President's Day - Yes Please!

I can't wait to have Monday off (thank you Legacy for closing the office for President's Day!!) I actually just can't wait for Friday! I have been antsy this week and just excited to have a weekend in Chicago. We have a visitor coming into town from Des Moines which is exciting! Pic attached :).



We will also be celebrating Christina's birthday on Saturday at Chicago Q! Boom! Pic attached :).



Brunch plans were cancelled for Sunday, so as of now, Sunday and Monday will be a chillax time. I do have one important agenda item for Monday and that is to get over to see Miss Lexi Bug! I haven't seen her since she was 2 days old and now she is a month old and needs some Aunt P time.

I got up this morning and did a p90x workout. I just can't get enough of the p90x kickboxing! It's truly a great full body workout. When I have a good workout, I tend to think about vacation and goals. We have Ecuador tentatively planned for the end of July which makes me want to work hard at the gym. I may need to make a paper chain to start the Ecuador countdown.

I saw this today and it made me laugh.

How awesome was Spring Break in high school and college?? I have some pretty crazy memories from Florida, Cancun, Charleston, etc.

Anywho...

My meal plan for the day:
Breakfast - 100 calorie english muffin with cream cheese and soy sausage patty (out of laughing cow)
Lunch - Asian chicken salad from Al's Beef. I tell ya peeps. Get there for lunch!! It's awesome. The salad may have been a tad much but I asked for it w/o cheese which helped.
Dinner - I have some chicken breasts thawing. I am thinking grilled chicken with either baked potatoes or couscous. I guess you will find out tomorrow!

Later,
PK

P.S. How is awesome is the weather today!?!?!
