Weekend Recap

Happy Monday ya'll!! I woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed ready to take on the day. I think the fact that we're suppose to have some awesome weather the next three days also helps :). This weekend was a good mix of busy and relaxing. On Friday morning, a sweet friend of mine invited me over for breakfast with her family. It was such a blessing and we were able to have some great discussion for about 4 hours! God is so good and has provided me some great opportunities for fellowship with other christian women.

This girl also makes the most delicious baked goods and I was in for a treat that morning. She made cinnamon rolls, biscotti, maple bars and chocolate chip scones! Of course I had a little bit of everything and then came home with a goody bag!

That evening I tried out a zumba class at the gym I attend. It was so much fun! Although this picture sums up my thoughts perfectly. 

Saturday morning I took B to the dog park and let him run his little heart out! It's definitely his happy place. Ever since we got the new flooring in our home, he has been less active so I have to get him outdoors at least once a day. 

Once home, I tackled mowing the yard. We have a small yard but since it is sloped, it was very difficult for me to mow. Maybe I am being whiney but I was certainly hoping neither of my neighbors were watching because it was certainly comical! Now I just need to figure out how to use the weed eater. 

I think it turned out pretty good considering it was my first time! I picked up take out and met a friend  for dinner. 

Sunday morning I headed to church. It is about a 45 min drive but I find those drives a great time to reflect on God's goodness! After church I hit up TJ Max for some new candles. I found some tropical scents that are getting me ready for summatime!

I attended a potluck mid afternoon and then met up with some ladies in the evening for a bonfire. 

All in all it was a lovely weekend! Now I am off to tackle my to do list :). I've got a DIY project that I am excited about and will share on the blog soon! 

Playing Catch Up

I can't believe it has been over one month since my last post! I am going to try to be more consistent with my posts. Wish me luck. :)

We have been getting some awesome weather here in the Pacific Northwest and I have taken advantage of every sunny day to spend time outside. Blanco and I have been on several scenic walks lately. We usually shoot for afternoon walks so that he is worn out by the end of the day!

Several of my family members have made the trek from eastern WA to visit us. Being close to family has been such a blessing and I am sure I will se a lot more of them this summer. 

My new baby niece Bria!

It's currently tulip season so a trip to the tulip fields was a must with this cutie! 

During the warmer months, I love to have fresh flowers around the house. It adds a little pep in my step and adds color to an otherwise mostly neutral palette. 

I recently joined a women's bible study at a local church and we are reading "Becoming a Woman Whose God is enough". It has been both encouraging and convicting at the same time. I would definitely recommend it!

 

Well folks. That's all I have for ya!
