Day #30: Celebration at Sol

Some of our really good friends and neighbors, Adam and Kelsey, are moving to Nashville in June! Although, selfishly I'm sad, I'm really excited for them as they start their new adventure! A bunch of us gathered at Sol Cantina (one of our favorite Mexican places in KC--their chicken nachos are amazing!) to celebrate!
Jer wanted to have this blog debut-so here you go Jer-Bear:)

Day #29: Photo Fail

I officially have failed for the first time. I took a picture, but my memory card wasn't in...so no picture. But I can tell you what the picture was:)
I woke up in a funk, not really sure why. I really like to be alone, but sometimes when I'm alone too much...I get in a funk. I think that is what happened. I was just kind of angry, and I'm not an angry person, so I went through a cleaning rampage. I cleaned blinds, baseboards, dusted, laundry, the whole nine yards. I had "clean sheet" night, which is my favorite:) So I took a picture of my newly, cleaned room...clean sheets and all. So I apologize, no picture.
I also ran with Kelsey, went to Church with Anna and Jeremy, and participated in Burger Wars at Tannin. And no lie, Tannin has an excellent burger if anyone is interested!! And back to the grind....:(

Day #28: Spa Day

Ahhhh, a weekend at home. It is amazing. I have been gone for the past few weeks, so I planned to spend the weekend pampering myself. I started on Friday night with dinner with friends. Saturday morning, I went to breakfast with Anna and Jenn again. Why not end "Date Night" with breakfast in the morning;) We went to this cute place called Urban Table. I LOVED it!! They bring your checks in these cute little books:)

AND they had mini-waffles with all different types of syrup...yum:) Anna and I then went to get chemical peels and we got some good skin tips! I have a massage this afternoon! And then I'm going to spend the night, hopefully on my couch, relaxing. I love weekends at home!

Day #27: Date Night

On Friday, I went to dinner with two of my best friends Anna and Jenn:) We went to an awesome place called Trezo Vino! After a long week in the office, it was the perfect way to end the week; dinner and drinks with two of my favorite ladies. We were hoping to go to the cupcake place across the street, but it was closed. We were sad.

Then Jenn came over and we watched Dateline. Yep, we are officially old. It was one of my favorite Friday nights in awhile: dinner, wine, dateline, and bed.

Day #26: Tennis anyone?

So I played tennis tonight with my friend Sam and had so much fun:) It has been like 6 years since I REALLY had fun playing tennis. I think my burn-out my officially be over. Oh, and I have been terrible of remember to take my camera places, so sorry, I just took a picture of the tennis racket in the parking lot:) But it at least represents what I did!



After tennis..Scottie, Johnnie, and I ate dinner whoppers and spaghetti...nice right? And don't worry, I only ate half of a whopper:) Still on the healthy kick! We watched the Ides of March. It was pretty good. Not the best movie, but it kept us entertained. I would recommend a $1 redbox rental:) Happy Friday everyone!!

Day #26: Homemade Soup

So tonight I made potato and cheese soup from scratch:) It was my first attempt..it wasn't bad. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. It probably wasn't great because it was from CookingLight.com. We are in full healthy mode at 999 Penn, so it is only healthy eating for the next 6 weeks...so tonight...it was eh:) But at least we didn't eat a lot of cals;)

It was also day #2 of half-marathon training...oh and I still can't move from my "awesome" (please note the sarcasm) class on Monday. But I did manage to crank out 2.5 miles in under 25 minutes...so not bad. I'm going to see how much I can train while running about a 10ish minute mile....so wish me luck!

Day #24: Sush anyone?

Tonight I went to happy hour at Ra Sushi with my friends Anna, Jeremy, and Beth. I forgot my camera in the car, bad me, I took a picture with Beth's camera, but I thought this one from google would work too:)

I love Ra. And the happy hour sushi rolls are amazing:) In other news, I had a client in town today, so it was kind of nice to get away from my cube...oh and I started half-marathon training with my friend Kelsey!
