Good morning and HAPPY MONDAY to you!

How was your weekend? Ours was BUSY, but a whole lot of fun, too. We hung out with friends, got a lot of errands and whatnot accomplished, and enjoyed PLENTY of delicious food and drink. Holy cow, I feel like I need a serious detox after the weekend I had. Ha! Anyway… here are SEVEN highlights from a family weekend!

FRIDAY

Our usual “Donut Friday” turned into “Big-As-Your-Head-Bagel Friday.” Apparently, Qman was feeling a poppyseed bagel from Whole Foods instead of a donut from Coffee Shack. Hey, sometimes you change your mind, right? We also scored one of the tractor shopping carts, so it was definitely a good Friday morning!

Date night at Rivershed with the most handsome guys ever. SO MANY people recommended Rivershed to us, so we just had to check it out.

Verdict: WE LOVED IT! Seriously, we had such an awesome experience, we’ll definitely visit again. The beer menu was stellar, and the food was excellent. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with jalapenos, and it was so darn delicious… I ended up eating the ENTIRE thing! Related: I also heard a rumor that in the summer, Rivershed has a big play area outside for kids. How fun does that sound!? We can’t wait to have a family weekend visit there in the summer!

SATURDAY

Working out at CrossFit followed by a meeting with Kerrie at Whole Foods to discuss hiring another person to join our team. We have SO MANY new clients, and we need help making meal plans and growing DTFN, which, of course, is an awesome “problem” to have. We drafted a job description and nailed down our pay structure. Here we go!!

Putting myself on a DTFN meal plan. I actually have a client with almost the exact same macronutrient goals as me, so I’m using the same plan as her this week! 🙂 BOOM.

Enjoying dinner, drinks, and SO MANY LAUGHS with friends on Saturday night. My gosh, we had such a fun time. Qman also scored a (super handsome) haircut!

SUNDAY

Hosting brunch with friends on Sunday morning. It was so great to catch up with everyone and, whoa, there was some seriously delicious food. Mal made Chilaquiles For A Crowd (<— easy and awesome recipe), and our friends brought an epic spread of pastries from Wegmans. I tried a bite of pretty much every single one.

Dominating Sunday meal prep! I made so many delicious and nutritious foods for the upcoming week. On the menu: Garlic & Chive Hummus Chicken Salad, Broccoli & Parmesan Hash Brown Bake, Lemon Shrimp with Zoodles, and Slow Cooker Teriyaki Drumsticks from Real Food Slow Cooker Recipes. We actually made the drumsticks for dinner last week and just had to make them again because they’re sooooooo tasty (and easy)!
