On Friday night, Dave and I went out to have fun our tenth marriage ceremony anniversary. We went to the RH Rooftop, which I had been to as soon as earlier than with mates. It’s an extremely beautiful setting on prime of the Restoration Ironmongery shop, and we loved ourselves absolutely — reminiscing about our final 10 years of marriage and even what’s to come back sooner or later. Need to know one factor we’re certain we wish to do extra of over the subsequent 10 years? Journey!
(The jumpsuit I wore had been hanging in my closet for 2 years with tags on it. I purchased it for a cancelled journey to Vegas in March 2020 and was ready for the fitting time to tug it out. It’s not obtainable any longer, however here’s a similar version from the identical model. And listed below are my trusty heels I’ve been sporting quite a bit recently.)
However a bit bit concerning the RH Rooftop — outdoors of how cool the scene is, the costs are ridiculous, and we’ll solely ever return for a really big day. For our meal, we cut up some shrimp cocktail and an enormous burger with fries, and it was all scrumptious and lots for 2 folks.
Enjoyable reality: After we completed dinner on the RH Rooftop, we walked over to P.F. Chang’s and sat on the bar so I might get an enormous slice of cheesecake at an inexpensive worth. I loved each chew of it.
The following day, we took Brady mini {golfing} for the primary time at Excessive Seas in Fort Mill, South Carolina (solely about 10 minutes from us, as a result of we’re near the state line), and he had a blast.
(I”m sporting this basic white tee in a small, and listed below are my new denim shorts, that are high-waisted, and I’m in love. I’m sporting a measurement 4 in them, however I’m usually a measurement six in different manufacturers.)
We had been speaking about this for some time and eventually made it occur. We didn’t actually comply with the foundations or hold rating throughout mini golf, nevertheless it was nonetheless an incredible exercise for him. It was tremendous scorching, and there was no shade, however I’d positively take him once more. We plan to take him bowling subsequent. And whereas I wouldn’t usually select these weekend actions, it’s so cool to get to expertise all these little firsts with him. He’s so into all the things new.
We additionally went to the pool twice over the weekend, as soon as simply by ourselves for a late-afternoon swim and as soon as with practically all of our neighborhood mates for an enormous Memorial Day pool celebration. I do know I say this on a regular basis, however I’m so blissful we’ve got good mates and so many household pleasant actions to maintain us busy and entertained.
And at last, Dave got here again to my barbell class on the vacation, which makes me more than happy. Subsequent up, he must strive my Shred class, as a result of I’ve a sense he’ll like that one quite a bit as a result of it has cardio in it, and that’s his most well-liked type of train.
Aside from all the issues reported above, I additionally went to tennis, took my automobile to the seller for service and drove round a loaner for a number of days, did some chores and work and we lastly selected the stone for our kitchen venture — yay!
