Fueled By Tacos and Goldfish

this !

^^ When you haven’t stopped playing in 2 hours but need some fishy fuel!!

Hope you all had great weekends and Happy Father’s Days! I started my weekend with a little pampering with Miss Lauren! We tried out the new Mary Kay charcoal mask. Hot look!

I left Lauren’s and got a late afternoon mani/pedi — hot pink for summer!

Friday night, Thomas and I went to C&O bar. We had some celebrating to do — business goals and also our first date night out since our engagement, so it seemed fitting that we went back to the spot where we met for our first date 🙂

We shared a bunch of dishes — arugula salad, scallops with whipped cauliflower, jalapeno corn, halibut, and chocolate mousse.

On Saturday morning I took advantage of the fact that Mazen was with Matt and got up for Bradley’s ath con class, which starts at 7:55. It was a nice blend of cardio and weights. Afterwards, I joined a group at Brazos for brunch.

This is one of their breakfast plates and you can DIY your breakfast tacos.

SO DELICIOUS!

Also, so filling. I ate every bite and there was no need for lunch.

Thirst quencher! #LUMI

When I got home, Thomas was working on putting in the second of the two doors we replaced. Luckily this one went better than the first install!

She’s a beauty! It’s actually the very same Therma-Tru door I put in my old house out to the porch. The full-length window makes SUCH a difference, and I am in love!

To get out of Thomas’ way, Mazen and I went to the pool for the afternoon. Charlottesville Families In Action was founded this year to encourage kids and families to get involved in community engagement and service. They held a year-end party with soccer games and music from 123 Andres, a fun Latin band for kids, at the Fry’s Spring Beach Club. Ticket proceeds went to the Legal Aid Justice Center, so Mazen and I went to show our support and relax by the pool.

He played and swam and played and swam! We knew lots of other families there too.

Back at home, I put together a salad from the garden that we paired with some Belmont Pizza. Both boys LOVE pizza, so it’s a staple in our house. (Well who am I kidding, I love it too!)

This boy is such a good eater now, and we measured him this morning to discover he has grown a whole inch since February! (He’s slouched a little here, but straight up he hit the mark.)

Sadly, mommy hasn’t grown since 8th grade.

Sunday breakfast vibes + Father’s Day cards for all the dads!

On Sunday, Mazen spent time with Matt, Thomas went out golfing with his dad and brother, and I had the house to myself to clean, organize and relax in. I had leftover pizza for lunch and plan to spend some afternoon time at the pool.

    Sounds like the perfect weekend! How cute is Mazen?! That green juice looks healthy- I’ve been contemplating buying a juicer, but I worry I’d use it for awhile and then forget about it.

      I agree with you – when you add up the ingredient cost it makes more sense to buy it. I used to have one but it was such a pain to clean that I gave it away.

      Why not just use a blender? That way you can also get the fiber from the vegetables.

    What a fun weekend! Mazen is so cute it’s hard to handle!! I love love love green juice but we don’t have any local stores that sell it (except Whole Foods). I used to make my own but like someone said above it gets so pricey!

    WAs mazen always a good eater? My two year old is so picky and I’m wondering he will outgrow it

      Definitely not! He ate everything at age 1 and then around 2 started to pull back and we went through a few years of a much more limited palate, but we started to really work on it at age 4 and he’s doing an awesome job now! I think you have to get really intentional about it and encourage them to try new things and doing some positive reenforcement (aka bribing) to get the ball rolling.

      I moved in early 2015 🙂 What makes you think I moved again? The doors? They are just getting replaced.
