fun at the park

Today started out with a great total body workout with the best workout buddy a girl could ask for. Lisa and I did about an hour of strength training, and left the gym hobbling down the stairs. I think that’s a good sign of a great workout.

I arrived home and whipped up a batch of pumpkin/banana oats for Andrew and I.

Ingredients for 2 bowls: 1 cup oats, 1 cup almond breeze, 1 cup water, 1/2 cup pumpkin, cinnamon and nutmeg. Toppings included: coconut, pumpkin seeds, granola and some mini peanut butter chips.

It was another great day, so we decided to load Jersey up and take her to the park. She got her first ride in the new car. We were wondering how she’s react being in the trunk, but she was great!

In hindsight, I’m super glad I talked the sales guy into tossing in the cargo mat for the back. You would not believe the amount of hair that comes off that dog!

I think she likes all the windows!

Perfect opportunity to practice some photography. I’d like to think I’m getting quite good at capturing pictures, but its pretty easy when you have such a great looking subject! 

She always manages to find sticks bigger than her head.

And then rolls on it to make it hers.

Love this shot. They say some dogs look like their owners, do you see the resemblance? :) 

We also made a Costo run today. Look what I found, 6 of them for $9.99! 

I was for craving a simple Italian meal for dinner. Cheese tortellini with marinara sauce, ceasar salad and home made garlic bread.  Totally hit the spot.
