Our Weekend

We had a nice weekend. Friday we spent time with the cousins. Owen and Austin think Trevor's the coolest thing since sliced bread. Here they are watching Trev play PS3. They were so still and quiet, I think this was the most relaxing part of my day!


Since our CA vacation is about 6ish weeks away, I decided to keep a closer eye on what I'm eating, so I started my "Carlsbad diet." This MyFitnessPal app is awesome! I can easily keep track of what I eat. It also has a nifty bar code scanner so I can scan any item and the nutritional info uploads straight to the app!


We've been trying out some new healthy meals lately. On a bed of spinach, strawberries, shredded chicken and toasted walnuts, I put a drizzle of this Balsamic Glaze from Trader Joe's. It is soooo good, I've found lots of other things I can put this on! Yum.




Also, these energy bites that I made from Pinterest are super delicious. And addicting. 

Ok, enough about food. This weekend we visited the mall and of course rode on the carousel. 


I also did a little shopping and got this new top from Forever21. (It's a lot brighter in person!)

The boys have been their usual cute, feisty selves. 

Saturday morning Owen watched I Love Lucy with me for a bit. He was entranced! It made me so proud because this is probably my favorite show. Some day I'd love to own all of the episodes on DVD so I can watch them whenever I want. 


Sunday after church we had our in-laws over for dinner. We visited and I got some ironing done. A nice, relaxing way to end our nice, relaxing weekend!
