Scenes from the Weekend: March 2014

March 10, 2014 | Uncategorized

We had an absolutely beautiful weekend here in the south. Temps in the upper 60’s/low 70’s and mostly sunny. It truly is amazing how much my mood lifts when the weather is nice!

I took advantage Saturday and went for a 3 mile run. It felt so good to be running outside in a tank top in the sunshine, I think I smiled most of the way.

We were also able to get some work done outside. I bleached the back patio and front sidewalk, and Bobby did some weed pulling and bush trimming in the back yard. It’s not all done yet, but looking so much better!

Bella gets mad when she can’t see over the fence and we are looking over.

We also took the dogs on nice long walks, toured the new St. Jude Dream Home in our neighborhood, and just sat outside chatting. Sunday evening we BBQ’ed in the back yard, enjoying the extra hour of daylight.

It was a great weekend, and I can’t wait for more sunny, warm day!

QOTD: What did you do this weekend? How is the weather where you live?

    We had another cold snap on Saturday but things are warming up. I really hope spring weather is here to stay for a while.

    Well your weather is better than ours here in Minnesota. I did enjoy a 6 mile run in 40 ish degrees. That felt great after sooo much cold. Ready for real spring

    We had a beautiful weekend in central Florida, too. Started the day with a short run and then made it to MK on Sunday for Dapper Day and the premiere of the Festival of Fantasy parade.

    I agree…the weather was amazing this weekend on the Gulf Coast! Today is gorgeous too! It’s definitely starting to feel like spring!

    Upper 60’s/low 70’s and sun? Sounds perfect. Out here in LA, we were in the lower 80’s. It made for a pretty warm Los Angeles Marathon day. Glad I wasn’t running in the marathon! I think winter decided to skip an appearance in Los Angeles this year.

    Nothing says spring/summer quite like the grill!

    I spent the weekend teaching my 10 year old how to write in cursive. Yeah, it was about as fun as it sounds. Actually, he did much better than I thought he would. I did get a good almost 6 mile run in that felt much better than my previous after-Princess runs. I’m in FL, so it was absolutely beautiful here too.

    So jealous of you weather, though it has been warm here in PA (40-50). Looks like you had a wonderful weekend!

San Diego snaps. 📸 Did you know Disney makes it San Diego snaps. 📸 

Did you know Disney makes it SO easy to fly into San Diego for a @disneycruiseline vaca? 🚢 (ad)

Let’s break it down :
1.) Flew into the San Diego airport
2.) Took a Lyft to @grandhyattsandiego which is super close by
3.) Walked right downstairs for dinner @seaport_village 
4.) The next morning you walk downstairs to a special table in the lobby to check in with DCL, show your passport, be extra luggage tags etc.
5.) Leave your luggage at the door of your hotel room. They will collect it and put it on the bus for you. 
6.) Meet downstairs at your designated time and board the bus
7.) Super short 5 min ride to the port on the Disney bus
8.) They handle your luggage, you just get on the ship! 🚢 

It was so nice having everyone nearby and coordinated for us! I highly recommend arriving a day before your cruise anyway if you are flying, and Disney made it seamless. 
Note that right now, the Grand Hyatt is the only San Diego area hotel that has the service of the Disney bus transportation to the port.

We just set sail on the Disney Wonder for a magical 3 night west coast sailing! But the fun won’t stop when we disembark, we will be continuing the trip to Disneyland so don’t go anywhere! All the fun is happening right now in my stories! (And saved to a highlight if you miss some!)

A huge thanks to Disney and @bestdayevervacay for making this possible and sending us on this trip! ✨

Behind every beach day, every poolside moment, eve Behind every beach day, every poolside moment, every bit of Disney magic, photoshoot, late night, and smiling photo, there are hours of work, rejection emails, a few missteps, and a lot of learning. 

Grateful for every single step of the journey, even the hard ones. ✨

#ad Turns out my patio didn’t need a full makeover #ad Turns out my patio didn’t need a full makeover… it just needed the right planters 🌿 

I walked into @loweshomeimprovement (garden center = instant mood boost) and found these allen + roth & planters that look designer but are actually budget-friendly. Exactly the kind of upgrade I love: big impact without the big price tag. 

Swipe to see the before → after because WOW. New planters + fresh plants completely brought this space back to life. I love how versatile they are too, perfect for patios, porches, or even indoors. If your outdoor space is looking a little… tired (same 😅), this is your sign to refresh it for spring. 

Grab them in-store at Lowe’s or through the link in my bio 🔗

It’s Friday. Jesus is praying. Peter’s a sleeping. It’s Friday.
Jesus is praying.
Peter’s a sleeping.
Judas is betraying.
But Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
Pilate’s struggling.
The council is conspiring.
The crowd is vilifying.
They don’t even know that Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
The disciples are running
Like sheep without a shepherd.
Mary’s crying.
Peter is denying.
But they don’t know that Sunday’s a comin’.

It’s Friday.
The Romans beat my Jesus.
They robe him in scarlet.
They crown him with thorns.
But they don’t know that Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
See Jesus walking to Calvary.
His blood dripping.
His body stumbling.
And his spirit’s burdened.
But you see, it’s only Friday.
Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
The world’s winning.
People are sinning.
And evil’s grinning.

It’s Friday.
The soldiers nail my Savior’s hands to the cross.
They nail my Savior’s feet to the cross.
And then they raise him up next to criminals.

It’s Friday.
But let me tell you something,
Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
The disciples are questioning.
What has happened to their King.
And the Pharisees are celebrating
That their scheming has been achieved.
But they don’t know It’s only Friday.
Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
He’s hanging on the cross.
Feeling forsaken by his Father.
Left alone and dying.
Can nobody save him?
Ooooh It’s Friday.
But Sunday’s comin’.

It’s Friday.
The earth trembles.
The sky grows dark.
My King yields his spirit.
It’s Friday.
Hope is lost.
Death has won.
Sin has conquered and Satan’s just a laughin’.

It’s Friday.
Jesus is buried.
A soldier stands guard.
And a rock is rolled into place.
But it’s Friday. It is only Friday.
Sunday is a comin’! ☀️
