Weekend Recap
I picked up my sister Casey and her dog Leela early Friday morning and we headed out of town to Rock Island State Park. I'd never been there before so I was pretty excited to check it out. I was completely blown away by the beauty of the place. It's easy to forget how gorgeous Tennessee is when you never get out to see it. We chose a relatively short trail (0.7 mile) but we hiked to the end of trail then back again. We then continued walking around the park until our legs gave out and we decided it was time for lunch. We hit up a Subway on the way home where I enjoyed a delicious veggie delight on multigrain flatbread. Here's a few pics from our hike:
SaturdayJames and I spent the entire day working on a backyard shed. We've been building this darn thing since the end of February so we were determined to finally finish it over the weekend. By 5:00pm we were both so tired that we couldn't even lift a screwdriver, yet somehow we found the energy to drive to town for some treats. I got a caramel iced coffee with soy milk from Starbucks, and he got a milkshake from Sonic. After working so hard in the hot sun all day, that iced coffee hit the spot. Neither one of us was particularly hungry that evening so we ended up just eating homemade fries with sriracha ketchup for dinner.
SundayWe got up bright and early Sunday morning to finish the shed before it got too hot. We got it done right around lunch time so to celebrate we headed to Taco Bell. I got a veggie Cantina Power Burrito with rice, black beans, jalapenos, salsa, guacamole, and lettuce. - Pro Tip: if you're on a special diet and need to make changes/substitutions to your order then I highly recommend ordering through the mobile app. It makes customizing your order so much easier, AND they always offer sweet coupons! We used a coupon for $2 off our order of $10 or more. - After lunch we swung by Lowes to pick up a car load of landscaping materials, then went back home to build a flower bed in the front yard. We were beat after toiling in the southern sun all day so when the landscaping was done we cleaned up, had some more homemade fries for dinner, this time with leftover black bean and lentil chili on top, and spent the rest of the evening on the couch watching a movie.
I racked up a ton of fit points this weekend so I'm pretty confident that weigh-in day will be a breeze. :) Savannah
