Trip to the Burgh

The boyfriend returned home this morning after a long trek of 3 flights through 3 countries. But he's back!!!!

Pittsburgh was tons of fun - I got to hang out my parents, see my BFF Jenna, and also catch up with a high school friend I hadn't seen in quite some time. But best of all my dad and I did crossfit together, a bike ride, and a hike up one of Pittsburgh's many hills. My mom would have joined but she had an accident on her bike earlier in the week and broke her right arm :( She had surgery today and hopefully will recover quickly.

I was really surprised and impressed with Pittsburgh. It was a really cool funky place - quite the hippie/alternative group there which I did not expect and was surprised by. The architecture was also beautiful. If it wasn't for the weather I could really picture myself living there.

Bullet Points

Here is what I have been up:

-I'm going to Pittsburgh this weekend to visit my parents and my friend Jenna. I can't wait!

-My soccer team won our league on Sunday! My first championship season!! 

-The weather has been gorgeous and I've been trying to get outside as much as possible.

-I'm still doing crossfit and loving it. I try to go twice a week. I can feel myself getting stronger. My dad wants us to go to crossfit together this weekend - he is beyond excited. 

-The boyfriend left me home alone for 2 1/2 weeks hike he is on a work trip to Saudi Arabia. He better bring me back some good presents to make up for leaving me :)

-My boss at work resigned which could be good or bad for me...we shall see. In the meantime I've been extra busy at work. 

-I joined Instagram which I am obsessed with now. 

That's all for now. More soon, I promise!
