It's Day 3 of this crazy response to snow in Hampton Roads, and I'm loving it! I had ran a leave chit to stay home with Ryker until we figured out our nanny situation and I wound up with way more extra time off because of this crazy snow! Luckily, Vic got time off from school too, so it's been a great week of snow and fun!
When I was a kid, I stayed with my grandparents and aunt in New Jersey for a portion of the school year, that was the first time I got to see snow at the beach. For this California girl that was pretty amazing! So, of course, as soon as the snow fell here and I got my mountain man to agree to man the Armada on the crappy roads, we headed out to the beach!
We got Ryker that adorable puppy suit while I was pregnant, and luckily we found the perfect time to use it!
The beach was actually the one place that didn't have a ton of snow, if you could see closer to the boardwalk there was about ten inches of snow.
We went to one of our favorite restaurants in Virginia Beach, Catch 31, for a snow day lunch. My friend, Jade, and I recently started a Whole 30. I was horrible and on day two at Catch I cheated and had a glass of wine. I'm back on track though at started over and have been perfectly clean since. Here's the link to the Whole 30 site if you're interested! It's just what I needed to clean up a bit.
The #amileaday challenge is going great! The snow makes things a little messy, but luckily I have a treadmill for those days where I just don't want to go outside.
Day 7
I love the way that this challenge and taking the pictures have gotten me to pay more attention to my surroundings. I'm tempted to start running with my camera to get better pictures than the ones my phone can take.
Day 8
Day 9
Day 10
Day 11
Well, it's finally Super Bowl Weekend! I think we've got some chili and paleo buffalo tenders in our future (shhh, don't tell Vic I'm thinking of trying the paleo version for him!). Go Broncos!
On a quick Ryker note, that little guy has started trying to talk more! He's got yayayaya down, I'm just hoping he throws in a mamma soon :)
The ServPro guys are supposed to be back this weekend, we still haven't had any progress on our kitchen. Hopefully we have a sink for this weekend, otherwise the Super Bowl cooking will be way more difficult. Hopefully, I have some news on that soon! Have a great weekend everyone, get out there and get moving!
