deserves a post dedicated to it.
Much like some of you, Ohio had a break in it's winter madness for 60 degree temps this weekend and
that means that everyone (and I mean everyone) was out enjoying it. I can't tell you how refreshing it was!

Let's break down the events of this glorious weekend and what's been going on around here lately....
By the way, if you have the Insta follow me at-katiewkrysh.
It's kinda my favorite.
Friday night was me and Billy's date night. His hockey has picked up so date nights aren't as easy to come by like they had been the past month or so! We went out to dinner and drank wine at the house together and managed to make it to bed before midnight (see also: granny status).
{did the half moon manicure (love) and was decked out in purple for my run}
I've been trying to stick my goals (see this post or simple version-clean eating and working out 4-5 per week) and since the weather was amazing Saturday morning, I went for 5 mile run outside at my favorite park!
It.was.awesome and also made me wish for warm weather year round. Darn you southerners. ;) Afterwards, I made a new yummy juice with: strawberries, 1 beet, carrots, spinach, and an apple. A lot of you have been asking this-you can't really taste the beet. The juice is more sweet then anything else. I've been skipping the coffee and instead doing green tea and/or juicing in the mornings and I haven't missed it at ALL! It's crazy how much energy juicing gives you.
We also decided to take advantage of the nice weather and cooked out on our deck for lunch then took a nap with the sliding door open after. Oh myyyy lordy...it was FABULOUS! Napping with the windows/doors open is one of those little things that doesn't get enough praise as it should. That's for sure.
Billy's cousin was in town Saturday night, so for the first time in months we actually went out downtown (I don't even really remember the last time-cue "you know you're old when....") to meet up with him and his friends. Sunday was spent relaxing, cleaning up the house, and then my best friend Lindsay's parents had us over for dinner. They are so incredibly sweet because they always include me and Billy as a part of their family. Love them so much.
Tonight I'm dragging Ashley to my favorite spin class with me to get our butt kicked.
I've found that making Monday's one of my hardest workout days is a great way to get it out of the way so I'm not dreading it later on in the week.
Also, if you haven't yet-download this song for your workouts. :)
How did you spend your weekend? Have you tried juicing yet?
If not-get on it!
Make it a marvelous monday!
xo.
This weekend was pretty much amazing. In fact I got so used to it that I am mourning winter all over again!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great weekend. I'm really jealous of your warmer weather & your workout motivation...I am dragging my feet big time! I'm obsessed with that Pitbull song and Jason makes fun of me.

ReplyDeleteI need to get on the juicing train. Just need to purchase a juicer first.
Sounds like a lovely weekend. We had a nice break too, only today winter came back and hit us hard. Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteGlad yall had some warmer weather this weekend, too! It was absolutely beautiful in Charleston! We went on the boat yesterday and it.was.awesome. Random question - other than spin, what kind of classes do you take at your gym?
ReplyDeletegirl, it gets cold in the south too! Lol we live on the coast of florida and it gets cold with the wind + being right by the water. But we are also fixing to move back to Alabama where it gets even colder! Nothing like Ohio, but, ya know ;)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great weekend! Love the half moon mani & your outfits! I tried a juicing recipes the other day with beet for the first time and discovered how much I don't like beets, haha. Loved all the other juices though :)

Did you guys get any of our rain? We were having a torrential downpour yesterday! I am in love with your purple shoes and top...purple is one of my favorite colors :) All your recent talk about spin, combined with the fact that a new spin studio recently opened near my barre studio, is making me want to take a class again! I haven't been to spin in ages but its great cardio....and I hate running, soooo. Yeah :P
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had an amazing weekend. I have a black and white striped blazer very similar to that one that I've never worn because I have NO IDEA how to style it. Love that look - I might have to invest in some ripped jeans.
ReplyDeleteOooo Love new workout songs!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely weekend! My boyfriend and I pretty much go to bed every weekend by 11 or 12, so I definitely feel ya there! I love working out to that Pit Bull song as well as Scream and Shout by Britt and Will I am!
ReplyDeleteI really want to start juicing! I was actually googling some juicers this weekend. What kind do you have?
ReplyDeleteThe weather was seriously FANTASTIC. And now its cold again, UGH! Darn Ohio!!!
ReplyDeleteWe bought a bunch of fresh produce and plan on trying some juicing in the next few days! You have inspired me!! :) I'll keep you posted on if mine turn out yummy or not!!
A juicer is going to be our next kitchen purchase. I need one!
ReplyDeleteYou are totally making me want a juicer. What brand is yours? Also where do you get your juicing recipes? Do you use a book or website or just make up your own?
ReplyDeleteyay for warmer weather! i wore shorts and tank tops all wknd and i looooved it...despite being the same shade as casper!! made me miss summer running. we run outside all the time and let me tell you....20 degree pitch black running is not near as much fun! love your and B's date night :)

ReplyDeleteWeekend weather was amazing!! My head was swimming when I was able to roll down the windows and turn my radio up loud, "is this real life?!!" It was a nice preview to the spring :)
