Tonight was a fun night!
After a quick dinner on the grill…
…and a medium McDonald’s orange milkshake to share (delicious!)…
Ryan and I leashed Sadie up for an evening of fetch at the dog park!
It’s hotter than Hades in Orlando right now, so we thought Sadie would enjoy running around at the park since the nearby lake offers some relief from the heat.
I love it when Sadie makes a beeline for the lake and then plops down right beside her ball. She’s such a little ham.
Ryan and I even stepped out of our flip flops and got our feet wet in the lake. Feeling the sand between my toes really made me want to go on a nice beach vacation.
I think Sadie was more than happy with this evening’s activity.
And now it’s time to update my iPod with some new workout tunes. Thanks for your song recommendations on the PBF Facebook page today! I’m using a bunch and will be sure to share my new playlist in the morning!

What a fun family night!
AWW! i love pics of sadie- LOVE THEM!! ps.. those shrooms are grilled to perfection!
SO jelz! You almost make this city girl wish she had a BBQ & a big backyard rather than a fire escape 😉
Wait? Did I miss something? McD’s has orange milkshakes?
i know!!! ryan told me about them! they taste like an orange creamsicle. so, so good.
I had NO idea they had that…I used to love creamiscles back ‘in the day’. During recess of grade school, I always got an orange creamsicle 🙂
Your dog photos are so clear!
An orange milkshake? That sounds super good.
And how hilarious that the caption of Sadie’s pic says “Wilson?” — I had just put Castaway on my Netflix list!
haha i was wondering if anyone would catch that one!
Updating my iPod always makes me so excited to get to the gym so I can listen to all my new jams ASAP!
I thought that Orlando was hot, but then I came down to Miami for the summer! Ouch…
oooo I want a orange milkshake now! And I love having a new playlist to work out to, makes me so excited to listen to my new tunes and then the workout flies by!
Love the Sadie pics always! So cute!
And I love the dinner on the grill, we have not grilled out yet this summer, hoping to this weekend!
Ohhh I’ve been meaning to update my ipod with some new tunes… i’m gonna have to go check out what the word is on your FB page!
What a great way to cool off on a hot night!
I can’t wait to grill in our new yard! I can barely contain my excitement! 🙂
I am loving that caption under Sadie’s photo. Gotta love Wilson. I always tell my BF he was my favorite character in the movie–I mean, there were basically only two, and the volleyball was totally cute during the entire thing!
geez—can your dog BEEE any cuter?!?
Last Friday Night is my current Running Jam – About 9 min mile song…
I’ve never had an orange milkshake before, but it sounds tasty!! 🙂
I didnt even know Mickie Dee’s had a orange shake! they only have chocolate and vanilla in my hood haha 🙂
Oh how I love kabobs! They are such a great summer meal 🙂
Aw, I love grilling nights! So fun and relaxing. 🙂
Awww Sadie! She looks so happy!
Those kabobs look awesome – wanna send some my way?? 😉
What a happy Sadie… One of our dogs when I was little would run into the sea (in the UK!) and lie down just like her. Much more understandable in Florida 😉
Aww great Sadie pics. I don’t think I’ve ever had an orange milkshake from McDonalds!
Love Sadie in the lake!! My pug loves to lay in any body of water- rain puddle, wet spot from the hose, lake. She just plops right down and stretches out all four legs.
Julie, you should just move to Maine! The weather is a lot less brutal 🙂
Excited to see your playlist. I need some revamping myself on my iPod!
Aww, looks like a nice family night!
Everytime you post picture of Sadie it makes me want a dog so bad!!!! She is beyond cute!!
I have a random wedding question for you and other readers. I just got engaged a week and a half ago and we have started the planning process already! I have had my bridesmaids chosen forever, a group of 5 girls, including my sister, who I’m really close with.
My fiance has an older sister, but he’s not close with her at all. Since we’ve been engaged, she hasn’t called him or anything, just texted him once to say congrats. I don’t mean this in a harsh way, they just don’t have that kind of relationship.
We both were on the same page that we would have his sister participate in the ceremony in some way (maybe do a reading or something) but not be a bridesmaid. As I mentioned, my fiance is not really close with her and I’ve only met her 3 times (she also lives across the country). Plus, I don’t think she would care either way.
Well, now his mom has been bugging him that she thinks his sister should be a bridesmaid. and he’s brought it up to me. I feel like it’s putting pressure on me to have her in the bridal party and that I will be the bad guy if I don’t want her in it. It would be a different story if my fiance wanted her, but it’s not him, it’s his mom. And I feel like if he was close to her then I would be too, but I barely know her. She is also over 10 years older than me. Am I being bitchy? Or am I right to feel that I shouldn’t have to include her in the bridal party?
Oh CONGRATULATIONS!! No, it’s your wedding! If you are not close and don’t want her as one, i don’t think its an obligation. You should feel great on your day with your close friends!
This is such an interesting question! Would you mind if I used it as a blog post topics that readers could then weigh in on?
No I don’t mind at all! I really want to know what other people think is appropriate. If I’m not being crazy, then I can be like “see honey, all these people on the internet agree with me!” 😉
awwww FUN! I love grilling 🙂 Yumm..
Bringing my dog to water is always super fun too. I think your blog is fabulous! I’m not a big commenter but I thought I should tell you I read you all the time and I think your healthy lifestyle is inspiring and awesome. Great job! I think it’s great that you are plunging into freelance writing and blogging full time. You’re a great writer!
Ahhh there is nothing like the lake!! My pups loooves it there, they even swim across the lake with me <3
Sounds like such a fun evening out, with the whole family! 🙂 And “hotter that Hades”? Awesome 😛 xyx
An orange milkshake?? First I’ve ever heard of it but sounds good!
I’m not on Facebook, but i would like to share some of my fave songs: Watch Me (Bella Thorne and Zendaya), Tell Me Something (Selena Gomez), Party in the USA (Miley Cyrus), Never Say Never( the Biebs), Naturally (Selena), Baby (the Biebs), and Tik Tok (Ke$ha). Watch Me is my favorite!
Sounds like an ideal summer night.
Such a cute pup 🙂
Aw, Sadie looks so happy in the water! Sounsd like such a fun night! 🙂 Oh, and McDonald’s has orange milkshakes?! I had no idea!
I guess the song is right… Milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard.
Only it’s Orange Milkshakes… and boys AND girls (puppy girls)… and instead of yard, it’s lake.
Other than that, they nailed it.
That tongue looks like someone has been eating sticks!
I laughed out loud at the “Wilson?” caption. what is it about dog captions that are always so funny?
