This was the first semi normal weekend we’d had in about 6 weeks!
At the end of April/Beginning of May we had finals, then Chad went to Spain then we went to Austin and this weekend we just got to be!
So I got to revert to my favorite summer weekend activities:
Friday nights during the summer we usually stay in being so tired from the work week. We made yummy salads, had whole grain bread and olive oil, wine and spinach pizza. MA FAVVVV!
Saturday activities that I love in the summer involve a combo of a short run followed by swimming laps in the pool. 4 miles…CHECK! 45 minutes of laps…CHECK!
I read magazines, read some of Tina Fey’s book, Bossypants
Watched a little DVR
Watched some E!
Vegged, napped, had a smoothie, did laundry
On Sundays we sleep in, eat breakfast on the couch, go to Starbucks, watch some TV, pool time, lounging, I have another workout.
Mavs/Heat Finals game
Usually Sunday lunch involves cold sandwiches and fruit!
Family time happened….
Summer weekends like this are my idea of perfection and after having one that I hadnt had since August…I realized getting back in certain routines is just like riding a bike 🙂
Next weekend I will be crazy busy running errands and packing for Chicago….I may even treat myself to a pre vacation Pedicure 🙂
Oh and get my hair did 🙂
But for this weekend I got to enjoy what summer is all about: being outside, enjoying life and being with loved ones!
Oh and my super sweet boyfriend did something he never ever does on Friday…he got me flowers for absolutely no reason other than he loves me 🙂
Receiving flowers just because are the best kind to get :). Glad you got a relaxing weekend in!
Sounds like a perfect weekend to me 🙂
Your weekend sounds perfect!!
