Life Lately

There have been a lot of fun things happening in our household the last week, so let's look at life lately, shall we?

Friday, as I mentioned, was mine and Brent's anniversary. Well, it's also my BFF's birthday. The last few years we've been able to have a day date and we both really look forward to it. This year we had breakfast together and got massages - it was heavenly. Super annoyed that I forgot to get a picture of us together, ugh. 

My DELICIOUS drink!

And while Kristen and I didn't take a picture, you can see her hand ha!

All the fooooooood! Quite possibly the best pancakes I've ever had, yum.

Then Friday night, Brent and I went out to celebrate our anniversary. We went to a local restaurant we both really like, and there was a bit of a wait, so we sat by the bar and had a drink, and Brent watched the Astros play and I read my book. It reminded me a lot of our honeymoon because the Astros were in the playoffs that year as well, so Brent would watch the games in our hotel room {in French, ha} while I read. It's good to see that fundamentally we haven't changed much, huh?

With our masks down because drinks, duh.

More yummy food.

Happy anniversary, my love!

When I start talking about book club a little too much..,

Saturday Trent had flag football {he LOVES playing, and it makes me so happy to see him happy}. Then we hung out with Kelly and her kids.

When your neighbors are also your besties...

Sunday was a very impressive day of activity for me. Kelly and I usually run once on the weekends. Lately it's been Sunday due to various Saturday sports for our boys. So Sunday we ran 3.5 miles {well, I ran 3.5 miles and she ran 5 ha}. Then later in the day I had an event at jazzercise that was another hour of cardio! 

The funny thing was the weather on Saturday would have been perfect for this event - it was in the 70s and cloudy. Sunday however was 90 and HOT, and we danced for breast cancer awareness {a PINK out party} OUTSIDE. So hot!

My girls had so much fun with the owner's daughter!

Jell-O shots were MUCH needed at the end!

Drew LOVES Sam, the owner

My most active day since having an Apple watch! I burned almost 1,400 calories.

Then, to add to the excitement of a fun weekend, on Monday, my cousin, Hagan, came to town. Her youngest {of 3 boys} is 4.5 and had some doctors appointments in town {they live in Ft. Worth}, and she stayed with us Monday night. I haven't seen her in FOREVER and haven't even met Jackson! The kids LOVED her and Jackson, my parents came over, and we had a great night. We vowed to start making get-togethers a NECESSITY.

Paige and Jackson had a blast swinging.

Note to self: Don't wait until 11:30 to take pictures!

The kids had all of last week off for Fall Break {such a cruel joke after getting them back in live school barely 2 weeks ago}, and Paige was STRUGGLING to go back to school. So I decided to turn her carseat around forward-facing a few months early {4 was my original plan}, and that has definitely helped her excitement level for getting in the car.

Look at that big girl!

What did I tell y'all? It's definitely been a fun few days!
