Lovin' Summer

I just love summer.

We have really hit a good groove.

One bump today.

I was convinced by my very good friend, J to attend a bootcamp exercise class our gym.

It was Js' first time as well.

Our friend A also goes to this class on a regular basis.  She was there today.

Oh boy.

The class just about killed me.

We did a lot of planking.  And working on our cores.

Clearly I have no core.  Because it all hurt.  A lot.

Thankfully it all hurt J a lot too.

We made it through the class.  Even though we both thought we weren't going to make it.

Of course, we're both pretty sure we are not going to be able to move tomorrow.

Hoping the pain reliever I plan on taking at bedtime will help my cause.

After class, J & I decided we should spend the afternoon floating in her pool.

That was an excellent idea.

It was a very relaxing afternoon spent in the pool and chatting with J.

The girls and Js' daughter K(and Ks' friend B) all had fun swimming.

It was a win/win for all of us.

Tonight D decided that we should have grilled pizza for dinner.

That too was an excellent idea.

These are 2 of our favorite kinds of grilled pizza.

The one on the left is tomato/basil/mozzarella.  It is delicious.

The one of the right is a traditional red pizza with sausage and mushrooms.

Hubby grills the sausage and cooks the mushrooms on foil on the grill before making the pizza.

Both are so, so very good.

And the crust is just amazing.

I always eat way too much.

Here is the pizza cooked, cut, and ready to eat.

Yum.

All in all it was a great day.

Swimming, good friends, good food, perfect summer weather.

Yup, we've got the summer thing going for us.

Looking forward to another great day tomorrow.
