Cousin Day Out

Hubs and I on our way to date night!

He loves Oscar, Kawkie he says.

First stop a Brazilian empanada restaurant.

Then we were off to shop for work clothes for Landon.  My mom and aunt informed me that we have a Dilllard's outlet here!! What!?  How the heck did I not know about this!!??  It was big and they had a lot of clothes, the mes selection was even better than the women/s.  So much great stuff!

He scored big time! 

After a long evening of shopping we met my cousins for drinks and dinner.

A ladder to get to the booze, kinda like a old time library...but better!

None of us were ready to go home so we bowled a few rounds.

The next day we all decided to go paddle boarding.  Even Bella.

He found his true love, not sure what it is so we're just gonan call it a shleeze board :P

Natalie was a little terrified at the fact that there had been alligator sightings.

I was scared to death cause I'm not the most athletic person, and I had cold and the water was freezing, don't really like gators either.  To my surprise I did really well and was quite proud of myself.  I've heard paddle boarding can be a great workout and I'm sure I burned some calories but I wasn't sore at all the next day so that was kinda a bummer.

Little Bella did quite well for her first time, I was even more proud of Natalie.  She kept her cool,  I would have been really annoyed with Neely acting a fool I think.  Bella cried and whined and fell in a couple times but that's good for her.  It will make her a well rounded dog.

Derrick finally go to try this bad boy out.  This was the employees personal bike and it was expensive but he was nice enough to let us try it.  

Yes I tried, scared the crap outta me but it was sure fun.  It's made to do 360's so you don't flip but it sure feels like you might.  This was one of the best days, my heart was full getting to spend time with some of my favorite people and paddle boarding was amazing!  I have found a new hobby, luckily we have full lakes and both are only a few minutes from our house!
