Summer bucket list
Thank you so much for all of the wonderful comments on my race recap! I’m hobbling around over here, but still have a smile on my face from an awesome weekend. We’ve had a blast with Kyle, Meg, Lindy and Luna, and went out to celebrate Meg’s birthday yesterday. 🙂 I was going to do…

Some race weekend pics
Kyle, Meg, Lindy and Luna are here! The boys driving the pups to the dog park: Sunday brunchin’: (and “almost-bottomess” mimosas. Do they have to put that in quotes to keep people from taking it super literally?): A great race (and new PR! I’ll have a fun recap in the am): With Meghann and Meb!…

Is it really Friday already? I think every week should include a 3-day weekend 🙂 What are you up to the next couple of days? Word on the street is that I’m running 13 miles this weekend. Pray for my soul. Also, Kyle and Meg, our friend Lindy (and Luna!!) will be here! I can…

If we were having coffee right now…
We’d probably be at one of the cute cafes near the beach. We have quite a few amazing spots around here -each time I walk around, I see yet another place I’d like to check out- and it’s totally normal to: a) not be wearing any shoes, and/or b) bring in an enormous standard poodle…

Hi guys! How’s your morning going so far? I’m so glad you liked the quinoa pancake recipe. I had another batch for breakfast this morning. So good 🙂 Yesterday afternoon while Liv was napping, I decided to plant some more herbs out in the yard since we still had unused soil and pots. Bell was…

Not a fave: major technology issues yesterday. Sorry for the lack of posts! I had a barre burner ready for ya and had some major uploading problems. I tried at multiple times during the day to upload, only to crash iMovie. It couldn’t handle the burn 😉 The good news is that it should finally…

Hiiii 🙂 Hope you had a great weekend and a happy Cuatro de Mayo. I spent most of it in BodyPump training -I’ll post a full recap in the next couple of days!- but still got to enjoy some time with my little fam. Liv and I had a pizza party on the patio when…

It’s the weekend! Anything fun planned? We have a couple of things on the agenda, but for the most part it should be pretty low key. The Pilot has been in a training course all week, so Liv and I are excited to hang out with him. (Fresh cut roses from our little garden) Some…

Dog beach and weekend pics
Bella is OBSESSED with the dog beach. She runs into the surf, sprints back, and for the time we’re there, she seems like she’s a young pup, instead of pushing nine like she really is. (She’s always pretty spry, but it’s like the ocean brings out her youth even more.) Friday afternoon after the Pilot…

The return of the breakfast cookie. We had them for breakfast the other day, and needless to say, Liv was stoked that she had A COOKIE FOR BREAKFAST. She ate almost the entire thing! I’m so excited to bring these back in the rotation because they’re so convenient to make the night before. The reason…

Hi! How’s your day going? Thank you so much for all of the kind comments about the house so far. I have to admit I was a liiiittle afraid of the paint color -we jokingly called our last house the everything-brown house- but have fallen in love with how cheery and crisp the white walls…
