Memorial Day Weekend!

We had a very eventful 5 day (yes, 5 whole days with hubs!!) weekend! ^_^ I'm so glad that he got this time to relax and hang out with us. He's been working so hard at work lately so it was nice having him home for 5 whole days. On Thursday, we went to his squadron picnic down by the base lake. It was the 2nd time we've been to it since we've moved here. We went the first year we were here, but skipped last year bc I was super preggo and it was so hot outside that I didn't want to be out in it. lol  It was still super hot this year too. I was sweating to death 10 mins after we got there lol. But I think Liam enjoyed himself. He loves being outside. I can't believe that this time next year when we go, he will be running around all by himself =O

Friday, I spent the day shopping with my sweet friend Shaira, since our husbands decided to spend the day fishing. Then we went over to our friend Esther's house later that evening for dinner & yummy desserts for her birthday!! =) 

Saturday was an adventure! We decided to make a trip to Hot Springs, a nearby town that we've been wanting to visit for awhile now. We stopped at an alligator farm first and I even held a baby alligator! Liam got to feed some goats and deer, and he even petted the baby alligator. I swear, this boy isn't scared of anything (well with the exceptions of strangers lol). 

Had to stop at Chick-fil-a first to have lunch and share an ice cream cone with daddy ^_^

Next, we went to the Hot Springs mountain tower. We decided not to go up the tower since it was opened air and we didn't want Liam to get all that wind (secretly its bc momma was scared to be outside up there lol). But we did get to get some pretty views from the bottom of the tower.

After that, we went to the Garvan Woodland Gardens. There's this beautiful chapel there that I've been dying to visit ever since I saw it on Pinterest ^_^ It's called the Anthony Chapel. It's absolutely gorgeous. These pics do not do it any justice! If you ever get a chance to visit Hot Springs, AR it's def a must to go see this beautiful chapel in person. I wish I had brought my Nikon with me on this trip, but we left in a hurry that morning so I totally forgot it. These iphone pics will just have to do =)

The rest of the weekend was spent relaxing at home =) Hubs finished building my ladder shelf!! I'm so proud of all his hard work. This was his first big project (of many more to come im sure!) and he did such an amazing job!! I can't wait to paint it!

Hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend like we did! =)
