TGIF! I wish I could say I was happy it was Friday, but my husband and I have so much packing ahead of us. We move one week from tomorrow, so this weekend is all about packing the majority of our house up, since things will be too hectic during the week. After I finish coaching the early CrossFit classes this morning, I’m taking Keenan to my parents’ house for the weekend, so my husband and I can pack non-stop (okay, stopping for eating, sleeping and bathroom breaks, of course!). Packing with Keenan always takes twice as long, as he loves to ask what everything is, why we are packing it and if he can see it. It’s cute, but not when you are on a time schedule!
Anyhow, let’s move to the fun stuff…Friday Favorites! If you missed last week’s favorites, you can check them out here. If you are new here, every Friday is a chance to slow down among the craziness of life, reflect back on the week and cherish some of your favorite moments, eats and now, your workouts. I hope you will join me and share some of your favorites by linking up below!
Favorite Moments:
Keenan vacuuming with “Baba” after we played with play doh. He was insistent that “Baba” vacuum, too!
Coming home to a beautiful bouquet of flowers for our anniversary, thanks to my husband!
Keenan being SUPER excited for his new bean bag chair that will go in his “big boy” room in our new house.
Favorite Eats:
Gluten-Free Banana Bars With Cream Cheese Frosting…SO good!
Our anniversary dinner of HUGE burritos, chips, salsa and beer. I still can’t believe we finished our burritos (we should have just ordered one and split it!).
Grilled zucchini salad with red oniocherry tomatoes, feta cheese and Italian sausage.
Favorite Workouts:
Instead of sharing a few workouts, I chose the one I liked the best. Even though I’m not a fan of a lot of running, I liked Wednesday’s WOD because it challenged me to really push myself to get through it. I was 2 box jump overs shy of finishing, ugh!
WOD:
Run 800m
50 Box Jump overs
Run 800 M
40 Box Jump Overs
Run 800m
30 Box jump overs
Have a great weekend!

My job has been WILD this week, but yesterday afternoon I was able to spend some time outside in some outstanding weather with my family and was able to de-stress and just let go and then got a GREAT feeling run in. Those were my favorites this week 🙂
It sounds like a wonderful end to the week! I love spending time outside with my family. Have a great weekend!
My favorite moment from the week was spending Saturday evening with Bob and some close friends. We had a great time together–good food, good wine, and LOTS of laughs. Good luck packing this weekend!
Sounds like the perfect evening! Have a great weekend!
Those banana bars look AWESOME! We’re getting ready to move in a few weeks, too. I’m not looking forward to the craziness! But I am definitely excited about the new house. 🙂 Good luck with it all!
Thanks and thank you for linking up! Good luck with your move, too! Don’t you wish you could magically snap your fingers and everything would be packed and moved for you?
What a fun week and good luck packing! I can totally understand how hard it would be to pack with a little one. I have a hard enough time just cleaning up! It’s like having a little Tasmanian devil that follows you around making a mess of whatever you just cleaned!
What are box jump overs?
Haha, SO true! Box jump overs are jumping over a 20 inch box. You can either clear it completely or jump on top and then jump down to the other side. I hope you are enjoying your weekend!
Hi Melissa! I linked up my Friday Favorites post. I’ve been subscribing to your blog for some time now. Happy to connect with you. Found you through SITS.
Hi! Thanks so much for following my blog and linking up! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
Love your blog! I strive to be as active as you are once children come into the picture for us. 😉 Although it’s Monday – some of my favorite things from last week were avocados (even made guacamole!), Fitness Pilates classes, and getting to take a dance workshop.
Thank you! Ooh, I LOVE guacamole, especially with chips (even though they aren’t the healthiest choice!) Hey, everything in moderation, right? I haven’t taken Pilates in a long time; that sounds fun! Thanks for stopping by my blog!
