Makela Gets Married

Phew – busy day around here.  I got up and went for a 3.5 mile run.  It felt so nice to get up and get my workout out of the way.  Then I made our standard smoothie/coffee breakfast.  After that I showered and headed out on some errands – Babies R Us for a babyContinue Reading

Reading Books

When I went to bed last night I told myself I would be out the door and on a run by 8 and then I would work in the yard and clean the house.  But when I woke up this morning I decided it would be ok to read one chapter of The Hunger Games. Continue Reading

Sunday Fun-day…with bikes!

Yesterday was awesome.  Not only was I super productive but I spent the entire afternoon outside. Chance was up and at em at 7:30 in the morning and while I really wanted to sleep in I made myself get up and crank out a Jillian.  Level 4 of Ripped in 30.  I was still soreContinue Reading

The last sunday in which my age starts with a 2

That is correct my friends. Today is the last Sunday of my 20′s. And I spent it doing this: Before that, I spent some time at Nordstrom Rack, doing this (sadly I got home and knit sparkle tank top had a hole in it so I took it back and got something else): While ChrisContinue Reading

Sunday steak + eggs

Wow, I feel like we’re in the 50′s or something.  Yesterday I made my husband steak and eggs… Ok, but not really.  We started out the day with breakfast burritos and ended the day with carne asada. Breakfast burritos Depending on the size of your whole wheat tortilla, this makes about 4 burritos. 1 canContinue Reading

Just like riding a bike

After spending the entire day outside in the yard, (hello glorious sunshine) Chris and I got out our bikes and went on a 5 mile bike ride into Multnomah Village. And the hills (which are super tough when running), kicked my butt.  We’d barely gotten out of our driveway and hit this tiny hill onContinue Reading

Weekend Roundup

Here’s how the weekend broke down: Friday – I had the day off work so I got to sleep in, go to acupuncture, watch basketball and then greet my best friend when she got here from Seattle.  I love Chelsea.  We were roommates in college, she’s my sorority little sister, the Maid of Honor inContinue Reading

Chocolate Chunk Protein Cookies

So last week I was craving sugar like a crazy woman.  I have a huge sweet tooth so craving sugar is not totally abnormal around here but last week it was out of control.  Like I’d start craving it after lunch and the craving basically wouldn’t go away until in a huge moment of weaknessContinue Reading

Garden Party

So I mentioned here that it was a beautiful day yesterday. And we don’t get a whole ton of those in the Pacific Northwest ever, let alone in March.  Chris went outside to power wash the deck and I headed out to my garden.  I’m going to start planting all my crops in a fewContinue Reading

Just a Walk in the Park

The nice thing about the January Fitness challenge is that it’s getting Chris and I up and moving on the weekend. Luckily, the weather has been amazing so we’ve been taking advantage while we can. We’ve been going on some awesome walks exploring the neighborhoods that we’ve lived around for the past 3 years. TodayContinue Reading
