Well hello! We have a lot of ground to cover over the passed weekend, and I mean that both literally and figuratively. My friend Erin stayed with me until Sunday because there was much to be done in the woods where Quinn and I will be getting married. Quinn picked up another job on weekends, so Erin and I got to work out in the yard with Quinn's folks until he came to join us later on.
Before the festivities of the day began, I took Erin to Zumba to jump start the day! We had a blast and got a really good workout as well. This time, our Zumba instructor packed the most intense workout into 45 minutes and didn't stop. Talk about sweat!
After Zumba, we went out to lunch in Snohomish at a little Thai restaurant and split the Swimming Rama & Pad Thai dish. It was divine, especially when we were so hungry after that workout. With the sun shimmering in the sky, it was a lovely afternoon to get things done in the yard.
Items on the list to do on the wedding grounds: move stump rounds of a dead, fallen tree out of the pathway, limb and clean up tree branches, hurl logs onto a burn pit, and dream about the beautiful wedding that will take place out there! Within a couple hours, we had made great progress! Quinn's mom was in charge of the tractor, which made the biggest difference I think. We towed up the earth and leveled out the grounds, then rearranged ideas of ceremony and reception placement.
My mom came to check it out towards the afternoon. It made me so happy to have all the people I love so much in one place! We worked on assembling the invitations and addressing envelopes as well. Everything is falling into place so well, it feels like a fairy tale - the grounds especially look like a fairy land.
This was a nice, long weekend for sure! I don't think I'll write down every meal exactly this time. Keep in mind to eat healthy, you know what is good and what's not. Think of the caveman diet - if a caveman could eat it, then so could you. Could a caveman get a hold of a candy bar? A bag of chips? A pudding cup? No. He could only eat healthy meats, veggies, and fruits that the land has to offer naturally. No excuses. Are you serious about getting fit? Processed foods are not what our bodies were designed to consume. I know they are yummy, but if you're serious about doing your body a huge favor, it's time to put away the cheese puffs and pick up something wholesome.
Don't forget to get lots of sleep and water too! I average about 8-9 hours per night. I know that not everyone can do that, but while my life allows for it, I will take advantage of it.
10 weekends left until it's wedding time! 10 weekends of planting grass, trimming trees, weeding gardens, and preparing to marry the man I love with every fiber of my being. The word 'excitement' doesn't quite cover how I feel!
