And Then There Were Rings

Today has been a great day :)

After I had a fabulous shake made with almond butter, almond milk, cocoa powder, hemp protein, POM, oats, and frozen berries:

I went on a 32 mile ride with Melanie and Sarah:

 And then came home and ate.  I was STARVING!  Biking really makes me hungry-more so than running.  In fact during my ride I ate through one package of these:

But it was not enough.  Once I got home I quickly made lunch.

I smeared avocado and cooked sweet potato between two slices of wheat bread:

Best sandwich ever with an orange from a friends back yard.  It was heaven!

Then Bill and I ventured to Ormachea, a jewelry store in downtown Ventura.  They make all of their own designs and all jewelry is specially made just for you.

Remember how I told you we ran off like silly birds and got married at the court-house in December?  Well we never got rings.

Today we ordered them :)   They are being made just for us.

Here is what mine will look like:

I love the square shape and brushed look-so modern!

I can’t wait to get it!

Now I am kicking it and blogging and soon Bill and I are headed to a friend’s house for a BBQ.  Should be a lot of fun.

Hope you are having a great day too :)

Thanks for reading friends!

  3. What a glorious day for you! Found you on Kenzie’s blog and now find you’re doing some of the same things we are, only Adventure Guy and I are working up to your level over at Confessions of a Startled Fat Woman. That and I’ve kissed 50 and am picking up speed.

    Love those shakes. I’ve been using Manitoba hemp protein powder. Will have to try yours. Carry on!

  4. Awesome with the rings. That’s so great!!! Have a great evening!

    the first ring i had from scott was a custom piece and i have gotten another, which is a one of a kind, but I didnt design it like i did the first one. they both make me happy and i am thrilled for you!

    YaY! Congratulations on your rings. They are so representative of you. Sophisticated, sleek and stylish! Sexy, too :) Luv U.

  23. mmm smoothies in the bullet! I’ve been making a few of those lately since getting the bullet. Cycling makes me super hungry too! Congratulations on your rings, it is absolutely gorgeous. I like how it’s not your traditional shape either, very nice! have a great rest of the weekend :)

  24. It’s not a marriage until you have rings!!
    My brother-in-law forgot his ring at his wedding to my sister, so he used my husband’s ring as a stand-in. Haha.
    Now Matt’s ring is blessed for 2 marriages!

  25. Congrats on getting rings! I love the thick&square design of it.

  26. Congratulations! I still regret that we ordered our rings too close to our wedding to have to get them engraved.
