Holy Moly it’s December! I cannot believe there is only one month separating us from 2013! But instead of dwelling on how fast time is flying, let’s move on to the fun (and not so fun) and festivities of this weekend. I did a pretty good job of documenting my weekend on Instagram and though it would be fun to share my InstaWeekend.
Friday
I got an e-mail confirming my registration for the upcoming Fitmixer Bootcamp which is starting in January. I am so excited to get my booty kicked and try their products!
After picking Tommy up from work, we headed out to sushi for dinner. Amazing as usual. Munchkin is starting to get the hang of using chopsticks and it was a lot of fun to watch him pick up a piece of sushi and get super excited.
After dinner Tommy suggested we stop for something sweet, and who am I to say no to desserts. We stopped at Cafe Riviera in Greenpoint and to my surprise, they had a new item for sale – macaroons! You have not lived until you’ve tried a coffee macaroon.
ย Saturday
I woke up on Saturday to the pleasantly surprising news that we were heading to the AT&T store to upgrade our phones. I am now the proud owner of a sexy white iPhone 5. After turning to twitter for some advice, I decided on the Incipio Stowaway case and am patiently awaiting it’s arrival so I can take the stupid plastic off my phone.
Since Saturday was also the day of my mom’s 50th Birthday party, I had to run a few errands associated with the party. Picking up the cake was my favorite! My dad and I stopped in for a cappuccino and cannoli break! (Judging by the desserts in the post, Fitmixer Bootcamp can’t come soon enough!)
After that it was come home, shower and get ready to party! My mom decided that it was her birthday, she didn’t want to spend hours cooking and prepping the food, so she had it catered. This pineapple tree was my favorite!
Sunday
After the fun of Friday and Saturday, Sunday was very low key. Just some kombucha and corporations. Even though it’s the holiday season, it’s still finals season! :/
Other than cleaning up the house after the party, my whole Sunday was spent in the books. Not the best Sunday, but in two more weeks I’ll be free from the books for a month, so I can’t complain!
What did you do this weekend?
