My grandlittle's (from Alpha Chi) birthday was on Thursday, so I went to DC for the weekend to celebrate. I joined four of my favorite Alpha Chis for a delish tapas dinner at La Tasca- they have the yummiest sangria! We had a wonderful time!
Last week i also took a new class at Lithe called "Cowgirl". The best part about this class is that we used a hula hoop! I don't know about the rest of you, but it has been quite a few years since I have tested my hula hooping skills, but no joke, it is just like riding a bike. It's got to be like muscle memory or something because I was having flashbacks of elementary school roller skating parties where there were also hula hooping competitions (which I believe I was the champion of) :) The class was an amazing full body workout and and I will definitely be taking that class again.
The only thing that really got me was in the last set of hula hooping the instructor asked us to try hooping in the opposite direction. I am not sure if you have ever tried this before, but I swear, the way direction you start your hula has got to have something to do with being right-handed or left-handed. I could not for the life of me keep the hoop up if i sent it to the left. My brain stopped working, it was really discouraging, so I stopped :)
Things coming up this week:
Lithing
Schoolwork
Trying out a new recipe
Second dress fitting :)
Bryan coming to visit for the long weekend!
Off to practice my counter-clockwise hula hoop!
