Happy (day after) 4th of July!

***277.2*** 

Yay! Down 3 pounds! My body must be understanding what we are trying to do a little better now. (It's always good to be on the same page). 

My husband and I went to Sam's this weekend. (Should have planned THAT a little better)! It wasn't until got there that we realized it was the day before the 4th. Trying to move through the store was like standing in line at Disney! Especially by the meat cases. We worked out a pretty good system between the two of us though. He would park the cart "out of the way", and I would slip in and out of the crowds, nabbing this and that. He would watch me and zoom in with the cart wherever there was a clearing so that I could unload. ::High-five, chest bump::

Last night, (the 4th) we grilled out. I took some marinated chicken breasts that I found at Trader Joe's and cut them into chunks and skewered them. I also skewered some veggies (grape tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, chunks of onion... was wishing I had mushrooms) that I had marinated in Italian dressing. We also had some left over Chopped Caprese salad, so we had some of that as well. 

After dinner we walked down to the end of our street to watch the fireworks. There is a lake behind us where they do displays each year. Our trees have grown quite a bit over the last few years (as well as the construction of some towering condos which now block our view from the backyard... boo-hiss), but we were able to see from the corner just fine. The best part is not having to sit in grid lock traffic for an hour when the show is over LoL. 

I need to get my menu planned for this weeks meals. Didn't get to it this weekend. Let's see what Pinterest has to offer....
