Wonderful Weekend!

One of my favorite things about living in Houston is that Galveston beach is just a short drive away! Jared and I took a short day trip over there on Saturday, and it was awesome! We stopped and ate at Buffalo Wild Wings with Chad and Dennis close to Friendswood, then continued on our way to get some sun!

Perks/highlights of the trip:
1. Got a sweet, free parking spot on the beach (since Houston is so crowded and the traffic is so bad, I've become a lot more appreciative of things like this haha)
2. Got to relax and read on the beach with my sweet husband :)
3. We got to walk down The Strand in downtown, they had really fun shops/art galleries/ice cream parlors...definitley a spot I want to take friends/family when they visit! *hint hint* ;)
4. Got to try an awesome place called The Spot for dinner and watch the Cowboys vs. Texans game...although I'm a little bitter about the outcome. haha I still have hope for the real season game!
5. We got some old records to play on our record player at an old bookstore...Mary Poppins, We Are the World-Africa relief, and some spanish music since we're going to Spain in a year!

Downer of the trip:
I got stung by a jellyfish for the first time ever! I asked Jared literally not a minute before "are there jellyfish in here?" when I got stung. I now really hate jellyfish, but it stopped stinging after awhile so we were good :)

Sunday was relaxing and so was Monday...Jared stayed home from work so it was nice to have him around the house for an extra day! He wasn't feeling the best, but he's on the road to recovery :)

Last night we got to eat dinner with Jared's Grandma, she is so sweet and SUCH a great cook! After some Skip-Bo playing we left, it was fun! (if you don't know what that is, don't worry, I didn't know either haha)

Anyway, all this to say that the Lord has been so good to us and we've got to enjoy His creation and the people He's placed in our lives so much! we miss you all in dallas/college station/wherever!
Hope you guys enjoy your week!
Steph :)
