Sunny Day Trip

Hi! Happy Easter everyone! Since I had the day off from work yesterday, Blake, Layla and I took a drive out to McMinville to meet up with some friends and enjoy the sunshine.

One part of personal health that is often overlooked is leisure. You could adhere to every healthy diet and workout rule in the book, but if you don’t take the time to relax and have fun with loved ones, your health can suffer. This article explains some of the connections between how much leisure time a person takes and their overall health.

So, in the spirit of taking time to enjoy life, here are some of the highlights from our day yesterday:

Layla and I loaded up in the truck and ready for the drive

Salad and Tofu Lunch at Whole Foods

Raw Chocolate Coconut Cookies for Snacking

Back country roads in the Dundee Hills

There were all types of vineyards and farms too

We found some adorable lhasa apso puppies for sale and just had to stop and hold them

And Layla got a little jealous! She had a lot of fun running around the park though.

Then we met up with some friends for drinks and dinner. We were there for three hours just catching up and having fun. I love when we get to go out to McMinville because it’s so beautiful out there and we get to spend time with some of our good friends. It’s days like this that remind me that life is not all about working hard and crossing a million things off of my to-do list. It feels good to take a break, spend time with those you care about and appreciate life’s simple pleasures.

I’ll be back tomorrow with an Easter re-cap. Have a very special Easter (or Sunday if you don’t celebrate) and take some time to relax and have fun!

Take care,

Kilee
