We had another super fun Galentine's Weekend at the River! It is probably best summarized by V's reel. Feel free to check it out!
Grandma, Lorel, Ella, Eve, Katherine and I showed up first and we decorated the house and unloaded our good food. Then we watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which we hadn't seen in years. We found it to be pretty funny!
As soon as V arrived after work we had pizza for dinner. Rudy's is under new ownership and is a bit different now, but was still good.
The girls decided to challenge themselves to a polar plunge, but only Katherine brought a bathing suit. They considered going in their clothes or skinny dipping, but never fear- Grandma's old bathing suits to the rescue! This turned into a funny fashion show! (I have plenty of video clips. Haha, blackmail?) They added cute glow-in-the-dark heart glasses and other accessories for the fashion show. My favorite was a bathing suit skirt, which could have worked as a bathing suit. We had some clever ideas for it, right girls?! Ok, I am being cheeky. Eve fashioned it in a much more appropriate way here. It was a frigid February night and the water was freezing, but they did it!
Pretty hilarious to watch them challenge themselves to get to the depth they had planned (past shoulders, but their heads didn't have to go under) and then to run out, up the hill, and all together into the bathtub/shower to warm up! Haha, they accidentally pulled down the curtain rod.
Lorel brought and prepared fun mocktails- strawberry dacquiries and shirley temples! Yum!
Grandma brought lots of chocolate covered strawberries!
Eve prepared and directed a bunch of fun Valentine's games! Thanks, girl! They were fun and led to a lot of fun discussions too.
We had a chill morning. For breakfast we had fruit and yogurt parfaits with yogurt that I made in the instant pot. Then, we went on a walk and looked at a cool house down the creek from us (intended to be a bed and breakfast) that is for sale.
Great weekend!
