Happiness is being married to your best friend!

My best friend, my husband!

Evening Stroll
This week was rough. The constant rain and humidity also made it rough. But we survived. The rain has stopped. The humidity has dropped. Ahhhh deep breaths!
Last night John and i walked around downtown Huron and along the pier. In town they had a band which lots of people were gathered. Bikes lined the lake front and a crowd of lawn chairs filled the area. The air smelled of boardwalk food.
The pier was busy with locals and tourists. The bars were busy and they too had live music. The pier was covered in debris from all the rain. The river leading out to the lake was like a wave pool. People were still walking with their family and pets. Some brave souls even rode their bikes and scooters around all the sticks.
We enjoyed the peacefulness of the sunset and people watching. Cedar point was so easy to see in the night sky.
Sometimes it’s nice to just take a walk, breath fresh air, and remember all we are blessed with!
Grill master Johnny
Who needs to attend the expensive Rib Burn off when your husband is a master on the grill. He made brats, turkey burgers, plant based burgers, bruschetta chicken burgers, corn on the cob, baked potatoes and asparagus! He spoils us ladies!
This weeks menu from the J & J Diner!
Ok this first delicious wrap is actually from Heinens. How good does it look!? It was actually really delicious. The wrap was not gluten free so i only ate half and John took the other half for lunch. It was turkey, cheddar, bacon and honey mustard wrap with some lettuce, tomatoes and onions on it. Highly recommend!
Monday night we grilled pork chops, potatoes and asparagus on the grill! The flavor was so great with a little bit of seasoning and some Stubbs BBQ sauce on top!
Wednesday night we grilled turkey burgers and zucchini spears! So simple yet so flavorful!!!! I love grilling season 😂
Thursday night my husband prepared some gluten free fresh cheese raviolis (shoutout to Heinens), turkey kielbasa, zucchini and tomato sauce. He told me he was laughing as he made this because turkey kielbasa does not go with ravioli but you know what i thought it tasted great! He should know never to question my craziness 😂
Competition!
Hooray we were finally able to compete after a long year!!!! My twirlers have been back in the gym twirler since last June, but this was the first time they were able to perform in person for others. Wow were they amazing. I am so happy they finally got to show off all their hard work!!!! We didn’t have all our normal family and friends there. First competition my parents weren’t at 😔. They kept all the teams in separate rooms while we waited our turn. We had our own lunch table. Everyone had to wear masks but the twirlers could take them off while performing. They rotated families in and out of the gym while their children performed. It moved pretty quick and i felt really safe.
Ohio is confused
Is it winter? Spring? Summer?
It seems to be all the seasons every week. We go up and down 30 degrees every other day. I’m ready for summer!!!!!
Last week we had a super warm and beautiful day so my husband and i hung out at my parents and enjoyed some time at Lake Erie. It was an absolutely gorgeous day!
After a few more very cold days, Saturday afternoon decided to warm up to 70 with the sun shining down on us. John and Jimmy to the boat out to get it ready for the season. Valerie and i went for a nice long walk in the metro parks!
Sunday night was cold and rainy but we grilled out on our new grill! John made a pork loin, catfish and potatoes. It was delicious and worth sitting in the cold!
3/24/21 was a big day!
Mammogram and COVID vaccine all in one day!? Man i was adulting hard and for once i admitted i was 40! Phew glad that is over so i can go back to being 25!
But in all seriousness the mammogram was super quick and painless. Fingers crossed i don’t get called back!
The vaccine was painless but OMG the anxiety building up to it. I’m not afraid of shots and i fully trust the doctors and scientists with this vaccine, but my last 2 vaccinations i had allergic reactions to. Ugh was it terrifying but i never even felt a pinch! John and i had super sore arms for 24 hours but that’s all. Now I’m sure we will get sick from the second shot but hey sick for a day is better then being on a ventilator in the hospital!
Mosquito Lake Fishing
Today headed east and fished at Mosquito Lake state park. It was a beautiful day out but yikes was the wind COLD. We only fished for about 2 hours. We caught lots of little crappie and 1 blue gill. We didn’t have anything to bring home but we had a fun day!
Lake Erie Sunset
This weekend we took a road trip up to Marblehead and East Harbor to fish. After dinner we watched the sunset from the dock at Catawba! It was beautiful!!!
Perfect ending to a long day
Working two jobs in one day is exhausting but i am lucky because i love what i do. I nannied all day and then coached baton twirling all evening. I came home to my husband cooking pork chops and asparagus. So fresh, healthy and delicious. After dinner we put our feet up and relaxed. This beautiful moon was the perfect sight to see just before heading to bed. Always be grateful for what you have and live in the moment!
