Wednesday was the first day of school and it went really well!! We went to a pizza party after school. The kids ate pizza and I picked up Luna Grill for my husband and I on the way home for dinner. 

Greek salad with a chicken kabob. Insanely good.

Breakfast yesterday morning was toast with peanut butter and half a grapefruit. 

After I dropped the kids off at school, I went to spin class. Feels good getting back onto a regular workout schedule!

I got my nails done, then grabbed a quick lunch at Marketplace Grill before heading to a meeting at the school.

Another Greek salad with a chicken kabob. 

We went to my son's final summer basketball game last night. He made it into the finals but unfortunately, their team lost so they came in second place. Still nothing to be sad about! It was such an exciting game…neck and neck the whole way through.

We decided to try the Thursday Taco Night at our club in our neighborhood. I ordered the carnitas which came with tortillas, guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo.

They were just ok. The tortillas were pretty stellar though!

Breakfast this morning was the same as yesterday.

After drop off, I had a PTO meeting, then it was off to Cardio Muscle class. Lunch was tuna salad, veggies and ranch.

Tonight we are staying in and barbecuing. Taking advantage of every last minute of summer.

What are your weekend plans?
