Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, but Cyn could careless for it! It's always a great when she wants to surprise me with a yummy start to our day!
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it starts your metabolism after a night of fasting. It's always a great way to start your day in a healthy direction!
After breakfast we took Bela for a great walk and then over to Pam & Pete's to swim in the pool! She loves the pool, and even more when Cyn holds her like a child!
Haha I couldn't resist taking a photo shoot! After a great afternoon in the water we headed home and got a lot of chores done around the house on Cyn's first school night of the year! She made delicious Steak Bombs and we watched the movie 42! We had a great day to end our amazing summer!
Tuesday my sister and I went for a beautiful 16 mile bike ride! It was a nice change of pace and great time spent with my sister! Sometimes our schedules get so crazy that we have a hard time getting together but it is so important to MAKE time!
Later I had an amazing opportunity arise. I was asked to be te new dryland Trainer for the Seals Swimming Gold Team! I am so excited for this chance to work with kids in improving their physical fitness to reach their swimming goals!
We used vegetables we bought from the Farmers market to make delicious salads! There is nothing better than FRESH veggies!
After dinner Mikayla and Brayton stopped by for a glass of wine to celebrate there opening of Maniac Crossfit this week! We are so proud of all the hard work they have put into making this dream finally a reality and wish them the best of luck! Check them out on Facebook at:www.facebook.com/ManiacCrossfit
We got them a special cake to celebrate saying : " Congrats You Maniac "
Tuesday morning I enjoyed an hour hot yoga class to get my day started! There were only 2 of us in class! It was a beautiful start to my day!
After work I went for a 20 mile bike ride from South Portland to Scarborough and through Cape Elizabeth! It was a great evening for it!
I'm not sure why it's in Spanish haha!
Wednesday I went to SJC practice and was able to finally get my COACH juices flowing! It was really good to see them play and give out constructive criticism! Coach Dodge and I were able to participate in the fitness part of practice! I really regretted not having my cleats though! Oops! We've got such a great group of girls and they said some of them read my blog, so if this is you, I'm so proud of you and feel so lucky to be apart of your season! :)
My mom and I even got in a 24 mile bike ride! We are training for the Lighthouse ride coming up next weekend! I love this woman so much!
After our ride one of my best friends from high school came for dinner! She is living in New York but came home for the weekend! It was so nice to spend some quality time with her!
Cyn made a delicious Zucchini casserole!
Thursday morning I got in a wonderful hour of hot yoga before work! I had a busy day at work, followed by a long drive to Gillette Stadium for the Giants vs. Patriots preseason game! Cyn, my parents and I all headed down after work! We hit some traffic but finally made it and had a great time!
We had a great time and stayed in Mansfield for the night! Patriots won 28 - 20.
Friday morning we got up and headed back to Patriot Place to do some shopping before heading home! My all time favorite store is down there called Charming Charlie. It is such a cute store! It has clothing, jewerly, bags and hair accessories categorized by color! I love it!
We headed home around lunch time and got stuck in some traffic. We got home around 4 pm! We were pretty tired by the time we got home! We went to pick up Bela from Cyn's parents and ended up enjoying a nice relaxing evening with them!
Saturday morning I was up before 6:30 and conquered a killer run to get my day started. It's been a few days since I've run as I have been tryin to put in a good amount of mileage on my bike!
I did a total of 4.37 in 37:26 was pretty happy with my splits:
After my run Connie and Erin came over for some coffee and we went and checked out a few yard sales! We didn't find anything worth buying but it is fun to look around sometimes!
We grabbed some lunch to finally celebrate Erin turning 30! Gosh do I feel so lucky to have her as my best friend! Isn't she gorgeous? Love you E!
Around 1:30 Cyn, her parents and I headed to NH to pick up our pellet stove! It definitely made me feel like an adult/homeowner! What 23 year olds spend a couple thousand dollars on a pellet stove?... WE DID! And I know it will be well worth it!
Thanks to Pete, Cyn's brother we were able to put it right in the bed of his truck!
Once we got the 400 lb stove inside we Cyn and I got ready to head up to Freeport for the Summer Concert in the park with Joshua Radin. He has the most beautiful acoustic voice ever. If you haven't heard of him look him up! He sang Ellen Degeneris' wedding song.
They had to cut the show short because of lightening. But we had a really fun time!
Sunday morning Bela and I took a beautiful 2 mile walk together around the neighborhood! Then we went to my parents for breakfast! My mom made blueberry stuffed French toast. It was to die for!
Then we headed to the Sea Dogs - Field of Dreams game!
After we went to celebrate my cousin Meg's 22nd Birthday! She's so cute! Happy Birthday Meggie! We Love You!
