a real day "off"

it's friday! i've been the luckiest to have this week off from work..i am a fan of my little fall break-such a nice way to start october! i've taken full advantage of it by having a girls trip visit, and once they left, our best friends showed up for a visit! so it has been nonstop fun, all day every day. with all the slumber parties going on and adventures all day i have barely slept and had so much fun having favorite people in town! today our friends di & ted are with ted's sister, so this is the one day i actually have "off." i am taking full advantage. here is what i have done:

--slept in
--spent as much time as i wanted at trader joe's {and discovered some pumpkin pancake & waffle mix!!}
--made the best honey pb cream of wheat and ate it in a mug in bed cuddled up
--finally spent some quality time with pinterest to find yummy recipes
--ate leftovers from my favorite meal on earth
--baked up some chocolate zucchini muffins
--went running and found the prettiest wildflowers..love living in CA
--ate salted caramel chocolate in bed
--cleaned up our cute apartment after all of our fun visitors

                                                                               {some evidence of my day off}

now i am patiently awaiting husband's return home from work 
{i think everybody should have this fall break off, but despite my opinions he has still had to work this week...}. luckily he gets home early and then it's date night, seeing friends, and getting ready to see fleet week in the city tomorrow! happy weekend! and take a day off soon...you won't regret it.
