Weekend Recap (a lil late)

I slept funny and my neck feels like I got hit by a car.  I didn't though, the weekend wasn't that much of a blur, but it was a blast.  And it was exactly what we needed.  Most All of these pictures are instagram repeats, but here's a little recap of what we got into!

You ever have those friends you see planned functions for a handful of hours and then you leave and don't see each other again until the next function?  Yeah, us too!  This time we grew a pair and decided to get together on our own, and to make our weekend together the planned function.  In this case, Ben's BFF growing up's (stick with me) little sister and her adorable boyfriend are our planned function friends.  Well, at the last wedding we decided we'd had enough and agreed to plan a weekend to get together.  We booked that shit TWO MONTHS out (having a calendar that busy makes me feel like a grown up) and this past weekend is when it all went down.

On Friday we had some HHH-ish shenanigans complete with chips and bean dip and cheese and crackers and Bran filling mason jars with tasty concoctions.  Oh and we ate a real dinner too, that's when you know it's a special occasion.  Lotsa laughs were had and a shitload of twang came outta some Virginian men's mouths.  Apparently when they drink they get more twangy, I'll have to remember that.

Saturday morning we had a nice slow wake up and showed them all around town.  Yeah town.  We don't do cities, call us rednecks if y'want.  We ate breakfast at the local diner and then took them over to the local gun shop, you know, the necessities.  After recovering from our breakfast comas we headed to the shooting range for a little bow action and truck sittin'.  I call it the country club, makes me feel rrreal fancy.  We got a little sunburnt and decided to remedy that with a BYOB dinner at the local Italian place, followed by dessert at the greatest little ice cream place on earth.  Shortly after, the food coma ensued and we all got swallowed by the fluffy couch.  Pretty much a perfect end to a super relaxing and much needed weekend.  Needless to say, we can't wait to hang out with our friends again, on purpose, not by accident at a wedding!

Moral of the story?  Life's too short not to spend time with people who make you happy.  So the next time you think, "Hey honey, they seem fun!" act on it and ask them to come over for drinks.  You never know when you might end up with some unlikely friends.  Friendships, like any relationships, take effort.  You get out what you put in, blah blah blah.  Insert any cliché you want, but they're all true.  If somoene's important to you, make them a priority.

Be happy.  And laugh, a lottle.

Ps. I went to spin class again on Monday morning and my lady parts say, "Ouch."  Hurts so good.
