helloooo, monday.
i had a productive weekend full of firsts. and while i'm usually dreading mondays, i can't wait to get back on the treadmill. what?? i mean, just look at the first picture.
invited by a friend, mini-she and i went to our first women's conference on friday night. over 800+ women in an energetic atmosphere, singing songs of praise, inviting jesus into their hearts. for any newbie, it's overwhelming...even a bit uncomfortable. but i did enjoy the speaker and her message about change. after the conference, i had some one-on-one time with mini-she as we chatted over good eats.
mini burgers, southwest spring rolls,
and artichoke dip and chips.
on saturday, i met my friend (and marathon training partner) for our first run together in 2014. we have been keeping each other in the loop about our weekly workouts and treadmill runs, but it was nice to actually hit the pavement. following our 5-mile run (woot!), her husband juiced for us. i had my first ever green juice. greens & kale, green apples, lemons. it did have a strong "green" smell, but it was totally drinkable. i am definitely team green. how about you?
and on sunday, mini-she had a church outing to a local trampoline place. since i had to pick her up, i decided to check it out with mini-he. it was our first time there, and it was super fun. i'd only seen YouTube videos of similar places, so i was confused when the guy said 'only one person per trampoline'. makes sense, but there were tons of people there; how many trampolines could this place possibly have, i wondered?! but i understood once i saw it...one person per square.
you have to wear non-slip socks, which you can purchase there for $3. mini-he had such a great time and kept thanking me for bringing him to get some exercise. he did complain about being a little sore today, but so was i. i actually considered purchasing 90 minutes of jump time, but one-hour is plenty!
tell me about your weekend.

i'm paying for all that good food now!
Deletei accidentally deleted your comment...silly iphone! thanks so much for stopping by!
DeleteOkay that trampoline place looks AWESOME. Why couldn't those sorts of places exist when I was a kid? Or even near me now? I am totally jealous. My weekend was alright, pretty uneventful. It's crazy cold out so I avoid the outdoors as much as possible, but it just gives me an extra reason to get ahead on homework. I did finally get back to yoga on Sunday though, which is something I need to get back to regularly again, so I guess that was a good thing!
ReplyDeletei know, right? we didn't have half the places kids have now.
DeleteThat food look so delicious!
ReplyDeleteWWW.PUTRIVALENTINALIM.BLOGSPOT.COM
it was! thanks :)
DeleteI so want to go to a trampoline park!
ReplyDeletefind one. it's so much fun!
DeleteOh lots of yumms and goodnesses! :)
ReplyDelete(As for the Cerave, they do have a PM version of the facial moisturizer. It is thick and moisturizing minus the sunscreen. I also love the original lotion for everything. Truly a great drugstore range worth trying. :))
i will check it out next time...thanks!
DeleteWow! Everything looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm sure you all enjoyed your time together! :)
good times, for sure!
Deletegreat photoes looks like you gus had a really fun time
ReplyDeletethe food look sumptuous..yum yummy
ReplyDeleteWow the trampoline place looks so fun!
ReplyDeleteI had an awesome weekend, too! And juicing is so everywhere! It's all I see on my social media news feed. I'm all for team green but I don't understand why some people had to buy and spend a lot of $$$$ when they can do the juicing. Gosh. Am I ranting on your blog. XD
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to take my granddaughters jumping but it always looks so crowded there and I'm worried they could get hurt with so many kids. In your photo there is hardly anyone there, where is everyone? LOL
