High Five For Friday- 11.08.16

What a week!  I have been completely enamored with the Summer Olympics.  I have spent a good portion of my time checking the T.V. this week to catch up on how Canada is doing in the games.  Here are the five highlights from my week:

1.)  Watching Penny Oleksiak swim this week has been amazing.  She has won 2 Bronze medals, 1 Silver and 1 Gold!  She is only 16 years old and I am completely blown away by her talent.  Miss. E was as excited as we were to cheer her on!

2.)  We had a successful garage sale on Saturday.  You can read all about my tips and tricks for a successful sale here.

3.)  We had a fun time with our friends this weekend.   We did supper and then had a fire after the kids went to bed.  It was relaxing and enjoyable to spend time chilling and eating yummy campfire treats!

4,)  I have signed up to run a 5 km race in September.  Hubby decided to train with me (yay!) and we have done a good job sticking to our training schedule.  We run 3 times a week and do strength training 3 times a week.  I love working out with Hubby.  It makes it fun!

(I am super sweaty and out of breath in this picture.  Yikes!  Thank goodness for the post-workout shower!)

5.)  Our garage sale day was absolutely beautiful.  It was sunny and hot.  The rest of the week has featured a lot of rain.  We have been getting outside for walks and park time when the sun is shining.  Miss. E loves going for walks (more like runs!) and she is becoming quite the expert at navigating the playground. 

I hope you all have been enjoying the Olympics!  The American Women's gymnastic team was so impressive to watch!  Excellent!  I have also enjoyed watching all the synchronized diving and volleyball.  What are your favourite events?
