Well, we conquered the first week of one of the biggest quarters for both Ryan and I. Only 10 more weeks to go haha but who is counting? Ryan was lucky enough to not have his usual Monday morning test the next week, so we decided to try and do as little of homework possible (enough to just prepare us for the next week) and have a fun weekend. And folks that is exactly what we did! The fun weekend started off on Thursday for us by going to the Mesa Temple! This weather down here is so perfect right now and the temple grounds are beautiful to walk around. Who wouldn't want to start out their weekend by going here?
Then on Friday after class I got to do a little bit of sunbathing out at the pool while Ryan was still in school.....Yes family on Friday Ryan actually has to go to class
(mandatory) so since I get out earlier then him I caught some rays without my books and just relaxed (it was amazing! I was actually like a Real Person at the pool! Not a student!)....
Next, we went to the movies and watched The Vow. Absolutely loved by the both of us! What an amazing storyline. Loved even more that it was a true story and that it really shows what it means to Love in every moment of life. Yes I am a sucker for a good love story but when my hubby admits he loved it to, it's got to be a good one to see. Love these 2 actors as well.
After the great movie we went and topped off the evening with of nothing but the best....In-N-Out Burger! It was so good....actually that is an understatement....Amazing. Of course we had to get the double-double with a strawberry milkshake! You would think with one only being a few miles from us we would be there all the time but then we would both be 2 Ton Tilly's and we don't want that to happen.
After the fun evening, we came home to full to move and rested our tired little bodies on the coach and pretended to do some homework....failed, we just watched some TV instead and then hit the sack so we could be ready for our adventurous Saturday to come.
Well Saturday came and it came early to get some studying down. Ryan took a "pre-test" board exam to see how is studying is coming along and it took all Saturday morning.
After the test, we were ready for some Spring Training and went and watched the Mariners vs Dodgers. The Mariners/Padres spring training field is only a couple of miles from us. We were ready to catch some rays and eat a good hotdog. We even brought a back pack with some books to study from, but lets be honest the bag was never touched. We just sat on the grass seats and sprawled out. I love spring training cause there is not a "nose bleed" seat around. Even on the grass you are way close to the field.
After some fun baseball time, we decided it was time to go on a big bike ride. It was so much fun to get out. Sorry no pictures...haha. But the night ended with some more homework and then....FOOTLOOSE! I love the old show so we thought we would try out the new version. We thought it was pretty good and a fun movie to end our evening. Sunday came and it was amazing as ALWAYS. Boy we have come to love Sundays, NO school work or even thinking about school and just time for US. On sunday we always watch a movie from Netflix. Ryan found a great show called The Double. It was an AWESOME show and who doesn't love Richard Gere?
To go with the movie, I tried out Puppy Chow (muddy buddies) recipe on popcorn. It was delicious! You can find the recipe
here if you would like to try, they also have other fun recipes for popcorn too.
Pretty much that sums up our "Normal Person" weekend as we would like to call it. Well hopefully we will be ready for another one in 10 weeks, cause now are weekends are long gone to school.
Some may also think to themselves if they have been following our blog....Aren't you suppose to be eating healthy and losing weight? Well I am still losing weight just had a bad weekend you could say haha but do not worry I am starting a "Keto-Run" diet this Monday and it goes for 2 week of no carbs at all to refocus your bodies burning on fat to really get the weight coming off! As my mother-in-law calls it "March Madness has Begun!" But anyways I will post about our New Year Resolutions soon and how we are doing with them.
P.S most pictures are courtesy of my new Iphone 4S....love it!
Wow you guys went all out over the weekend! But I'm glad cause y'all deserve it :D
