{Jessica Kick Backs}: And Has The Best Weekend Of Summer

I should add: so far.  :)  This coming weekend is shaping up to be pretty wicked-awesome, as well.. 

I didn't get any pictures from Friday night.. we just went out for dinner with friends and hung out.. it was the perfect way to start out the weekend.. :)  

Saturday morning we were up bright and early to clean out our little trailer..  We sold it.. :(  Well, it's not all  sad, but we had some awesome memories in that little trailer this summer, so it's a little sad.. We drove up to Wetaskiwin to deliver the trailer to the guy who bought it; it was a lovely morning for a road trip and Bronze was even lucky enough to come along.. ;)

The reason for the selling of our trailer (well, part of it and I'm hoping it's not a bluff.. ha!) is that Tyler has hinted at the possibility of getting a boat next summer!  Which leads me into Saturday afternoon...

We got to hang out at the lake with our friends.. and their boat.. :)  It was amazing.  I don't know what made this afternoon so special.. This wasn't my first time on a boat.  Nor was it the first time hanging out with these friends.  But everything just clicked for an awesome day on the lake and I can't even describe why.. so I'll just shut up and let you look at the pictures.. :)  

{All pictures taken on my phone.  Clearly I need a better phone.  Mainly because it will have a better camera.  And I'm lousy at remembering my regular camera.  Plus I heart one device that does everything.}

Squinty eyes!  But such a gorgeous day!

Tyler getting suited up to go for a wakeboard!

cruisin' Alix Lake :)

hadn't wakeboared in two years.  still killed it.  the man amazes me.

skurfing!!!  I had tried this once before 3 years ago.. love it now as much as I did the first go around.. 

seriously so fun

aaaannnd then  Scott shows up and demonstrates for us how it's really done {sans rope & right in the wake)

why don't I kneel down, too?

body surfing :)

so fun.

Sunday was equally awesome.. :)  I'm pretty certain Sunday's are my favourite day ever... 

After a wonderful Sunday morning meeting, we met my aunt & uncle, cousin and hubby and their kiddies for brunch at Rusty Pelican.. oh ya and my ma and pa were there too! :)  Excellent food and excellent company!

my little cousin ben.. such a ham.. i love this guy.. 

triplet birthday!  these girlies will turn 12 in september, but we celebrated early cuz they'll be headed home to DK soon!

gang's all here

ben's bday is 2 days before his sisters.. seriously.. isn't that crazy?  

 After gospel meeting, the triplets came over to our place for supper and we had a great evening.. I made them our favourite recipe, Korean Beef and then we went out for Menchies after..  When we dropped them back off at home, Aunty Bev was just making a huge batch of popcorn, so ended up staying another hour out there.. had some good laughs over popcorn & ginger ale..  It was the Tobler's last night in Canada, so we said our reluctant good-bye's that evening and now we are planning a trip over there.. to all my family reading this, are we down for a Pearman Family Reunion Denmark 2015??  I think so!!! :)

cute drawing & stamp craft + chocolates from the triplets.. they're adorable.. :)

Well, that was the weekend in a nutshell.. It was the one of the absolute best of this summer and I'm sad that we do not have many of these left.. :(  Fall, hands down, is my favourite season and to be honest, I've never really been a "summer girl"... but this year... I don't want summer to end.. sigh.. I'm thinking a trip somewhere hot (but cheap) this winter might be necessary.. who's with us?? :)

Until next time!
