Weekending
4/25/2016
Happy Monday babes! Should I be saying "happy Monday"? Is any one every really "happy" it's Monday? Can you tell I'm not quite ready for the weekend to be over? I really don't have anything against Monday, I dislike Thursday more but any way... enough of that! I am out of the office another three days this week, tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday so if I'm slow to reply again, that's why! But for now, linking up with my girl Biana for our weekend recap!
Friday was a relaxing evening. I had an offsite meeting closer to home than my job so after work I grabbed a drink before heading home which I normally don't do on a Friday. After I got home it was pretty much the same as last weekend; dinner and catching up on The Detour in my pajamas.
Saturday morning I had planned on going to the gym but I was still pretty sore from my weekly gym sessions so instead I skipped out and had a delicious breakfast instead :) After that I just hung around the house for a bit and ran some errands before heading down to Earthday Birthday.
Earthday Birthday really isn't usually the type of event I would attend. It's a giant concert with a bunch of different bands and an eclectic crowd. I'm usually more of a Taylor Swift, Third Eye Blind or Nelly concert go-er so this was a huge change for me. But I got to see Bush, 311, Breaking Benjamin and more so it was pretty cool! Usually I have no problem forcing my way to the front but I stayed WAYYYY in the back to avoid the crazy mosh pitters but it was a lot more relaxed than I expected and the weather was amazing! Unfortunately I had to leave before 311 is over but they have a type of following that I just can't hang out with (if you catch my drift) so we hung out WAY in the back and rode some rides while listening instead of being in the middle of it all.
Sunday was a relax day. It was gorgeous weather so we spend some time outside enjoying the sunshine and warm weather before it gets too hot.

ReplyDeleteI loved seeing your snaps from Earth Day and I can totally see why you stayed far away from the front LOL!! Love that snap of you and your pup - so cute and you had the perfect Friday night in my opinion because well it's your couch and a great show on TV lol!! Have a great Monday! xo, biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteIt looked like it was a lot of fun! I'm glad you got to partake in the music without being mosh-pitted, etc. I haven't heard 311 in YEARS! Love that you and your pup got in some good quality time, too :)

Your snaps from the festival were great! I am definitely more of a T Swifter, too, but those bands do sound fun together! Have a great week :)

Sounds like a fun weekend! 311 was SO popular when I was in high school and my twin sister loved them!! Haha. :-) I can understand your reasons for staying the back and wanting to leave too. That one drink with the cucumber looks delicious too. Love your picture with your doggie too! Have a great day!! :-)
ReplyDeleteAnother great weekend in the books! I spent a good part of the weekend outside too - such gorgeous weather!

Sounds like a great weekend! I definitely agree on the T Swift fan thing and not wanting to get caught in the middle of crazy concert-ers! Xoxo

Your snaps made the Earthday Birthday look like so much fun! But I'm with you - that type of crowd, I would have been hanging out in the back too.
ReplyDeleteThat corndog and fries would have been the highlight of my weekend- YUM! And the festival sounds like it was a lot of fun too- even if it was a little crazy! :) Have a great week!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun weekend-- that first drink looks delicious! Love that last picture of you in the hat- so pretty!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great concert and the food looks yummy! You and your puppy look adorable!
ReplyDeleteI want alllll of the food that you had this weekend!

I would have gone to that concert festival purely for the corn dog and fries - OMG YUM! ha!!! Was Bush good!?
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun weekend! Sometimes it's really fun to step outside your norm - glad it paid off for you on Saturday!

You guys always have the best outdoor activities/events to attend! And whatever food is in that first picture looks ah-mazing!
ReplyDeleteI love how many fun events there are where you live! Can I move there and stay forever? I will go to your offsite meetings for you :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend! Love the pup cameos!! :) Make today work, Rachel -CubicleCouture
ReplyDeleteI was loving all your snaps from the concert festival! Glad you had a good rest of your weekend.
ReplyDeleteI totally would've been in the back too! I'm not big on crowds, then add crazy crowds and I'm done! Your snaps were so fun this weekend, I'm glad you had a good one!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great weekend filled with lots of fun and relaxation! I don't think that I could have kept up with the mosh pitters at the concert either, but the rides that y'all rode instead looked like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteI've heard Earth Day birthday is so fun! I don't blame you for staying out of the crowds though haha! No thanks to mosh pits!

that festival thing looked super fun, i probably would have stayed up the back as well lol. the food looks delicious! i am very intrigued about why you dislike thursday more than monday!
ReplyDeleteThis event looks like a blast! I saw 311 when I was in college... And I definitely catch your drift (and feel the same way!). Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot about Earth Birthday! i used to go years ago...Sounds like you caught some awesome bands though! Where is it held these days?
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to do something out of your comfort zone every once in a while

ReplyDeleteLooks like such a great weekend - a great combo of relaxing and fun! Earthday Birthday sounds like so much fun - I'm so with you though, I would stay clear of crazy mosh pitters too!

Looks like a great weekend! Years ago, I'd totally be up front at an open concert like this, but nowadays...yea, no way. Also, I love The Detour - it's hilarious!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun weekend! I would have totally stayed in the back at the Concert too! Haha! Whatever that first pic of food is, it looks delicious!
