Last night after a really tough workout with Khrystle (I am so sore this morning), Bill, Pepsi, and I headed to Sarah and Stewart’s neighborhood BBQ.
They wanted to get together with all of their neighbors and get to know them better. I love this idea!
There was lots of good wine:
I drank this amazing oaky, creamy Chardonnay:
Lots of great dogs:
And lots of bike lovin! It truly was a Bike BBQ 
It was a fun way to usher in the weekend but made getting up this morning just a bit tough.
Yay for Smoothie Friday though! I am gonna whip up something to soothe my sore muscles and help me make it through the day.
What kind of smoothie are you gonna whip up?
And now for our wine giveaway winner-a great thing to win right before the weekend…..The randon integer number picked-4
And number 4 is……………………Becelisa!
Girl, email me so I can get your address to the Tamas Estates people
Have a great day today friends!
love the pics! summer is in the air! and those doggies are So cute!!! ahh i think i will have a smoothie later…I am thining something tropical!
Would love to see my sis and catch up. Many big changes are in the air and it is not the same unless she is part of the picture. Love you!!!
What a lovely looking bbq – cute pups! I wish I lived in a neighbourhood where people actually met up.
Have a busy, busy weekend ahead. Lots of kid stuff, errands and gardening to do…and I need to get a long run in too.
Hope you have a lovely weekend!
Congrats Becelisa!!
I will be having a green smoothie with LOTS of spinach and some banana in honor of you today Kalli!
Thank you for all the inspiration you give to us!
That looks like a really fun BBQ, I will be getting ready for my summer kick off BBQ we’ll be having next week.
Happy Friday!
xoxo
Sounds like fun! We are going to a BBQ Sunday, still trying to decide on the side dish to bring. Blackberry Spinach Smoothie for me! Happy Smoothie Friday!
Yard Sale! I’m having one, not going to them. Last thing I need is other people’s junk, I’ve got enough of my own!
Sounds like you guys had fun
As for the weekend.. I have a long to do list to catch up to.. nothing fun what-so-ever
yay! i can’t wait to enjoy the wine. thanks for a great give-away
my weekend is going to be pretty tri-training focused ~ a swim tonight, a bike-ride tomorrow and a long trail run sunday. now if i can just get to where i can do all three of them on the same day! other than that i think i’ll relax by my pool (with good wine of course) and spend saturday night at a friend’s for game-night. i hope you and bill have a fun weekend.
I want BBQ now…really badly!
Yay! The BBQ sounded great! Nothing better than those spring/summer nights with good friends! I love all grilled meals, too! This weekend I’m just going to spend time with friends, go to a Seattle Sounders game on Saturday, and cook up a storm! Hope your weekend is awesome, my love!!
Smoothie: A green monster of course! Spinach, almond milk, 1/2 of a banana, peanut butter
Weekend plans: Trying to keep it low key and not spend any money. My bank account has been looking seriously sad and I want to replenish it. So keeping the outings to a minimum and doing lots of (free) workouts!
I just plan on kicking back in the pool with all my dudes! You’re so adorbs!
That’s so fun that you had a bike bbq, great picture too
I don’t have that many plans this weekend, which is fun for me. Enjoy!
You guys are so gorgeous…seriously!
Thank you for your kind support on my situation…I truly am at a loss…the worst part was that I left my job 3 weeks ago and only intended on taking 2 weeks off – just making a decision…but I haven’t made a decision – obviously – and next week will be 4 weeks – and instead of feeling refreshed and less stressed, I actually feel more so…not a good way to enter a job….and not a good way to start the summer…especially with no vacation…
I’m just afraid that moving to such a small location would be a big mistake. I think I need more socialization and just being out there and doing stuff…I would miss the trendy stores and cute cafes and walking downtown…and more guys here
….but the fact that I could even twice the amount there in a year even…I could pay off close to one of my loans maybe…and/or save to do some travelling…
the worst is that job is not really what i want though…in a nursing home versus the clinic…but again it’s so hard to choose
I think neighborhood block parties are such a great idea! My friend’s aunt and uncle just went to one that was a “prom theme”, which is their spring block party… too cute, right?
My weekend is full of 5ks- volunteering and possibly racing one. Still up in the air about the racing on Sunday… we shall see!
Have a fantastic weekend!
Look at you rocking that tshirt! Have a fantastic weekend!
you are going to be my personal sommelier when i get back to so cal!
you bring the wine and i will bring the…raw desserts? and we need to go out and have fun!
thx for your great comments and well wishes
xo
Neighborhood parties are always a blast!
Sounds like fun! That is a cool idea.
I am going to view flower gardens this weekend, and hopefully a long bike ride Sunday if the weather cooperates.
Ah, looks like a great evening to me! We soooo need to be closer!
2 scoops protein; 1 banana; 1 c. almond milk; 1 c. pineapple juice; 2 strawberries
All that wine at a BBQ……now that’s my kind of party:)
Love all the photos!!!!!
I made a cherry-peach smoothie today…kinda interesting. Definitely didn’t turn out right.
how FUN GIRLLLL!!!!!! i love bbqs! I made a SWEET TATER COCONUT SMOOTHIE TODAY! soo good!
Ahh I love bbq’s! It looks like you guys had a lot of great fun and a lot of great wine
my kind of gathering!
My smoothies are always the same….so routine! I do change it up when berries are in season here
That will be soon!!
XXOO
BBQ’s are my favorite thing about summer! great way to keep in touch with friends & family and eat good food.
Fun BBQ! I love hanging out with friends…new or old. And those doggies are all so cute! I wish I could have a dog, but my apartment building won’t allow it. I’ll just live vicariously through yours!
that little dog looks like a stuffed animal…so cute!
that is a great way to get to know your neighbors! a backyard with wine sounds great to me!
When did you start biking? I am interested in it because after I accomplish my goal of running a fall marathon next year (currently I only run halfs), I would like to train for a tri-athelon! Also, how much does a good bike cost for a total brand new amateur?
Looks like a fun BBQ, wish our neighbors did more stuff like that. Love the dog pics, so cute! Hope you’re having a great weekend!
I have a feeling tonight I will drink one too many and regret it tomorrow. And when I say “one too many” I mean I will have two beers and feel like butt!! Yeah, I’m not longer a college student and it’s pretty obvious.
The smoothie I have been making lately consists of kefir, sweet potato, banana, and frozen blueberry! It’s great with a splash of juice too
I finally had a smoothie!
it was green!
I also whipped up a banana and cocoa powder one with amazing grass…so that’s 2 in one Friday!
looks like you’ve had a few great days!
