Bryan and I have never been the type of couple that plans, on their calendars, specific "date nights". We just do stuff together. Well, last night when he got home from work, we finished putting the metal corners, that we had made, on the hay wagon. (see "New Toy" for more information).
I think they look pretty amazing.
After that we went down to the pond, built a fire and roasted some brats for supper. Then we took the hay wagon out for it's maiden run.
It is a sweet ride.
Good thing Bryan keeps the trail mowed otherwise we would have drowned in wild sunflowers. Don't even get me started on how much those things drive me crazy! They take over everything!
As we got toward the end, Bryan asked me to drive because something was making a weird noise and he wanted to see what it was and try out how the ride was. I tell you what, this is not a view that every woman wants of herself! But that is life. On with the story.
We finished the ride, which was extremely fun and a bit hilarious since it was just us two, and then decided to get the catfish equipment out and go down to the pond. It had cooled down a bit and the coals were still burning away from our supper so we just added some wood and fished by the fire. Perfect. When we first added the wood to the coals, it was very smoky and Bryan and Mae were over looking at an annoying family of muskrats. I happened to catch that and the sunset all in this picture, which I love.
Sometimes the best times are the unplanned, unscheduled, at home, just being together times.
It was a great date night.
