Weekend Goodness: Margaritas, Sombreros and a Gorgeous Wedding
What a beautiful weekend we had here…it was pretty exciting. Friday night I celebrated my birthday with some friends at El Mariachi. It was such a gorgeous night! I was hoping to be out on the patio but we weren’t, it was still fun though! The margaritas are amazing at El Mariachi. I ordered the Enchiladas el Mariachi, my favoriteeee dish from here. So glad I got to celebrate with such good friends. Sadly my sister and her boyfriend were absent since they had a wedding to go to in PORTLAND, OR. (I am so jealous!)

Scenes from the Weekend
Chris’ Birthday Cheesecake – yes, I made it from scratch! It’s mint chocolate chip with chocolate ganache. The Deathcab for Cutie concert at Brewery Ommegang Saturday night.

Firecracker 4 Mile Race and the Fourth of July
Hope everyone had a great Fourth of July holiday! Yesterday I was so busy I didn’t even have time to write my race recap! My July Fourth holiday started in Saratoga Springs for the Firecracker 4 Mile Race. I ran this race two years ago with Chris and knew it would be fun so we both decided to run it again! It was super hot yesterday morning, though. I only really had one goal for this race: beat my previous time of 37:59. I was pretty skeptical that I could do it since it was a lot hotter this time around and I haven’t been doing any speed training at…
