The last 24 hours have been a whirlwind of fun! I left you all of with breakfast yesterday, then immediately went to spin class, went shopping, and then to a bachelorette party! This morning, I woke up early to clean my casa and then had Bible study in my formal living room (which I’m not sure I’ve ever even SAT in before – I felt like a grown-up and I liked it. Here’s the documentation…
Before I got picked up to go to the ROCKIES game for the bachelorette party – I grilled up this dinner. I didn’t want to be starving with a hot-dog-only option at the game.
Grilled chicken, green beans, potatoes
Coors Field! Wheeeeee – I love baseball games. Summer much?
It was the most exciting game ever – the Rockies beat the Red Sox in the bottom of the 9th with 2 home runs in a row. Phenom.
Me and the bride…we’ve known each other since preschool. People used to think we were twins when we were nuggets. Not as much now.
The crew. I’m in the red with the obligatory Coors Light – I was at Coors Field after all. After the game, downtown Denver was roaring with baseball pride, and we had fun romping around yelling “GO ROCKIES!” at strangers. A fun night.
Then this morning, after what felt like a couple minutes of sleep, I bounded out of bed to make my house tidy. Confession: one of my worst fears is having people think my house is dirty and gross.
The formal living room. Usually this room belongs to the kitties, but I locked them in the basement and took over this morning.
Food for the group.
No one ate anything, but I always like to have food (and coffee) available when people come over. It makes me more comfortable.
After they left, I had an Asian inspired salad…
Cabbage, broccoli slaw, grilled green beans, chicken, and a dressing of peanut butter + soy sauce + water
Yummers. Alright, I’m off to get my hair cut for the first time in 1.5 years! Eeeek.
Happy Thursday, friends.
Good luck with your haircut
I’m sure it’ll turn out gorgeous! I TOTALLY agree with the dirty house thing! I am already such a neat freak, but when people come over I feel like I have to SCRUB everything and arrange it all pretty, haha!
What an exciting game and beautiful people
Enjoy your Thursday!
Meg
pb + soy + water = so simple and delicious! love it!!
Good luck with your hair! I always go so long without getting it cut too, and it feels so good once you finally get around to it!
Baseball games in the summer are the best!
I am also a neat freak when people are coming to my house! I like it to look just so!
Hope the hair cut went well! Make sure to post some pics!!
Has anyone ever told you that you sort of look like Katy Perry? (Please take that as a compliment, because that’s how it’s intended…)
I think the only time I really deep clean is when my MIL comes to visit. Eep.
Haha, I actually had a student tell me that last year! Funny, funny. Thanks for the compliment!
I thought that (in the pictures at the field) too!!
That is such a beautiful picture of you!!
One of my fears is also that people will think my house is gross! I’m always scared they’ll think it smells like dog or they’ll get dog hairs all over them when they sit on the couch.
Have fun getting your hair done!
omg, 1.5 years? couldn’t tell. you look gorgeous in your pics!
i like to have food when ppl are over too. sometimes i’ll go buy food just to “have it”
Go Rockies! I heard about the game on the radio (b/c I’m a dork and I stream KBCO from my computer), and it made me beam with pride. I hate the Red Sox. I’m glad you were able to enjoy such a great game at such a great stadium!
What a fun night! I haven’t gone to a baseball game in…forever…but it’s such a blast.
(p.s. good luck with the hair cut! I need an appointment soon, myself…eeks!)
I love your hair straight! You look like a completely different person. Super cute!
what a blast!! i love how she’s wearing her veil and is all dressed up at the game! im trying to figure out what would be more fun to watch, the game or you giggling beauties <3
xoxo
Good Luck with the Hair Cut, I am sure that it will turn out amazing because your have such a great face structure!!
I also make sure to have more food than necessary whenever we have people over. I hate the idea of running out of food when people come over.
A baseball game is a great idea for a bachelorette party! Looks like a blast! And I love your formal dining room
