It has been an almost perfect start to my summer vacation.
Last night I welcomed the vacation with dinner and wine with Khrystle and Sara.
And woke up without an alarm, drank coffee, and went on a lovely run.
Then had a relaxing lunch with Ruth and the dogs at Cafe Nouveau. I love Cafe Nouveau because you can bring your pups with you and they have a fabulous menu.
Yes the dogs were with us:
Had a great salad made with turkey, cheese, cranberries and pecans with a balsamic dressing:
YUM!
I will miss Ruth because she will be in Hawaii with her hubby all summer!
Then I took a long nap…….Oh I needed it!
Tonight Bill and I are enjoying a bit of this and relaxing:
Hope you are enjoying yourself and hope you have some wonderful summer plans for the weekend.
I am gonna ride on Saturday and go see Dad on Sunday.
And you? Are you going to celebrate with your dad?
Thanks for reading and have a great night!
Awesome. I am not sure what the plans are yet with my dad. They are in the process of moving so dad’s day may be next weekend at the lake.
Have a super ride! And have fun w/ your dad! We have no big plans as of yet
Oh to wake up without an alarm, that’s the best!
I LOVE Ravenswood. Its a favorite of mine. Nice nap! You need to catch up on ZZZZzz’s.
sounds like the perfect start to summer vacation!
Just reading this has gotten me in summer vacation mode. Just one more take home final and i am DONE.
Sounds like an awesome weekend! Enjoy your ride and your visit with your dad!
You really did have the perfect day! Enjoy your ride and your time with your dad!
Sounds like a lovely way to start summer vacation!
I’ll be riding on Saturday as well.
Hoping to take my dad out for a bagel on Sunday – left it up to him if he wants one
I hope the rest of the weekend goes as perfectly!
Unfortunately, I will not get to be with my dad. Living in different states makes it difficult. But our family trip we’re planning also is over his birthday, so we’re doing a double celebration then!
I wish I could celebrate with my dad
I am going home in two weeks though so I will have to wait until then!
I always wake up without an alarm, drink coffee and go running (or workout). I get up early and have a great start to my day!
Have a great weekend!!
Your day sounds lovely. So jealous of you being able to wake up without an alarm clock. Midget C. is my alarm clock every morning at 6:30
hmmm, sounds PERFECT to me!
The salad looks so delicious. I love salads like that.
I’m jealous of Ruth. Hawaii ALL SUMMER?! Poor thing. haha
Love waking up without an alarm – it defines vacation for me. Hope you have a good dad’s day.
Sounds like a great day and that salad looks awesome! Thanks!
looks and sounds like you’re enjoying your summer vacation!
Your lab is beautiful! Looks like my dog Tess!
Almost perfect? That sounds perfect to me! 
Have fun with your Dad! 
hope youre having a great weekend!
I’m excited to celebrate Father’s Day! I’m baking him is favorite cake tonight
i’ll be shooting on sunday, but it doesn’t matter b/c my dad and my daddy in law are both on the other side of the country. i sent them gifts already, though!
Have fun with your dad! I wish I lived closer to my folks so my dad and I could go on a Father’s Day bike ride tomorrow!
Sounds like a great start to summer! Have a great day with your dad tomorrow!
Awww the little yorkie in the chair, cuuute!
Have a good weekend with your pops. I’ve got a hot date with my dad:) Cooking him dinner!
Hope you have a good ride!
Isn’t waking up alarm-clock-less GREAT?!
I have a friend that’s been living and working in Krygyzstan for the past 10+ months, and he just came back this week, so we’re having a homecoming gathering for him :] He endured revolution there a couple months ago; I’d say he deserves a couple drinks bought for him!
Sounds like a great day. I hope you have an awesome ride. Yeah, we’re doing a family gathering at my sister’s for Father’s Day.
That is a great wine. Excellent choice.
