We had a busy weekend! Friday afternoon when I got home from work I heard a noise. My sweet hubby was working hard.....cleaning our carpets!!! He rented a carpet cleaner and cleaned the whole house!!! My hero!!!
That afternoon I had a ton of errands so I let him do his thing. I had to take Sawyer to gymnastics, go to the bank, and go get a birthday present for a birthday party Sawyer was attending on Saturday. When I was at Target in search for a gift I came across this: Caramel Macchiato Candy Corn!!! Some of my three favorite things...coffee, caramel, and candy corn...all wrapped up in one! It is pretty yummy I must confess!!!
By the time I got done with my errands and picked up pizza for dinner it was time to go get Sawyer from gymnastics. Then both boys were staying the night at a friend's house. So after dinner I took them to their friend's house. It was around 8:00 when I got home and by then Andy was done with the entire house except for one room! I'm so thankful for such a hard working guy!!!
Saturday morning I ran my long run. Then I took a short walk to cool down. I'll tell you more about my run on Wednesday.
After showering and coffee, Andy and I took advantage of having no kids with us and headed to Sam's Club for some necessities. I saw these yummy strawberries and HAD to buy them! After my run Sunday morning I ate some and they were amazing!!!
Then it was time to go get the boys from their friend's house. I brought them home and fed them lunch. Then I was on the go again....this time taking Sawyer to one of his gymnastics team mate's birthday party. It was a Minecraft theme and his mom did an amazing job with the decorations!!!
While Sawyer was at the party Andy, Hayden, and I all went to Target. Hayden has some birthday money that he wanted to spend. He bought himself a Lego set and was a very happy boy the rest of the day!
Later that night we went to eat Mexican for dinner. On the way home there was a beautiful sunset! I tried to take a picture while in the car (Andy was driving not me) but it was pretty blurry. But you get the idea!
I guess beautiful sunsets mean a beautiful sunrise the next day! Because the sunrise during my run on Sunday morning was gorgeous!
Sunday morning we went to church. Then the boys went over to their friend Maddy's house to play. I swear these boys have a busier social calendar than I do lol! But I'm thankful they have friends! While they were playing, I went to Starbucks with Kirstin (Maddy's mom) and her Mom! Fun!
Later that night I went to my friend Lora's house to hang out and watch one of our favorite tv shows!
Now it's time for the Weekly Chase! It's a new week and I have new goals to achieve! I hope you will link up your own goals with me too! And feel free to use the badge below in your post too! You can grab the badge HERE! :-)
Here are my goals from last week!
- Goal #1: Run every day! Yes! I made it to day 450 this week!!!! Can't believe I've been streaking that long!!! So thankful!!!
- Goal #2: Roll, stretch, and ice daily. Yes!
- Goal #3: Maintain my weight by logging my calories. Yes! I logged everything this week!!!
- Goal #4: Finish my September calendar for work. 50%. I am half way done with this.
Here are my goals for this week!
Goal #1: Run every day! I am planning to keep my streak alive of course!
Goal #2: Roll, stretch, and ice daily. Gotta do this to help prevent injury!
Goal #3: Maintain my weight by logging my calories. I am so determined to not gain any weight back. The key for me is being aware of everything I eat by logging my calories.
Goal #4: Finish my September calendar for work. Gotta get this finished by Tuesday.
Goal #5: Get in at least one strength training workout this week. I did better this summer with doing a little strength training. But since school has started back I have slacked. Maybe just a small goal of at least once a week will help. It's better than no strength training at all right?
Goal #6: Write a note about Sawyer. My son Sawyer got picked as Student of the Week at school next week. One of the things I have to do is write a note describing him that will be read to the class. :-)
