So, this weekend has been absolutely beautiful! It has been warm, sunny and finally no rain!! I hope ya'll were able to spend some time outside. Here is a little recap of our week...
I worked all week and Mitch worked all weekend ha! I have been so busy at work and by the time I get home all I want to do is go to sleep ha. I haven't made any new or good dinners lately because I am just too tired when I get home.
I had mentioned earlier, my work bought me a gym membership, so I have started going there after work and I really like it. I had a free session with a personal trainer and I actually really enjoyed it. So Mitch and I decided since they are paying for my membership, I could work with this trainer on a regular basis. I am really excited. I work out with her once a week and then the rest of the week, she plans out my workouts and meals for me and puts them on a clipboard in my box, so every time I go to the gym, I have a check sheet I have to go through. Its so nice to have my workout panned out for me. I am new to this type of workout, so having it planned out for me, makes it easy! I met with her for an hour last week and went over all my goals, etc and so she has planned these workouts just for me. I am kind of nervous because in order to reach my goals I am going to be doing very little cardio and a lot of weight lifting. I have never lifted weights in my life an you could def. tell in my first session ha! I am so use to doing only cardio at the gym... so this will be a change, but I think it will be good for me. And I like having someone that knows what their doing guiding me.
Tuesday night, Mitch did make a delicious dinner! He grilled out steaks and veggies! I love grilling out our own steaks!
I also made a new salad that we had on Easter. Michelle's mom made it and it was so good! I loved it and you can make a big salad and eat on it throughout the week!
You chop up a whole head of iceburg lettuce and cover the bottom of a 9x13 pan and then cover it in sliced green onions and peas. Next spread mayonnaise over it all and sprinkle about 1-2 tbsp of sugar over it. Then cover it with shredded cheese and real bacon bits. It is so good!
Friday, I had an event but got home by 3 and Mitch worked. That evening, I ran in a 5k that benefited Bentonville Public Schools and it was a lot of fun!
It was a big race, over 1,500 people ran.. and for only 5k that was so many people! It took us forever to get started. The first 1/2 mile we were pretty much just walking b/c it was so crowded. I ran with a friend, Sam, and we had a lot of fun!
I love the atmosphere of races! I wish Mitch was able to run it with me.
Saturday, Mitch worked and I spend the day being lazy. I have not had a day/weekend to relax and not do anything in over a month, so I took advantage of it. I slept in, caught up on all my tv shows, and spend most of the day laying out on the back porch. I took a book and just spend all day out there! It was in the 80's, and perfect day to be outside. I also rented Burlesque! I love the soundtrack and have been wanting to see the movie for forever, so I thought while Mitch was working it would be the perfect time! It was good and I recommend it if you haven't see it.
I also watched the Thunder game, and I could not believe the ending... :(
That night after Mitch got home, we went to dinner at Texas Land ad Cattle. We had never been there and so we decided to try it... Mitch got steak and I got a wedge salad that was amazing! We will be going back there more often.
After dinner, Will and Caleb came over to play video games... fun ha! So I watched them play and then I headed to bed.
Today we went to church and then headed to Fayetteville for the day. Will had a bike race at 3:30, but Mitch and I went down about 1:00 to just walk around downtown. We walked all over and actually ran into the doctors I work for. We were able to hang out with them for a little, and then we watched Will race. I got some really good pics, but for some reason the ones I took with my actual camera, and not my phone, won't upload to my computer.
We got home around 6 and decided to go play tennis. We haven't played in forever, but it was fun to get back out there. I never thought I would say this, but it actually made me kind of miss it.
Tonight, we are relaxing and trying to get ready for tis next week of work. We are watching some of the shows we recorded and from last week and right now we are watching the Voice. I am obsessed with this show. If you haven't seen it, you should def. start watching it. Its so good!
Mitch and I both have a pretty relaxing week, so I am excited about that. I hope ya'll have enjoyed your weekend and have a wonderful Monday!
