Our weekend and the hottest Monday ever

We had a beautiful, sunny weekend here in Halifax around 30 degrees each day. SO HOT OUT. It was great though! We weeded the garden, ran some errands, cleaned the cars (hubby not me) and went to a kiddie birthday party on Saturday morning...then went to my cousin's fiddle concert in Sackville in the afternoon, and a BBQ with my family that evening. Sunday, did more errands, took it easy and meal prepped and had my in-laws over for a BBQ. It's impossible to cook indoors in this kind of heat!

We also watched 2 interesting Netflix movies this weekend: Take me Home and Your Sister's Sister. I am a huge fan of Joel from Parenthood aka Sam Jaeger (who isn't? A stay at home Dad who is also a carpenter/contractor? Helloooooo)...and he starred in Take Me Home with his real-life wife. It was a cute story. Honestly though, if you've seen these pics around of Ryan Gosling talking to "women everywhere"...

I feel like I could make some with Sam Jaeger. He's not as famous, but he's so easy on the eyes! Ok...girly moment over. Almost.

Your Sister's Sister had some humor, and it starred from Mark Duplass The League and Emily Blunt, who I like, so it was a good one. Terrible ending though...don't watch it if you can't stand cliffhangers! Ugh!!

All in all, I feel like I re-charged my batteries a bit after a stressful week and I also got our kitchen floor washed and the bathrooms cleaned so I'd call that a successful weekend!! We spent a bit of the afternoon yesterday outside with Molly in her little kiddie pool and with the hose, and this resulted:





I just finished a strength training circuit that was CRAZY intense, but it got my heart rate up and my body sweating, so I can't complain. Now to have a protein shake and call it a night on that front. I'm going to prep my lunch for tomorrow and fold some laundry :)

We have another relatively quiet weekend coming up - anyone have any good Netflix recommendations? We have the American and Canadian versions, which gives us some good variety, but we spent a lot of time browsing.

See ya tomorrow for Tuesday's Tot Talks! I'm going to start off this series with Molly's birth story, which I haven't told on the blog before :)
