Where to begin..

Happy Sunday, friends!

We had a pretty eventful, yet uneventful week {if that even makes sense..} Although it was mainly spent working, going to the gym, and cleaning house, we had a few events that made the week quite interesting! 

The biggest take away from the week was the fact that my wonderful and sweet husband got accepted into the RCIA program at a local Catholic church. Yes, friends, he is converting! I'm so thrilled for him, and cannot wait to be a part of this journey with him. He has asked that I be his sponsor, and I couldn't be more thankful and feel so special. Congratulations to Charles!

The weekend was mainly where all the fun began, so let's start there, shall we?!

Friday night we had homemade sushi night at our house. We usually do this once a year {on a Friday during Lent} but we are thinking about having a "fall version" this year. We had too much fun. I did not have as much fun on Saturday morning, however, as I think we managed to use every last dish that we own and I had loads upon loads of dishes to do! 

Saturday was fairly uneventful -- gym, took a nap {ahh it was wonderful}, and out to dinner with my lovey and to pub crawl! I had never been to our local pub crawl, so we decided to go out this year. We really didn't get to "crawl" though, because it was a rainy, windy, cold mess! We went to one bar and stayed put. It was PACKED as can be, but we had a blast. It was a much needed night out. We were tucked into bed safe and sound by 11:30, and fell asleep with the window open, listening to the pouring rain and smelling the cold air and the rain. Needless to say, I slept peacefully last night. 

Today Charles and I went to introduce him to the priest who will be guiding him through the RCIA process, and then we took my brother to lunch. After some cleaning around the house, I decided to get a little "blogging" in before I head to the gym and then to my parents for family dinner. Honestly, all I want is a nap...hmm..maybe I can sneak in a half hour or so before the gym...we shall see!


Pictures, pictures, pictures..

Friday was "pi" day {{3/14}} so I brought some friends at work little mini pie's! I'm nerdy and I know it.

Doesn't it look amazing? It tasted that way as well

My sister even made homemade lo mein to go with the sushi!

I wanted to make individual cups of spicy mayo for the guests, and decided to have a little photo fun while I was working on it!

Sorry for the bluriness! We were in the dark

Just a view of the bar we went to, all decked out for pub crawl!

Some photo fun with my honey!

We didn't even notice the photobomber in the background


Before we went out!

My handsome all dressed up to meet the priest. What a stud muffin. 



This week should be a pretty tame one, at work and otherwise. I'm rather looking forward to that, and looking forward to getting a little extra time in at the gym. Lake season is in two months people, let's put a little bit of pep in our step and get into lake shape. Not only will you look better, but you will feel better as well, I can personally guarantee that. Just get motivated to make a personal lifestyle change.
