Weekending
5/23/2016
Happy Monday friends! The countdown is officially on. Yup, my vacation is officially THIS WEEK and I am so excited about it! So sorry in advance for the number of times I mention it this week but I don't take many vacations so when I do finally get one I get beyond super excited about it. Ok, enough with the vacation talk since it's still a few days away. Let's jump right in to my weekend recap with the lovely Biana, shall we?
Friday morning I woke up earlier than usual so I was pretty tired and ready to crash after work. I came home, made baked buffalo chicken tacos and watched The Detour before heading to bed. Nothing overly exciting which really isn't any surprise for me on Friday night!
Saturday morning I woke up early (as usual, why oh why can't I sleep in?!) and headed up to the gym. After the gym we headed out to the mall to do some shopping. This was the first time in forever I spent hours shopping and of course I failed to take a single picture but I did get some fun things for my trip!
After shopping and dealing with the crowds and long check out lines it was time for a drink and some sustenance so we headed up to WOB to get some beer and watch The Preakness. My horse won so I was super excited! Go Exaggerator!!
Sunday morning I ran some errands before heading over to Kerri's for some pool time. We're trying to get our base tans going so we don't turn into lobsters on our beach vacation not to mention a little relaxing by the pool is good for the soul. With champagne of course :)
After the pool we headed in, got cleaned up and then walked over to Santiago's Bodega for their happy hour. On Saturdays and Sundays they do brunch in the mornings and then half priced drinks and $5 tapas for happy hour, such a great deal! After some sangria, some tapas and a few rounds of Cards Against Humanity we called it a night.
Hope everyone has a fantastic week! I'll be sitting here anxiously awaiting Friday!
