Buffalo Burgers and Grocery Shopping

Because of our schedules, Mark and I NEVER get a full day off together where it is just the two of us. One of us is either working or we have kids.

But not this week! I had the last couple of days off, and at the last minute Mark was able to get them off too. Short of us being out of state together, this was the FIRST time in almost a year of marriage that we'd had one full day off together alone - let alone two in a row! I almost didn't know what to do!

Thursday we decided to make the trek up to Reno to check out the new Cabella's . It's Mark's most favorite store and it was fun to see him excited about finally getting to go. They have a small but really good cafeteria in the store where we decided to eat lunch. They sell all sorts of game like elk sandwhiches, buffalo burgers, etc. I opted for a safe cheeseburger, but Mark ordered the Buffalo Burger. Turns out it doesn't really taste much different than regular beef. After we ate we wandered around the store and took pictures like we were tourists!
It was a blast! Even if you aren't a big hunter/fisherman/outdoorsman it is a cool store to wander around for a while.

Friday we didn't have any big plans other than just getting to hang out together. We went grocery shopping (yippee...) and spent the rest of the day at home. We've been talking for a while about moving the kids to the bigger bedroom and decided it was a good day to do it. It took us almost all day - sorting through junk, moving furniture and cleaning. It still isn't all the way finished but it feels good to have gotten so much accomplished.

The two days were really a gift of time that we are really grateful for!
