surprise long weekend

I didn’t even realize that this weekend was a long one, until Saturday night when Michael “reminded” me that he was off on Monday. I am either a really poor listener (totally possible), or Michael is already getting old and forgetful and never told me.

I’m going to go with the second option. Yep.

Anyway, we had a wonderful, relaxing couple of days. We even got to spend some time with our friend Katie, who we haven’t seen in awhile (and I failed to take a picture…whoops).

We had a great Sunday at church! On the way there, I just kept chanting “BFFs!” to Kaya, and she thought it was hilarious. Hence this picture:IMG_20140119_085515 Afterward, Michael even took Kaya out with him for home-teaching so that I could nap. I think he wins the best husband award.

We had some glorious weather on Monday (50 degrees say what?)! Jax enjoyed his run but was obviously still energetic afterward. I love that Border Collie energy!IMG_20140120_135737 We had our first dinner date out in a long while. We went to Olive Garden (thanks, Karl!), and although I was worried about how Kaya would do at a sit-down restaurant, I was overall very impressed with her patience. She loved the breadsticks (but I think she liked picking the croutons out of Michael’s salad even more…)IMG_20140120_204530Happy 4-day week! 🙂
