Birthday + House Boat Fun

We kicked off the birthday celebrations Thursday night for dinner out at one of our favorite restaurants...

Stephen was excited, yet a little "iffy" about the house boat stay I planned for us. He worried about the details like having the right weather. I told him I had no choice, I planned this about a month ago so I had to hope for the best weather possible. It ended up being one of the most gorgeous days of the summer, we could not have been any luckier! 

We met up with some friends boating Sunday afternoon before residing back at our home for the night. Once we got back we wanted to enjoy one more swim before cleaning up.

Obligatory canonball. This picture cracks me up! 

Of course I did not do a cannon ball. I played it safe and just jumped and screamed.

Boat snacks were fresh guacamole dip {mouth watering amazing} I made in just a few minutes.

 Yep, we ate the chips straight outta' the bag.

It was still really hot sitting on the porch below, so we headed to the roof! I assured my parents that the roof is in fact, made for company. 

The built in ladder gets you up there and then you get to enjoy pure bliss. 

Curly hair gone wild! It was just the two of us so these shots are the only version we have.

Warning: if you get bored with pictures of sunsets, you should not read any further. The highlight of our night was watching this incredible sunset though, so hopefully you will take a peek! ;)

The sun sinking low...

We planned an easy meal for dinner: homemade pasta salad and brats on the grill. We wanted to enjoy as much time outside as possible, which ended up being the perfect plan. Later on, another boat nearby shot off fireworks, an unexpected treat! 

To cap off the night, we made s'mores! 

And we were up at sunrise the next morning. Major feat for myself.

It was such a fantastic getaway and we are already planning the next time we can do this again. 

Thanks for reading along for our little adventure! xoxo.
