Wednesday with the Hubby

So most of you probably know that I work on the weekends and am off on Tuesday and Wednesday. The biggest drawback to this is not having a day off with Jon. Usually we've got something or another going on each month where we have a couple days together...usually it is related to going to someone's wedding, or a holiday or something. We don't have too many days to just hang out and be normal anymore, so Jon took off this past Wednesday so we could just chill. After a quick trip to take Kaiser to the vet and some yummy breakfast tacos, we headed into Austin and were planning on having lunch at the Trudy's near campus. We were disappointed to find out they open at 2pm on weekdays...Bummer. So we went to Hula Hut instead which was great and included a tubular taco! Then, we kept debating on whether or not to got to Barton Springs, so we killed some time and went to Whole Earth Provision, one of our favorite stores. I picked up a token new pair of Reef flip flops...they have the best selection there. Then we said what the heck, we're down here, let's go to Barton Springs. We got changed into our suits, got our spot all set up and Jon had just jumped into the freezing water when we heard thunder and they made everyone get out of the water! We stuck around for about 3o minutes hoping they would let us back in, but it kept thundering. Bummer!! As soon as we left it started pouring cats and dogs...so at least we didn't get soaked. The funny thing is last time we went to Barton Springs last year it poured down rain on us too!
Barton Springs minus the peeps


So after leaving, we decided to head home and go to our neighborhood pool, but of course the sprinkles followed us home...which isn't a bad thing, but darnet, we wanted to swim! Our day together was finished off by having dinner at the Hartnett's house and that was a great time like always with them. Thanks for taking the day off Jon...I miss just getting to hang with you like normal for a full day and it was a nice treat!
