No work, all play....and some home improvement.

Ryan and I took some time off from our jobs, we were able to take ten days off total. The last ten days have be great, no work and all play, almost. Oh, how I loved being able to sleep in, wear jeans and tee-shirts everyday, and spend ALL day long with my cute husband of mine! It really was so nice to get away from the normal routine of life and get stuff done that we never have time for. We started our vacation with some boating, probably the last time we can go this year before the fall. Even though the weather was kinda cloudy the day we went.....the water was glass....and it was great. I have now discovered that it is way fun outside of the wake!

For LABOR DAY,

we went up to Wellsville and went to the founders day parade with my cute family.

Cute Aunt Connie and Tommy.

*Happy, Happy*

Ready, set.....get that candy!

THE SHAM BATTLE

Wellsville, Utah

FREE WATERMELON! I love free!

HOME IMPROVEMENTS!

Our fireplace, just a little bit bare, don't ya think? (Excuse all the tools.)

Ta-da! We now have a mantle!

Oh, and Ryan made it! He did such a great job! I can't even wait to put up fall decorations on it! AND the fan in the middle of the room is new too....we never had any kind of light in our living room, just lamps, which never gave out enough light. A new light was much needed, and BONUS...add a fan to it....I'm so happy! Plus, we added 4 other light fixtures throughout the house....to update the old fashioned ones we had. They look so much better! There is so many things we want to do, it feels like it is never ending. I am so happy I have a husband that can do everything....it saves us lots of money. I love my Mr. fix-it so very much.

PEACH DAYS!

There's my cousin Tommy!

My work buddies!!

STAR WARS.....WOO-HOO!

Yes, I am kinda a Star Wars nerd, thanks to my brother Jeff! When Episode 3 came out forever ago, we waited in line at the movie theater for 9 hours for the mid-night show.....we had shifts of course, I was there for like 3 hours, then Katie come and waited for about 3 more hours, then me and Jeff met up with Katie and we waited the last couple of hours together.

CAR SHOW!!
My father-in-law cars.

68 Vette

Pretty, pretty!

I love when we get to ride in his cars, people are always looking and pointing at us. And best of all, they are FAST......

55 Chevy

This car is my favorite....every thing was restored. It was Ryan's dads first car, he dated Ryan's mom in it, and both him and Ryan fixed it up together (father and son bonding time).....so it has lots of sentimental value. It's so pretty and it wins lots of metals.

MORE YARD WORK.....

But, there is a light at the end of the tunnel! All we have left is to put in the pipe for the sprinkler system, level the dirt and put in the seed.....and hopefully next spring, we should have grass!! Happy day!!

Our back yard after we cleared out the ugly weeds.....

My hard-workers.

Our ten day vacation is over now, but we got SO MUCH DONE! Most of all, I loved to spend every waking hour with my Ryan. It seems that we would drive each other crazy, but for some reason, the more we are together, the better we get along. I just love him so much.
