Pretty Downtown & Pretty Uptown

We've had a short staycation this week. Hubby was off for two days, so I asked if I could have some vacation time. Gorgeous weather on Tuesday! Sam had a day off and no school for Max so we worked in the yard. Happy guys--- ;p We pressure washed, trimmed hedges, waxed a car, took a trip to the dump (got the '54 started for summer), and all the sticks got burned, whew, it was fun to work together and to see so much get finished. Patio furniture is out and clean, bring on the sunshine!

On Monday and Tuesday nights we had extra teens stay for dinner. Fun times, for sure. Blake gets a call when we grill chicken for chicken caesar salad, it's his favorite. Levi, Dylan and Dakota stayed for BBQ burgers the next evening. I'm going to need a Costco run again, they wiped me out. It's great to have them.

On Wednesday it was time for a field trip. Hubby and I went shopping in Burlington and Anacortes. Max had a soccer game against Anacortes at four, so we had a nice day to shop. We had lunch at Johnny Carino's, love their spinach and pecan chicken salad. It's nice to shop downtown Anacortes and I love the eddie bauer outlet store in Burlington. I had my quarterly rewards burning a hole in my pocket.

The game. Can I just say, it was pretty uptown. We got a program, that usually is not the case. We had bleachers to sit on, again, usually not the case. And a gorgeous view of the bay. Nice. And the kicker, LCHS JV team won. We sat with old friends and had some good laughs.
