Life Lately - Weekend Edition

It's Monday and you know what that means...weekend recap time. We were running crazy and packed in a million things into two short days, but I am not complaining. It was another picture worthy weekend spent with family and old friends. 

I love doing these posts each week because as I write and upload my photos, I am reminded, yet again, how lucky and blessed I am to have a close and loving family, strong core of friends and pretty darn amazing life in general.

So, this is what went on in our little bubble over the weekend.

Logan starting the weekend off Friday evening with some fishing at Ross's family ranch. This girl will hook her own line, cast it out and reel in the fish all by her lonesome. She definitely takes after her dad and does it well.

She woke up early Saturday morning and caught this 5 lb. bass in her PJs. She wants to mount it and hang it in her room. Can you say die hard?

 Then we have the other one who doesn't have much patience for fishing yet, but is all about going on the hunt for turkey feathers. She insisted this be her hair accessory for the day.

Saturday night we headed to Houston for a high school friend's wedding shower. It was great catching up with so many people that we haven't seen in awhile. It's always a good time when you get Alvin folks together for a party. 

Except when you have to listen to the guys bitch and moan about their bean bag position in Corn Hole. I am more of a washer kind of girl, but ended up playing along with the boys. Ross and I took a few teams out and are the reigning corn hole champs at the shower. Have you ever played this before?

Thanks to my blogging BFF, Angela, for the inspiration to knot my maxi dress. I wore this to the shower and some several guests looked at me kind of funny, but I like the twist and plan on doing it more often. Have you ever knotted one of your maxi skirts or dresses?

After the shower and a few margaritas, I needed a late night snack. So, this was the night's winner. Between four of us, we finished off this bag in no time flat. I will warn you, the corners of your mouth will be raw after eating them, but it's oh, so worth it. These chips go down in the books! Thank you, once again, Target.

We ended Saturday with a friendly not so nice, game of Battle of the Sexes. Talk about a waking up the neighbors with arguments. Holy heck! The boys were worse than the girls and the questions we had to answer were beyond unfair.  How am I supposed to know who Rocky Balboa fought in the first match of the Rocky movie? Seriously? Really though, this is such a fun game and I actually learned a thing or two.

Then came Sunday Funday. There is a fun little water park down the road from Ross's family ranch called Splashway. If you live in the Houston area and have a family, this is a great place to camp or go for the weekend. Nothing like the sun, water slides and a lazy river to wrap up the weekend.

 So, how was your weekend? Did it involve any fishing, showers, competitive games or pool time? Whatever it entailed, I hope you enjoyed yourself as much as we did. 

Cheers to a great week! Make it count!
