Labor Day Weekend

This was my first 3 day weekend in… like 5 years. In the past I could move my schedule around to have multiple days off in a row, or I worked from home and could do whatever I wanted anyways.

Now, I remember how great 3 day weeks are.

FRIDAY

My weekend started on Friday with Pizza and Beer at Mellow Mushroom in City Place.

After dinner, we walked down to the water. All the times I’ve been to West Palm, we’ve never walked along the water.

It was really nice just sitting and talking.

SATURDAY

Saturday, I was up bright and early for College Gameday! I was SO EXCITED to watch football! We watched a few games laying around the house before going to a friends house for a beer tasting and dinner.

UGA Football

You wouldn’t believe how much trouble we had to go through to get the UGA game on. Cory didn’t doesn’t have cable, and ABC wasn’t available in his area.

We cracked open Honey Boo Boo while we were there, too. We tried Honey Boo Boo {Hunahpu Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout} and Honey Boo Boo’s Mom {The regular Hunahpu}.

We drove 4 hours one way for this beer, and I really hate to admit this, but I didn’t think it was that great! Good Yes! But not worth the hype. Sorry Cigar City!

SUNDAY

Sunday was laid back. We went to lunch at Rocco’s Taco for the first time.

The rest of the day was spent relaxing, grilling, and Jenga.

MONDAY

Our friend Karl smoked a couple Pork Shoulder. And it was SO GOOD! I miss smoked food.

Holly made Drunk Watermelon {Watermelon, Mint, Sugar, and Vodka}

Karl made some really good spicy BBQ Sauce.

Holly also made Fried Ice Cream with Bananas Fosters. I was so full from dinner but managed to eat every last drop of this stuff!

Labor Day (4)

They went all out with dinner!!

After dinner, we played more Jenga and enjoyed the storm.

Labor Day (3)

It was nice listening to the rain from the screened in porch.

We came home early Sunday with full bellies and were in bed before 10. It was a long weekend.

Right now, me and Oopie are watching Contraband.

Oopie likes the movie.

He also thinks Mark Wahlberg is hot. He can’t take his eyes off of him as you can tell!

Well that was my Labor Day! Now I’m off to bed. Good Night!
