Before we get to all the fun of the weekend though, let’s take a look at some other highlights from my week!
Favorite Breakfast
, I love when Fabio cooks me breakfast. I think there’s just something about having someone else cook for you that seems to makes the food taste better. Is it just me?
I was especially loving his toast + sriracha + avocado + egg this week, but he list to data also made me an arepa with cheese and an egg on another day. Delicious!Hello there! How was your weekend? Mine was absolutely amazing and included not one but TWO very important life milestones. Crazy! Let’s take a look, shall we? Since so much happened, this recap is actually pretty long. Be prepared for lots of scrolling!
Thursday
I actually wound up working from home on Thursday because….we closed on our town house!

Fabio and I are now the proud owners of a town house in the heart of Ballston (in Arlington, VA). We could NOT be more excited and spent some time on Thursday walking around the house in complete shock.
We’ve never had more than a one bedroom apartment together, so to be able to call “home” an actual town house with two bedrooms, a loft, and STAIRS is pretty unreal. Yay! We were totally on cloud nine.
Sadly on Thursday evening Fabio had to fly out to Miami for a bachelor party, so I was on my own after that. I wound up grabbing dinner with my dad, meeting with the air conditioning guy who needs to fix our HVAC unit, and then binge watching Parenthood while painting my nails. Not a bad evening at all!
Friday
Friday morning began with a sweaty workout at one of my favorite spots: Urban Athletic Club!

I was joined by my friends Anne and Kathleen, who is seven months pregnant and still going strong when it comes to workouts. Amazing! I hope I can stay as fit and look as adorable as Kathleen when I’m that pregnant.
After class, I headed home to shower and then drove over to my mom’s house, where I stayed for the majority of the weekend! (I had off from work due to summer flex scheduling
We spent some time sitting by the pool and soaking up the sun while chatting about the new town house, work, the wedding, and other mother-daughter stuff.

For lunch my mom made us fried squash blossoms, pizza balls, and a fresh salad from the garden. Delish!
