We then went out to go to the movies, but didn't really want to see any of the movies that were playing, so we went out appliance window shopping instead. That made us so excited to be in our house. We can't WAIT! July can't come fast enough...
Saturday I had wanted to wake up and go to the gym, but I made a last minute hair appointment that made going to the gym tight, so we went outside for a walk. It was gorgeous out, and it felt so nice to be outside for a change. We planned on going shopping in the city before dinner, but we ended up just shopping in town and found me something to wear for the night. It was nice, but shopping made us both end up feeling fat. There's something about those change rooms and full length mirrors that have a knack for making you feel self conscious.
After deciding to get over ourselves and snap out of it, we head out to dinner with my Brother and his friend Tammy. We had a great time at dinner and really stuffed our faces! Um feeling fat??!! NAH!!! Tammy is a blast! She has been a long time friend of my brother's but moved to Buffalo, so we never get to see her, and haven't for years and years. I'm so glad she came and dinner was so much fun.
Sunday we went out to family breakfast and again ate and ate. Geez, seemed like a theme for the weekend! It was a great time though. :) Then we headed out to go visit with Kirk's grandparents. They're so awesome! They always put on a great spread of appetizers when we are there and there's always lots to eat. Just what we needed... :P
Yesterday was a holiday for me (and alot of people), 'Family Day'. Unfortunately Kirk had to work, so I was on my own. Family Day is a new holiday for some of us in Canada which was made to give us a long weekend in the long break between Newyear and Easter. I had a very productive day, doing laundry, putting my cd's into itunes, and I actually worked out! I went for a jog outside in the morning, and didn't make it very far, but it's a start! Then I ate lunch, and spent the afternoon setting up my ipod with some great gym tunes, and went to the gym. I was so excited to get to the gym just to listen to my music. Maybe this is key! I'm looking forward to going to the gym again tonight. Yesterday at the gym I did a great chest and tri's workout. I was able to do the same weights as I did last time I was at the gym. I actually increased my weight on some because I want to decrease my reps from 12 to 8-10 with heavier weight.
This morning I feel great! I feel energized from going to the gym, I'm awake and I'm happy! Kirk actually commented on how happy I was this morning. The gym does that??!! Who woulda thought.... ugh!
So in honour of family day, I'm going to post some pictures of our family. :D Actually, they're limited to what I have on this computer, so it's just us and our parents.
This is Kirk and I in the Dominican last year.
Kirk and his Mom. :)
