Oh hey there last week of August! We have one more weekend left before football season dominates our lives weekends. This weekend was fabulous. We had a day of activities and a day of laying on the couch doing absolutely nothing.
Friday night when I came home, Chris surprised me with the Fitbit HR! He had it all wrapped up in a gift bag and even had a sweet card and said it was a just because I love you present. So sweet! So far, I am loving it!!!
Saturday started off with a great work out cutting grass. My fitbit said that I walked nearly 3.5 miles cutting the grass. Hells yes! After that, it was time for a well deserved lunch! We met some friends at Chuy’s and this deliciousness was to be had…
One of my favorite things about Chuy’s is all the dips! So many choices, what is a tortilla chip to do?
While we were leaving Chuy’s, we decided to head over to Toys R Us. Chris found his next car…
And I found mine…
I mean come on, you could play real life Mario Kart with that sweet ride!!!
When we were leaving Toys R Us, there was all this candy up front. We started to get all nostalgic on how awesome it was to go to candy stores when we were little and pick out exactly what you loved. Then we were like hmmmm are there any candy stores around here??? Our friend Josh took to Google and found one in Crestline Village so we headed over there to Sugar! So appropriately named, right?
It was like heaven. We were as happy as kids in a candy store!!! Literally!!! We filled up on all the sweets and then went to play some life size chess.
It was humid as fuck outside, as you can see from my hair. So we did what needed to be done, we headed to the adult candy store, World of Beer! Duh! Do you even know me?
While we were there, we planned to have a get together at our house that evening. We had the most guests over that we have ever had since we lived in this house! It was nice having everyone over….and not having to drive 30 minutes to an hour back home when we all parted ways. Chris and I cleaned up the snacks and walked to our bedroom. It was fabulous!!!
Sunday started off with grocery shopping before the rain. We grabbed some Moe’s BBQ on the way home and parked ourselves in front of the TV for a Once Upon a Time Marathon. We are well in to season 2 now! My Fitbit only say about 5,100 steps yesterday compared to over 15,000 on Saturday. Oops.
Kristen talked me in to doing Snapchat on Friday. I am still trying to learn my way around it. I am such a newb. So you know…maybe add me if you are in to that! 🙂 LifebyNadine
I hope that everyone had a fabulous weekend. I am linking up with Biana!

loved seeing your weekend. one of my fave memories with my youngest sis was going to the candy store (we are 18 yrs apart) and letting her get whatever we wanted. $50 later, totally worth it.
How stinking sweet is he with your new present!! you’ll have to let us know a full review of how you like it! I saw the candy land picture this weekend and my thought was – what is she going to get LOL!! So happy you had a great weekend!! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
Love all the food as usual and I would have totally walked away with a toy car as well! PS Im still learning snapchat and Im not sure Ill ever freaking get it!
You always eat the best looking food!!! Sounds like a fun weekend.
Sounds like it was a great weekend. I totally am now following you on snapchat!
yay snapchat! haha. sounds like a fun weekend girl, that candy store looks legit!
You will love the FitBit! Add me 🙂 ashchase@nc.rr.com
Your hubby cracks me up!! A kid at heart!! I love your necklace in the cute lovebirds selfie!! I heart my Fitbit big time! And DIPS, oh I stinkin love a dip extravaganza! Yum! Happy Monday friend!
Hooray for the new Fitbit!!! I LOVE mine, I just have the little Zip but it still does the job! 😉 Definitely keeps me motivated to move more during the workday. And Chuy’s is seriously the bomb- love love LOVE their food!
I LOVE my fitbit!!! Its seriously one of my favorite things I own. Mine broke after a couple months and I was so sad, luckily I saved my receipt so I got a new one no problem. Saturday I walked over 20000 steps and then Sunday I was so lazy and barely did over 2000. I unfortunately have a really long stride so my friend consistently gets 2-3000 more steps than me in a day even if we go everywhere together 🙁 Hope you enjoy your new toy!
Chuy’s really is the best! I just want to eat all of the dips!
Yay for the new FitBit, such a sweet surprise! And that Mario Kart is the most amazing toy ever, how awesome is that!? And all that food looks AMAZING – yum!
Have a fabulous week gurlie <3
Haha I love that you guys went to Toys R Us and to the candy store! But good call on stopping by the adult candy store as well 😉
I’m jealous of your weekend! Impromptu get-togethers are the best! We need to start a new show… Not sure id get into once upon a time. Do you love it? Happy Monday lady!
love the weekend eats YUM!!!! and kayla loves that frozen car; every time we’re in toys r us she makes a beeline for that area and will clothesline a bitch to get to it if anyone is in her way LOL
It’s always nice when you can just go to bed when the party is over instead of driving home.
I love a good couch day!
Yayyyy for just because gifts, they are the best kind because you’re not expecting them!
I just read they are opening a WOB here so now you can schedule your vacation!!
What’s diff about a FitBitHR??
Dude. Having a real life Mario Kart would be so bad ass! I’d be taking it to the mailbox and shit! lol
That candy store… I could do some damage there.
What a sweet gift and gesture from the hubs! All the food from Chuy’s looks delish! Now Im craving Mexican lol
I so need to buy a new Fitbit. I love knowing my steps! Giant chess sets are so cool to me. I just need to learn to play! Ha! I’m a huge fan of Mexican food and dip, so that looks like heaven to me!
I have never been to Chuy’s but oh my gosh it looks amazing! I need to find one near me or something!

Aw, just because presents are the sweetest! 🙂 and ooh ooh add me on Snapchat! @alyssagoesbang 🙂
Scott loves his Fitbit, but seems to leave his charger at hotels when he’s traveling! He’s taken to “making” one out of an old Blackberry power cord, and would you know. That one has YET to disappear (no matter how hard I try). I would love a giant game of chess, but not this time of year! – Dorrie @ – Dorrie @ Rt 1 US 1
Dang girl, looks like you had an awesome weekend!! Such a good choice on the Mario Kart car, for reals I love that game so much haha and that giant chess set- WHATTTTTTTT. It’s like Harry Potter status 🙂
xo, Candace | Lovely Little Rants
Give me all the Mexican food!!! OMG that Mario Kart is amazing. How I wish I was a kid, that would be at the top of my list. Such a sweetie, we need to be Fitbit friends…this heat needs to go away so I can add some steps! I’m on Snapchat and just don’t love it yet.
You don’t see candy stores much around anymore. What fun. The fun size chess game looks fun.
He looks good in that car!! Haha! 🙂 And yum, chuys! so good!
Such a sweet gift from Chris! Also, that shit from Chuy’s looks amazing! I love all of their dips — especially that jalapeno ranch — and yes to Sugar! They have those gummy sharks that are the best things in the whole world — also chocolate gummy bears!
is that white cheese dip??? I am on. the. way. We only have one restaurant in DC with white queso and it’s reaealllllyy far away from me ):
Hell yes to the mario kart!
I really wanted to like the Sticky Toffee Pudding Ale, because I would chop off someone’s arm if they tried to steal a bite of my sticky toffee pudding, but it’s just not as good as the dessert. I mean, it is beer, so there’s that.. but still, I had such high expectations.
