The Weekend Update

9.17.2012

Hey friends! Hope it was a good weekend.  Here's a look at ours!


*My little guy swiped my glasses and gave them a try.  And see the bunny back there on the counter? He was injured and that caused many tears to fall.  I finished his reconstructive surgery this weekend.

*Rice krispie treats, yum! We make ours with coconut oil and flax seeds and pretend they're healthy.  I was thinking of throwing some nuts and raisins in there too.

*A much needed trip to the salon:)

*The boys are obsessed with throwing water balloons lately.  It's so fun!


*Saturday night we had friends over for the Florida v Tennessee game and we made bacon wrapped potato bites with spicy sour cream (swiped the recipe from Jill).  They.were.delicious!  My friends called them deconstructed loaded baked potato bites.  Make them! Yummy.



*Saturday we drove my half marathon course through Nashville so I could get a little familiar (it's THIS SATURDAY!!!).  Um, why is my very first big race entirely uphill?  The hubs (I believe) is afraid this race might be the death of me.  He looked very worried.  And that made me worried.  But I'm pushing the nerves away and I'm just going to do the best I can.  That's all I can do!

As always, sharing with friends; Leeann (Join the Gossip), five30three, and sami's shenanigans

  1. I got my hair done this weekend too! I had to laugh at the way you're sitting. I always try to sit like that but my hairdresser scolds me bc my hair will come out crooked if she cuts it while I sit like that...or something. ha!
