As you all know Mike was on vaycay last week with the kiddos at the cottage...although I had to slave work Tues-Fri...I stayed at the cottage as well...I just drove back and forth everyday...so I guess that kinda means I was on vacation too?!?...ok well not really...but whatever
....it was soooo worth it to get to do this
Getting ready to enjoy a campfire |
Get my wall squats in
All kinds of blood vessels popping |
Get an early morning beach run in (even if I did getting the runner woe's)
Ready to Run |
Got to see J hang out (literally) in his "new" cottage relaxing place
Cheers from the Hammock |
...and a little of this with my boys on Saturday
A Rare Beach Day |
On Sunday Mike and I got to run together (yeah...thanks MIL!)...but the humidity of like 500% really kicked my running butt...and I only made it to 7km
Post Run Hydration |
...so after all the week's activities there were some sweet treats at the mailbox! About a year ago I signed up for a monthly beauty sample subscription...the membership has since changed...and comes every 3 months now instead...I think this was my best box to date...lots of goodies inside that I can't wait to try!
Loose Buttons Box |
....and who doesn't love to receive some lululemon in the mail!!!!
Lulu Goodies |
...I also finally got my income tax return cheque too...sorry - no pic of that ;)
Although it was a change of pace and a nice little break being "away" last week...there sure is something to be said about having a routine....which means that this is how my Monday morning started...back to a 5:30am wake-up call
We will PUMP. YOU. UP. |
What's one of your favourite "routine" things to do?
Who's training for a race? Where and when?

Oh I just love some family time! I am a Type A personality through and through so a routine is like music to my ears :)
ReplyDeleteAgreed...family time is the best!
ReplyDeleteMy nightly routine is something that I've done for so long I wouldn't know how to let it go - every night I lay out everything I need for my early morning workout (even on vacation!).
ReplyDeleteI did a little Body Pump this morning - it looks like we have the same barbell!
Looks like some great family time! i like my weekday morning routine of waking up at 5:30 to workout. but i gotta say i prefer my weekend routine of waking up around 7, getting coffee and then working out :)
ReplyDeleteI'm like you... I HAVE to put my clothes out the night before
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how your body gets so use to the routine you give it...glad it does 'cause it certainly makes those 5:30am wake-up calls more managable :)
ReplyDeleteYour fam is way too cute! I'm so happy you guys had some time away, even though you had to work a bit. Do I spy a pace setter skirt? Also what's the multi color stripe item? I have to know these things, dang it!!
ReplyDeleteAre those Lulu running shorts I see in that clear bag?? Let me know what you think of them!!! I have to write out my workouts, that makes them more of a routine for me. No big race schedule, but I am looking for one!!! Love the family pics!!
ReplyDeleteIt is a racer back lulu tank. I have the same one and love it!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll see a better pic of it real soon ;)
ReplyDeleteYes they are...since I already have probably 15+ pairs (seriously I do)...it's definitely safe to say that I luv them!!! They are the run speed shorts
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun time with family! My favorite "routine" thing to do is working out. It is such a big part of my daily life. When I don't workout, I don't feel like myself and I can get pretty cranky! :)
ReplyDeleteKinda sounds like cheapRunnerRhoda and I when you don't feed us :)
