One crazy weekend!

I had one crazy saturday

My husband knows Ive been stressed because I never seem to do anything fun anymore (and he does all the time) so he decided to surprise me and plan an evening out for us. We went bar hopping on the boat with 2 other couples. He even booked the babysitter!

It was a blast. We cruised the lake, had fruity drinks, jammed with the bands, had great food, then shots, the sang ridiculously bad karoke and left just in time to get back home when we were supposed to. It was perfect.... that is until the motor all the sudden stopped about 200 yards from the dock. Just stopped. At 1am. In the pitch black night. On the water. FUN.

So of course the boys try to play mechanic. My husband is actually really good at fixing things and probably could have had us motoring within 5 minutes had he not been SO ridiculously drunk. They misdiagnosed the problem and made it worse by flooding water into the engine. We were stuck..... and then my husband fell into the table and broke it.

Luckily someone came along on the way and towed us back to the dock. Unfortunately nobody latched the cowl (cover on the motor) and we lost it.  Then my we had to jump in the water and pull the boat into to dock. Luckily i packed towels and extra tee shirts.

Nothing like a drunken adventure. lol. The next morning my husband was hungover. I was fine. Its easier to recover at 32 then 40 me thinks.... and well I have the gift of knowing when to stop.

Sunday was my nephew Tyler's 6th birthday party. I was gone allll day with that too so needless to say my house is a disaster area! I probably should be cleaning it right now :)
