The #1 Reason to Marry a Mexican Girl

My Life

FacebookTweetPin
28 Jun

Hello! How was your weekend? I just got home from some fun at my parents’ hanging out with the fam and my favorite tiny person. Love.

I started the day with a short run and then a quick wardrobe change for sustenance. Ben and I have been spending some good time together and had a nice little morning walk to get iced coffee and a treat.

I headed to my parents to eat all their food and I was not disappointed.

They had a ton of ripe avocados! I made some delicious guacamole and flautas.

This right here is the #1 reason to marry a Mexican girl: guacamole making skills cannot be matched. Plus sometimes her family has avocado trees so you can put it on everything.

Then we spent some quality time in the pool. The water was perfection, Roxy agrees.

My aunt is very sick (and we’d appreciate prayers) so my mom and dad were gone visiting with her until dinner time. I made everyone bacon cheeseburgers, salad and roasted broccoli. I made myself a salmon patty salad because beef isn’t my jam.

I even baked an angel food cake for dessert! Look at me being a cook and stuff.

My mom found a #ShareACoke with my name on it! She’s the best because it’s a Coke Zero.

    I spent most all of my weekend shopping, planning and then hosting a bridal shower for my best friend. Turned out lovely, even though the weather sucked. Unfortunately, that meant few miles but hopefully I make up for that this week.

    After reading this (and seeing the Selena gif), I have an intense desire to watch Selena and listen to “bidi bidi bom bom.”

    But also, prayers for your aunt. Hope she gets better soon.

    Your aunt and family are in my thoughts. Our weekend was very relaxed-lots of couch time, but did venture out and completed a 3 mile run in our beautiful weather Sunday-low humidity, low temps, and a breeze!!!!

    I made more trips to home improvement stores than most people make in a year. That’s about it. However, this morning I broke my third treadmill so that’s something.

    I really wish I had an avocado tree! We have them every day it seems.

      I know! I am trying to grow one from a seed in my patio and it’s going to take years and years. It’s so hard to pay for avocado since I’ve been so spoiled.

    Had the most perfect two days with my boyfriend. We saw Ted2, went on a pack hike with our dogs and other people/dogs in the rain. It was so peaceful. Then we cooked dinner together both nights. I made the veggies and he grilled the meat. It was nice to have 48 hours together.
    Prayers for your aunt.
