As I was finishing up work I snapped this shot of Downtown Portland!
After work I had a training session and what a beautiful day for it! We did 40 minutes of cardio and 15 minutes of body weight exercises & stretching!
We had a relaxing night at home with my favorite dinner - EGGS & BACON! Yum! Our favorite show started back up as well so we tuned into The Voice!
Tuesday was a chilly morning! We snuggled up with our hot cinnamon hazelnut freshly brewed coffee and started the pellet stove! I decided it was a perfect day to incorporate some hot yoga so I went to Greener Postures for an hour of hot vinyasa flow! Just want the body needed! :)
It's really starting to look like Fall! I took this picture outside one of my accounts!
After work I had 2 training sessions! One with the WCC after school program with Kindergarteners, First Graders & Second Graders. It was my first experience trying to teach kids at this age and it was NOT easy!
Directly following this I had my Dryland kids. We were outside and it was extremely cold! We were all bundled in sweatshirts and sweatpants!
I came home exhausted to a yummy dinner of Chicken Caesar Salad! I got a call from my mom and we headed over for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies and Pumpkinhead! So delicious!
HUMP DAY! It's Wednesday and it means another busy day! It was a much colder day, but still beautiful! After work I had soccer practice! We had 8 girls show up and boy did that feel like a miracle. They all have such great attitudes! We did a lot of work on defending and they really started to get the hang of it! From there I headed home to work with one of my clients! We had a great session and the weather was perfect as we were both sweating! I really love working with her and watching her progress!
Cyn made dinner and we booked our flights to San Antonio, Texas for the week of Thanksgiving! My sister will be graduation from Army Officer Training that Tuesday and we wouldn't miss that for the world! I have been dying for a vacation and the timing couldn't be more perfect!
We both had a sweet tooth tonight and went and got the stuff for home made Tapioca Pudding! We went to Cyn's parents to make it and share, which turned into Pammy making it and us just visiting! It was so yummy! We even added bananas!
Thursday was a busy day at work, but I managed to muster up enough energy to get in a 5 mile run.
After I headed to the WCC to teach a fitness class for the 3rd and 4th graders! They were so fun to work with; very eager to learn!
After I had my Dryland class and for some reason they were EXTRA chatty today! I put them to work and eventually they quieted down!
We made one of my favorite dinners! My Mom used to make this all the time! It's a bagel with ham, cheese and apples heated in the oven! Mmm!
Friday! Friday! Friday! What a fantastic day it was! I started it with an 8 mile sunrise run on the water!
It was gorgeous!
It was the perfect start to my day! After work I had a wonderful date planned with my best friend Erin at Sea Dog Brewing Company! How cute is she?!
It was so nice to spend time just us! She's seriously the sweetest person in the entire world! I'm so lucky to have her in my life!
Saturday morning we hit the road at 0730 to head to the Cumberland Fair with the Wescott Clan! We had so much fun!
We got home around noontime and I got to plant my Tulips & Daffodills for next Spring! I can't wait to see them come up!
We got dinner with Cyn's parents and met our friends out later to catch up! It was a nice relaxing Saturday night!
Two nights in a row I got to spend it with my best friend! We live 20 minutes apart but sometimes go weeks without seeing each other because of our busy schedules!
Sunday was National Coffee Day! We woke up grabbed coffees and headed to Raymond to hike Rattlesnake Mountain! It was a gorgeous morning for a hike!
20 minutes in we were still all smiles!
We took some great pictures from the top and tried panoramic photo and both managed to get in it! Pretty cool!
We got home and did some cleaning and buttoning up of the house for the cold weather ahead! We both had the urge to cook so we headed to Cyn's parents and cooked up a storm!
Cyn made Chicken Corn Chowder for the first time! It came out fantastic!
Pammy was making Date cookies!
And I learned how to make my First Apple Pie!
Now that's a chef outfit if I ever saw one ;)
All ready for the oven!
I couldn't have done it without her! :)
Our final product! It tasted just as good as it looks! :)
What a fun day we had! I cannot believe it's already Sunday night! We've got the Patriots on and were finally winding down for the evening!
Remember the quote for the week:
"Today I will do what others won't, so tomorrow I can accomplish what others can't."
Always put your best foot forward and work towards your goals. Each step you take make sure it pushes you in the best direction for YOU and leads you to your dreams!
Always work to set yourself up for success, never failure. Put in all your strength and effort each day so that you grow into the person you want to be.
YOU have the ability to be anything you want and never forget that!
Have a fantastic week as September ends and October starts! It's a NEW week, a NEW month, a NEW you! Make it great! :)
