a better man, well I could but he would just require more attention than the current one does, and I am strapped for time as it is. J
On Saturday, we took the LONG ride to Rock Island State Park. The ride could have been shortened by about 2 ½ hours but I refused to spend any time on 40 if I could find another way. The ride was really cool. I love to ride back roads in places that I have never been. Rock Island was really neat and we will be returning there when Taylor gets back from visiting her other family this summer. The picture of Taylor and Brandon above was taken there. We also stopped to eat at a little place called Marcy Jo’s. It was really good.
Sunday was reserved for the river bank. We hauled in chairs, food, coolers and the grill only to have to haul it all back out when the rain only got worse. I just knew that it would pass relatively quickly but it did not. After using Taylor as a mule for the day, she slept for about 14 hours that night. We had to wake her up the next morning. We never wake before she does.
Monday was spent at Natchez Trace State Park. We had our leftover grilled hotdogs and we just warmed them up and had a picnic. Of course it rained again but we enjoyed ourselves all the same. When we got home on Monday night, Brandon and I didn’t feel well. Both of us spent Tuesday with upset stomachs. He brought me the prettiest flowers home last night. I feel really lucky to have him most days. He spent time this weekend teaching Taylor to swim and she did really well. We were also really proud of the way she acted at Rock Island. No complaining, she just got right in there with us and climbed the rocks even when she was scared to death.
I am super excited to go see Sex in the City 2 this weekend with my buddy Sarah. Taylor will be gone to my sister’s for the weekend. I plan on getting the housework done this week and spending Saturday and Sunday doing absolutely nothing. I can’t wait!!
