This past weekend was fun, but took it out of me. I have been busy the past three weekends so I haven't been able to sleep in any and getting up at 5:30 every day during the week was catching up to me. It was one of those weekends where I had so much fun, but when I look back it is like a blur. It feels like we have so much going on, and I don't think it helps to know that for the next several weekends we are super busy. I just looked at my calendar today and we do not have a free weekend where we aren't traveling or having guests over until January! It wears me out just thinking about it ha :)
But a little more about our fun weekend...
Friday Mitch and I both had to work. I usually don't work on Fridays, I can go in if I want, but these past few Fridays I have been so busy! That evening for dinner, we went out with Mitch's parents and grandma to Bone Fish, which is always good.
Michelle and Will got in town Friday night, so we all stayed up late visiting. Saturday morning, Will got up and went and rode while Mitch, Michelle and I headed to crossfit. We had a crazy hard workout, but were able to work in teams, and Michelle and I killed it! I am still suffering today, but it was a lot of fun.
We got home about 11 and had one hour to get everything ready.. it was Peanut's 2nd Birthday Party! Yes.. we had a birthday for Peanut. She is a part of the family and well it gave us a reason to celebrate! We had the AR game on, Mitch cooked out burgers, and we had more snacks and dips than we could eat!
And yes, of course we had to have snacks for the dogs too...
Michelle and I made goodie bags with all kinds of treat and I found the cutest idea online for dog bone treats...
You buy the large milk bones and dip one half in plain yogurt and then cover them in sprinkles and tie a ribbon around them.
Didn't they turn out so cute?? We had to clear out my whole freezer to make them ha :)
And here is the birthday girl and all the guests getting ready to enjoy their bones!
It was a lot of fun and I think the dogs liked it too :) Overall we had 14 people and 7 dogs over that day. Crazy!
Saturday after the game, Michelle and I went shopping, and of course stuff for Christmas!! I can't wait to start decorating the house!
Sunday was a very special day, Mitch's grandma got baptized! Mitch had to work and was really sad about missing it, but we have lots of pics! We are all so happy for her!
Sunday afternoon, Will and Michelle headed back home, and then I was out! I was so worn out I took a 2 hour nap and could of slept a lot longer.
Tonight we are relaxing and watching the world series. I usually like baseball, but for some reason I just didn't get into it this season. But I am still cheering on the Cards. I have been raised a cardinals fan... my dad and brother love the cardinals and go up to st louis once a year for some games. We are hoping they pull it out tonight!
Since Mitch and I have started crossfit, we have also picked up the paleo diet. I was first introduced to it when I started my job last Feb. My bosses live by it and then several months ago when Michelle started crossfit, she went on it and now she loves it. Mitch and I have slowly incorporated paleo ideas in our meals over the past few months, but never were that strict to where thats the only thing we ate. Well we are going all out this time and are really excited about it. I will do a post more about what it is soon and share some really yummy recipes we have already made! It can be super hard if you dont plan and find good meals with variety. You have to get creative, because you are not allowed to eat so many things. A post about that to come!
Have a terrific Tuesday!
