Time to catch up

So it’s been awhile since I did a Weekend Shenanigans post so I thought I’d catch everyone up to speed on what I’ve been up to lately. Get ready for a long picture book.
1. Arden’s Garden 2 Day Detox
Would I do a detox again: Yes
Would I do Arden’s Garden: No
Drinking the same thing over and over again with a grapefruit aftertaste is not my cup of tea.  However it did do it’s job…. I lost 5 pounds on day 1 and I only had to do it for 2 days.  I did miss chewing so what I did was blend it with some ice.  The icee definitely helped me get my fix.

2. Days at home with good company
A great mail day with a little Hartley pic and some nom nom home made chili and corn bread in my FIRST EVER crock pot! Hello Winter! Recipe HERE!

3. Firehouse Rock
You guys are going to love this….

Have you ever just straight up walked into a fire station after you’ve been drinking?

9.  The best parents ever!
I get home from my work trip to find my fav wine, a sweet note, a clean house, a clean puppy dog, and all my laundry done!  Such a nice surprise!  Best parents ever!

10.  Round 2!  Being invited back to the Fire Station for a little dinner!
We all got to make spaghetti together!  Doing something nice for a group of people that risk their lives for us felt great!  Everyone should go to their local Fire Station and drop off groceries or baked goods!  Giving back is great!  We even set the table, held hands, and said a prayer around the table.  They even got called away during dinner to go on a call.  

11. Antique Shopping Success!!!
My abs fav find!

12.  Hot Air Balloon Show!

All and all a lot to catch up on!! Thanks for reading!  I hope everyone has a great week!
