We are really loving having people over so we can enjoy our new house and use our new kitchen.

It is fun!

So Bill and I ran to Trader Joes and got the fixins for a feast :)

We had some appetizers:

Wine (obviously ;) ):

We chit chatted with our guests, Gaylon and Mike.  Gaylon is a doctor! She is so interesting.  I think I could ask her questions all night long.  I tried to hold back though.

Had more wine :)

And then feasted on a big salad:

Pizza!
And pasta:

It was fun!

Sometimes the things you plan last-minute turn out to be the best.

Did you do something unexpected this weekend?

It was so nice to welcome the weekend with good wine and good food and good conversation.

Downtown was alive tonight with music and people walking the streets.

We started at our favorite wine bar, The Wine Rack.

We love this place!

Pepsi is always welcome

As usual for Friday,  Debby and I walked to work and stopped to get our smoothie fix.

Smoothie Friday is little tradition we keep up throughout the school year.

Something to look forward to all week and a little way to celebrate the end of the work week and the start of the weekend.

We always go to the same place.

And Maria always greets us with her beautiful smile:

Debby and I ordered this smoothie but subbed out peanut butter for almond butter and traded the vanilla cream for vanilla soy milk and we added spirulina-YUM:

Debby and I are two happy girls on Smoothie Friday!

Did you celebrate Smoothie Friday today by having a shake or a smoothie?

We actually had something extra special today to celebrate.  Debby got engaged!  I am so happy for her :)   She found a great guy.  They will both be super happy.

 

On another note, thank you for all of your great pre race suggestions.  I really liked reading all of them!

Unfortunately I have already broken one of mine-YOGA :(

Instead of doing yoga this afternoon I was at the bike shop ordering my new bike :)

I am so dang excited!

As soon as I get her I will show you…….Oh I can’t wait.

Hope you have a great night.

Are you doing anything fun this weekend?

Stay tuned because I am announcing a giveaway tomorrow.  I think you will like it!
