A fun filled Fourth!

Hey friends!

How was your Fourth of July?!

I started mine with a 6 mile run – it was such a wonderful way to start my day! I actually haven’t been running much lately. My workouts have been at the gym – stairs, sprinting and weights. But I wanted to breathe the fresh air and run a bit. I was really proud of my run, too! Not really fast (I think I averaged a little over 10 minute mile) but I felt strong. I used my RunGo App on my iPhone, too.

I had some black coffee and a peanut butter oat ball before my run, too.

After my run I came home and made a huge smoothie bowl – if you follow me on instagram you know I love my smoothie bowls!

I blended a half frozen banana, frozen peaches/mango/strawberries – about 1 cup, spinach, protein powder and coconut water. I topped it with some granola. Yum!

I showered, cleaned up the house and ran some errands. We had a late lunch at a local restaurant called Scotts Bar and Grill. They have pretty decent food!

I started off with a beer and a few bites of bread – really refreshing!

I was deciding between the fish tacos (I have been on a fish taco kick lately!) or some ratatouille. I saw they had ratatouille as a side on a dinner dish and it just sounded really good!

But… I was extremely disappointed.

I got a little ramekin of sautéed onion and squash. Where’s the eggplant? And the tomatoes? Totally what I was NOT expecting. Dang it! So I shared some of my husband’s rib dinner. His dinner was really good!

After we finished our meal we were deciding whether or not we were going to go watch some fire works or buy some. It was starting to rain which was a bummer! But we decided to go and pick up a few for Jordan – he loves fire works!
