My Week in Pictures XVI

After a long, but fun weekend, for once I am okay it is Monday. Usually my weekends fly by, making me dread Monday but this wasn't the case this weekend, though! I had a pretty busy, yet also relaxing weekend and have a low key week ahead of me so all is good over here. Before we kick off the week, I'm sharing with you what I was up to all last week in picture and short caption form.


On Monday my grandparents surprised us early with our wedding shower gift: a Roomba! John was in heaven!


My legs felt good Tuesday and my pace reflected that.


On Wednesday our bathroom project was finally completed!


A nice night on Wednesday called for more grilled pizza (less cheese for me this time!).


Our school spent the week celebrating Autism Awareness. On Thursday all students were given a blue lollipop with a quote on it.


A good week calls for sundaes, am I right?! This local ice cream place is absolutely KILLING me!


We ended Autism Awareness week by wearing matching shirts and blowing bubbles on Friday!


Rachel, John, and I woke up extremely early on Saturday to go volunteer at the Hot Chocolate 5K/15K. They supplied us with endless hot chocolate to start the morning #winwin!


 We filled hundreds of cups with Nuun for the awesome finishers!


After living right outside of Philly for 26 years, I ran the Art Museum steps AKA the Rocky Steps for the first time!


We chose Pat's Steaks for lunch and it's safe to say Geno's will always be my favorite Philly cheese steak.


Sunday's weather was BEAUTIFUL! After a hot 6 mile run, John and I ate breakfast outside on the patio. Dexter joined us!



Question of the Day: Have you ever had a cheese steak in Philly? If so, where is your favorite place to go?

  1. That ice cream has me drooling at 7:30am haha. Is it too early to think about ice cream...asking for a friend ;)

    I forget the place Alex and I went for cheesesteaks in Philly about a year ago. We both agreed it was just okay and we liked the ones from the place right near our apartment better. When my family was in town for the marathon, my brother and dad really liked the cheesesteaks they got from the place in Reading Terminal Market though!

    1. I'm pretty sure all I think about is ice cream lately haha. I need to calm down!

      Geno's is the only place I reallly love them, otherwise most cheese steaks are just okay for me. John had a cheese steak in Reading Terminal a few weeks ago while in the city for work and he said it was good!

    2. While in Philly Saturday, we ended up having dinner with Alex's grandma. She mentioned brownie sundaes but then we were all talking and it was time to go. On the ride home all I could think about was ice cream and of course I missed the McDonald's drive thru to grab a cone. The rest of the night (2ish hours) all I could think about was a soft serve cone!
