Another perfect day

Saturday was wonderful. We got up early, watched tv and had a lazy morning, met up with Stephanie and Carolyn for lunch, went hiking with the dogs, then Carolyn and I floated around in the kayaks, and explored the island across from the house.

I chose the inflatable kayak because it's just ridiculously comfortable, so if I'm not actively kayaking, it's heaven. Darcy made frozen drinks and Carolyn and I relaxed on the water while Stephanie and Darcy took it all in from the lawn chairs.

I was still a bit sore, and we all got in the hot tub. I never get tired of having a hot tub. Stephanie went to the store AND offered to cook dinner which was a very nice treat for me. She made Mojito Lime Shrimp, corn on the cob, asparagus and edamame salad. Oh yeah, there were 2 kinds of chicken too! It was all delicious.

We had dinner outside, and then we were all feeling sleepy, so the girls went home to watch a movie and Darcy and I watched some tv in the house.

It was active, relaxing, full of nature, beauty, fun and friends and I loved my Saturday.

At one point, Carolyn stopped and said, "Now THIS is the life..." Yes it is...

Sounds lovely! What a great day.

That's Jack's saying, too: "This is the life!". It always makes me laugh. Most recently, he was eating ice cream after playing in the splash fountain on yes, a sunny Sunday afternoon.
