Friday was all about the Olympics Opening Ceremony, so I fixed up a spread of tomato and mozz salad, some dips, and baked some cream cheese chocolate chip cookies for the next day. Because who doesn't like to mow down on cookies while watching the best athletes in the world celebrate their accomplishments?
I mean how picture perfect is the city of Rio? You can't beat the gorgeous beaches, the beautiful mountains, and the amazing culture. Rio has been high up on my list of international cities to travel to next, but unfortunately it had to take a backseat this year to Bermuda. Because pregnant and Zika...
Saturday was my last boat day before baby girl arrives with Pamela, Kerri, and the boys. Beautiful day out on the river and the lake, just what summer days are made of.
On Sunday, I tried out a new (to me) coffee shop. I love checking out locally owned shops, and this one was super cute inside with eclectic seating and had a great outdoor patio as well to sip on your drink. I went with an iced Americano with skim milk and a shot of caramel flavor - YUM!
The rest of the day was about online shopping and catching up on the Olympics on the DVR. I cashed in my Nordstrom Note to
S'well Bottle in Turquoise or how I like to say "Tiffany Blue"
Threshold Mercury Ball Curtain Rod from Target for the nursery

Swell bottles are the best! I love the color you got!
ReplyDeleteI was laughing about what I was eating last night, too while watching the Olympics - funny how that works! So glad you had a nice weekend, looks like you had beautiful weather for the boat!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I want cream cheese chocolate chip cookies!!! haha! Sadly I haven't watched a single minute of the Olympics this weekend. I just haven't really thought about it. I do enjoy gymnastics. I love the curtain rod you picked out! Chris's dad has been trying to get me out on their boat this summer but being pregnant and being one who gets motion sick easily....and the extreme heat..has kept me off of it so far. Maybe when it cools down some.
ReplyDeleteweekends on the boat are the best! we were all over the Olympics this weekend. Did you see that gymnast who broke his leg?? OMG that was awful.
ReplyDeleteGlad you were able to get in a last boat ride before baby girl arrives! Such a fun and relaxing weekend. I love the color of the S'well bottle...you are going to love it, I want another one. Haha!

Seriously, I don't think that there's anything better than enjoying time on a boat on the river during the summer! And you're totally right about wanting to eat all the bad for you good food while watching sporting events. It's so weird, but we ate like total crap this weekend too! I hope that your week isn't too hectic!
