I just finished catching up on the last few posts, and they were so fun to read. I just love hearing about your lives and I receive so much encouragement from them.
I love Thursday nights, they are the end of my work week and Justin is gone playing ball hockey so I have the house to myself. I'm sitting here thinking of all the things I can get done and projects to work on tonight, but I'm pretty sure that once I end this post I'm going to grab some ice cream from the freezer and watch a show.
This week has felt hectic because we were gone all weekend backpacking and got back Sunday night, and even though I didn't work Monday, I spent that whole day cleaning up and organizing from our trip and getting ready for class that night. We had a great time on our trip! Parts of it were tough, like at the end of the first day when my feet were killing me and my legs were sore from hiking and carrying our gear all day and we still had a few hills to climb...no my best moment, but thankfully the terrain was less rough the next two days and taking Tylenol sure helped! The scenery was so beautiful and I really enjoyed just being with Justin. I think the time alone together was something that we really needed. This past summer was really busy for us and we didn't see each other a lot during the week with work and school, and then the weekends were busy hanging out with others, so we didn't get much one on one time.
You might have seen my album on face book, but here a few that I didn't post:
This photo of the two of us is on fb, but I just had to post it again because I just love it, it sums up how the weekend was good for us and I like how you can see our backpack straps.
Oh, and guess what?! (Amber already knows) but I am coming to Seattle in December! My parents are going to be there for Christmas, and I'm planning on being there just over 2 weeks. At this point I'm thinking of coming from the 8th or 9th till the 26th. I would love it if we could all get together!
Yay! We definitely need another get together! Man my husband always talks about wanting to go backpacking with me and I think he is crazy ha but you make it sound not too bad...other than the sore legs. i think i might complain a bit if i was on a trip like that too... I'm so glad you had a nice time even if you had to jump.back into life again right away! Love your pics!
ReplyDeleteI loved all your camping pictures! I agree with becca, though the hike may have been hard you made it sound awesome ( my shoulders hurt when Paul and I go on walks so there is no way I could carry a huge backpack too!). So glad you got an evening alone too, I love hanging out with Paul and look forward to every day together but I do love my mornings and evenings alone when I get them!
