Weekend Update

Good Morning!

I meant to write this yesterday while the kids were at school, but I got stuck filling out a background investigation for a friend trying to get on at police department in Texas.   

We had a pretty good weekend.  On Saturday I took my son to a birthday party at a gymnastics place. Parents could play on all the equipment...I immediately regretted wearing a flowy top and skinny jeans...but I still got myself up on the balance beam (I did gymnastics for 9 years) and walked around. I realllly wanted to do some tricks but it's been a loooong time and I didn't want to either bust my ass or flash all the kids and other parents if my shirt came up (or my jeans ripped)... 

After the party, we went to Mex 1 Coastal Cantina again (see here ) and then went to the soccer fields to kick around the ball and fly my son's kite (that we just got out of the packaging...only had it for about 2 years...).

On Sunday we got up and headed to Folly Beach for the first time.  It was sooo windy and a bit chilly, but my son had a great time flying his kite and playing in the sand.

 You can barely see him, but there was one lone surfer out there in the water.  Even with a wet suit on, that had to be freeeeeezing.
We cannot wait to go back to Folly when it's a bit warmer.  We were going to try out Rita's Seaside Grille because I've been dreaming of these nachos that Megan from Style Me Swanky
posted on her Instagram the other day.  They look delicious.  Soon!!

If you have a J.Crew Factory near you, don't forget the 40% off women's apparel runs through tomorrow. If you spend $125, you also get 20% off.  I grabbed a few shorts and a couple of tops there the other day...see here 

Hope y'all are having a good week so far!

Le Weekend

Heeeeeey.

We had a nice weekend...

I got up Saturday morning and went to the hockey rink.  I ended up not playing goalie because we didn't have enough people.  Luckily, I brought my other gear and we played half-rink, 2 on 2 with 1 goalie.  I had to borrow a stick because I didn't bring mine...it was about 5 inches too long for me, but I still managed to score two goals. I was pretty proud of myself b/c it'd been at least a year or two since I'd even been on skates and about 12 since I'd played hockey.

Got a couple of good bruises too..including this one:

After hockey, the fam and I went to a new restaurant in Charleston (West Ashley area) called Mex 1 Coastal Cantina

My husband had the Cilantro Lime Chicken Quesadillas

 and 

I had the Cantina salad

 

The food was excellent. My husband is now obsessed with the salsa and chips they give you before your order comes....so much so that we went back to eat there on Sunday.

Saturday night we ate at Sesame Burgers and Beer. 

I had the Ultimate Grilled Cheese which you can see here on my Instagram.

It was really good. 

Hope y'all had a great weekend! :)
