Weekend Wrap-up

So this weekend was really nice since Dan was off all weekend. We had been planning on spending this weekend together just the two of us for about a month and a half since it seems like our lives are going 100 miles a minute and two completely different schedules. So our plan was to just spend time the two of us all weekend. That worked out well on Saturday but ended up being time with family on Sunday which turned out alright. 

Saturday we went to the Oregon Garden. Dan had never been there and it had been years since the last time I had gone so we decided to go somewhere new. We have been enjoying going on new adventures and trips together for the past couple of months and it seems sort of like our goal for the summer to explore new places together. The day actually turned out to be decent. It was cloudy but not super hot, which was nice since there's a lot of walking involved in the garden. We first took a tram ride all around the garden where someone explained about each different individual garden and about how everything works. Then the two of us just walked around and took pictures and talked. It was a fun, relaxing, and enjoyable day. We went out to dinner just the two of us and then went home and played cards and relaxed the rest of the night. 

Sunday we went over to Dan's parents house for his dad's birthday party. There were probably around 20 people there. It was fun but a little overwhelming at the same time. His dad enjoyed it though, which is all that matters. After hanging around over there for a couple hours we went and visited my family and talked for a little while. By dinner time we just wanted to go home and relax so we spent the rest of the night together just hanging out. I miss him so much when he's gone all the time so I cherish the time we have together. 

Now we're counting down the days till Sunriver when we get 5 days off together and can just relax! we haven't had that many days where he is actually home five nights in a row to sleep in his own bed in probably 4 months. I am so looking forward to our trip and spending some time with dan and my family.
