The Weekend!!

First, I want to start with last weekend! Mountain Man took me rock climbing for the first time. I am not a fan of heights, but rock climbing is something I've always wanted to try. So, with Mountain Man's encouragement and training I did it! I didn't climb very high. It was a lot to take in at one time. I learned how to bligh in five minutes from a young boy, and up the wall I went! It was really scary! Apparently I still have a lot to learn along with gaining confidence : ) Then, we went to a hookah bar and a movie! It was an eventful day!

This weekend we went to Mountain Mans dads house because his sister was in town. I had never met her before, but we clicked really nicely! Friday night we had a family cookout with his dad, D, Anna, Elizabeth and Corky. Mountain Man is always put on grill duty. After a long day of work he gets to sweat by the grill too. : ) We built a fire later that night, and stayed up talking.

Saturday I went back home and got the dog and some clothes for the rest of the weekend. We hung out by the pool for the day, and went out to a yummie seafood dinner that night! Unfortunately, I had eaten a steak lunch, so I wasn't too hungry at dinner. I was STARVING at lunch time though. lol. Mountain Man gladly split dinner with me because he wasn't too hungry either. It was still delicious and I got to take some home! Again, we built a fire, but we went in and watched a documentary on Bee's. It was really interesting....I still have to finish it because I was so sleepy from spending most of the day in the sun. Oh, I almost forgot! We walked to the club and got dessert!!! I was sooooo full.

Sunday we went to the club in the morning and got iced coffee. I was still in my jammies wearing shorts my mom gave me that said "Cherokee women kick ass" on the butt. : / So, Anna and I got our coffee and went back home after a few snooty looks for not being dressed to par. Woops! Then I watched church from the house. Even though I was 5 minutes away from the church and had every intention of going to the early service. Everything happens for a reason because I got to talk to Anna a little about why I like my church, and my journey of coming to Christ. We ran and got lunch for Mountain Man and Jose because they were working all day. Mountain Man works so hard. As much as I hate to see him working so hard, and exhausted most of the time I'm glad he is so motivated.

Then we had a tennis lesson! Anna had played growing up and I was just starting fresh. Our coach was great! She was young and made it fun instead of intimidating. I will gladly go back and take another lesson from her. She said I was pretty good! wahooo! After melting in the sun for our tennis lesson we went to the pool. Still, it was so hot we just lounged IN the pool. I got some nice sun though. We went back to get ready for another family cookout with D's family. I got to go with Mountain Man to deliver a bench that he built. I wish my camera was working because it was soooooo beautiful. I love his work. The family was so glad to have it too! After working all day he had to go back and manage the grill. : ) He enjoys it, just not all the heat! After Dinner and Rango it was time to go home for the work week.

I will charge my camera because next weekend I'm going to meet Mountain Mans grandmother in NC along with some of the family I already know! I already know I'll be hiking to see the sunrise and playing some tennis. !!! Yay for another fun filled weekend! : )
