Happy Friday!

I can’t believe we are already near the end of the first week of December! Is it just me, or is Christmas coming WAY too fast this year?

Anyhow, I’m excited for the weekend to be here starting with today because I have a prenatal massage scheduled this afternoon and tomorrow we are having our good friends over for a little holiday get together. Since both of my friends are also pregnant and craving salty, savory foods, we are going to have quite the feast…my husband’s jalapeno poppers, oven-baked sweet potato fries, turkey burgers, guacamole and some veggies. It should be good!

Since it’s Friday, it’s time for another round of Friday Favorites!  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 your favorite moments, eats and/or workouts. I hope you will join me and share some of your favorites by linking up below!

Favorite Moment:

Cutting down our Christmas tree for the first time and decorating it as a family while listening to Christmas music! Keenan had so much fun putting the ornaments on the tree “all by himself” as he kept telling us!

Favorite Eat(s):

Another toss-up, my roasted butternut squash soup with some chopped chicken added for additional protein

and a new recipe experiment which is now a family favorite, spaghetti squash pasta bake (recipe coming soon!)

Favorite Workout:

5 rounds:

400 m run

12 deadlifts (95 lb)

It felt so good to do deadlifts again! I hadn’t done them since June (due to our garage gym not being finished).

That’s it for this week! Have a great weekend and stay warm! It has been SO cold here lately!

It’s YOUR turn! What were some of your favorite moments, eats or workouts from this past week? Join the link up, or share some of them below in the comments!
