Mr. & Mrs. Lemich: Summer Shenanigans

This summer has been a total party and I am sad to see it coming to an end. In Texas reality, summer weather is just beginning, but in the Lemich house I feel like summer is ending. On Friday Mr. Mike started his new job. I knew this day would come, but I am terribly sad that it came so soon! I absolutely loved getting to spend the last 3 months together every single day. I need another 3 months of fun before he starts work! Here is a glimpse of the past 6 weeks in Texas: a lot of swimming, running, and working out. A lot of dog walking and trail hiking. A LOT of shopping: shopping for house things like a washer/dryer, furniture, vacuums.. shopping (looking) for a place to live, buying Mike an entire new wardrobe, shopping shopping shopping. Some golf, some biking, some cooking new recipes, some family yoga, some movie going, some tv series watching (we watched the whole mini series of Fargo and loved it! Now we just started The Walking Dead) and some more shenanigans.

Oh P.S... Mike is officially a Texas resident now :)

Oh P.S.S... Mike is on business training trip in NYC for the next 2 weeks. So when I said Mike started work and I acted like I would never see him again, I pretty much meant it. At least for the next 2 weeks anyways.

The day we arrived in Texas

oh you know, just cutting off our foreheads

We love bahama bucks. Oh how I missed them while living in Utah

Fourth of July swimming and tailgating for fireworks with David & Sarah. Ignore my manic expression

I just realized Mike is wearing his USA jersey in like every picture. He did wear it many times during the World Cup, but I promise we did wash it.

Hiking around the Lake Ray Roberts Green Belt

I have been dreaming about the day I would get a Dyson for years. In our 2 years of marriage we went through 4 vacuums. Lets pray this vacuum lasts for a while!

Hiking around Lake Grapevine

Mike and Akina are now the best of friends. She follows him everywhere

We were kind of unintentionally matching for church

Golfing with the boys

an example of shenanigans

fetching stick in Lake Lewisville

(I wasn't about to swim in that part of the lake, but Mike is a brave soul)

Checking out Mike's new work

He is actually super excited to start his new job and put his mind back to work

never ending walks with this pup

We accidentally started a new tradition this year: Christmas in July. So, last year for Christmas grandpa wanted to take everyone out to dinner at fancy steak house as our family Christmas present. Well we finally cashed in on his offer- six months later. We went to Bob's Chop and Steak House at The Shops at Legacy in Plano. The meal was definitely worth the wait! We had fun walking the shops and around the pond after. We all had a fun night and really enjoyed ourselves.

more shenanigans

I love love love seafood. So even though we were at a steak house, I order the Parmesan crusted gulf red snapper with garlic scallops, served with sun dried tomato couscous, asparagus, pesto and crumbled pancetta.
