Good morning and happy Friday!

You know when you just have a week that feels like “Yeah! This week was awesome!!”?? Well, that was me this week.  And Brian too!  We both received great news about things going on in school and I have some other fun things I’m working on to help further my future career as a dietitian.  Woo!

In addition to having a great week, we also have some fun Saturday evening to Sunday plans with friends in the mountains.  Lots to smile about around here 🙂

Now, it’s time for a little Five Things Friday where I recap different things I did during the week, things that are making me happy, and cool things I’ve found around the web.  Enjoy and TGIF!

Five Things I Ate:

• An easy egg scramble with broccoli slaw, spinach, Texas Pete’s hot sauce and a side of strawberries and bananas

• Italian Chicken Burgers with baked sweet potato fries and roasted veggies.  Yum!

• A nutty Asian-inspired stir fry meal with something new to me…sweet potato noodles! Guys, I think I have a new obsession (and this recipe will be coming to the blog soon!)

• Coconut flour pancakes topped with peanut butter, fruit and a side of iced cold brew with coconut milk

• Lunch bowl with spinach, roasted vegetables (that I made a big batch of on Sunday), radish, leftover chicken burger (see above), sauerkraut, and dijon.

Five Workouts I Did:

• Taught Bodypump
• Boot Camp
• CoreCardio Circuit (so fun!)
• 4 mile run with Bernie
• Heading to Tabata this morning

Five Things Making Me Happy:

• Running season!! This week I signed up for the Bolder Boulder 10K with Brian and the Colfax Half Marathon.  Both races are in May, so I plan on starting my training in a few weeks.  I can’t wait to up Bernie’s mileage along with mine this time around!

• This hands-free leash that goes around my waist for running with Bernie.  Honestly, I was a bit hesitant about using it at first, but I really love the hands-free feel while running and recommend it for anyone running with their pooch! (Similar leash here!)

• Last week’s tests! Last week, I had two tests and I got great grades on both.  Yep! That’s totally making me happy 🙂
• Brian’s great school news and my great school news.
• The sun!  A few days were quite chilly around here, but the sun has been shining bright and I seriously love it.
