Over the past few years, JP and I have successfully made ourselves as busy as possible. I love to explore and tend to make JP jump in and explore with me! We travel a ton, but even when we have a “relaxing weekend at home,” there isn’t much relaxing about it. I like to say yes to everything and explore! That being said, so many people don’t love Houston, especially this time of year. Personally, I love Houston. There’s so much to do on our weekends we’re in town!
Friday:
- Home Goods shopping in River Oaks for new living room accents…sneak peek coming soon!
- Chillin’ out, relaxin’, actin’ all cool…oh wait, that was the Fresh Prince…
- Dinner date at Lupe Tortilla with my main squeeze!
- An attempt to watch Divergent after purchasing it on DVD. Now I love this book series and the movie, but I was too exhausted to stay up and watch it! Unfortunately, this wild party animal was passed out on the couch by 8:30pm.
Saturday:
- Early wake up call for week 1 of Runner’s High running club! I almost didn’t go because I was so tired, but I’m really glad that I decided to get my bootie out of bed. A nice, easy 5.5 miles was in store for us from Memorial Park to Uptown Park. Let marathon training season begin!
- Errand running before heading to my parents’ house in Sugar Land! Look at what we got…
- Amanda’s 25th Birthday Celebration!
- We invited a bunch of friends to my parents’ to celebrate my cousin’s 25th 🙂 She just moved here from North Carolina with a friend and was in need of a fun, relaxing day!
- Food, fun and drinks were had by all that’s for sure!

Maggie wanted the dino piñata SOOOO bad! |
All the beautiful ladies! Caitlin – Ashley – Alison – Alex – Amy – Amanda…lots of A’s! |
- We swam, played basketball, threw washers, talked…a lot…, grilled fajitas, played with the pups, drank margaritas and had an amazing day! It was just what the doctor ordered.
Sunday:
- Lounged around outside in my parents’ amazing backyard, sipping coffee and reading the paper.
- Laid outside with a good book.
- Went swimming one more time with Mr. Moose
- Ran a few errands and spent the rest of the day relaxing until…
- Fantasy Football Draft!!!
It was a great weekend, equal parts busy, productive, fun and lazy! I love our weekends in Houston! Next weekend, we’re back to gallivanting around the US! Here’s to another Monday and another week. {A short one for me! Score!}
