Hello Darlings!
Just about a month ago I posted my Summer To-Do List. I
thought it might be fun to give a little update about what I’ve been up to this
past month, as I have actually completed quite a few of the items on my list- summer in Denver has been pretty fabulous so far!
1. Explore around Denver with Tinkerbelle! This is in progress!
More hikes to come!
2. Participate in a fun run 5k! I am signed up for The Color Run in Denver on August third! SO INCREDIBLY EXCITED! I was super lucky this
year and was given free entries to The Color Run™, also known as the Happiest
5k on the Planet, a unique paint race that celebrates healthiness, happiness,
individuality, and giving back to the community!
As my first 5k I’m really pleased that this a fun run rather
than a ‘get your best time’ race, and would love it if any of my darling
readers joined me! Whether you’re in Denver (if so I’d love to meet up at the
race!) or near any of the other race locations make sure you use the code COLOR5OFF that works to take $5 off the
race in ANY CITY that isn’t sold
out!
And if you register with a team of 4 or more you get $5 off
your registration automatically and can add this code on top of that for a
total of $10 each registration! Such an amazing bargain- make sure you sign up soon so your city doesn't sell out!
3. Go craft beer tasting. I met up with Heather from
Better With Veggies and her darling husband, Kirk, at Lone Tree Brewery and
tasted a few fun beers. This will definitely be happening more often this
summer!
4. Throw a fun party for my birthday! I decided that
everyone was going rollerskating. This was so much fun, however, I was pretty
terrible (four wheeled skates are so different than ones with a blade!) and
ended up spraining my elbow! Whoops!
5. Attend an event at Red Rocks. This is in the works- sunrise
yoga or Fitness on the Rocks? Yes, please!
6. Go to Jazz in the Park. This was such a fun event! I
packed my picnic basket with a bottle of wine and Italian tapas and we sat
chatting and listening to smooth jazz. So relaxing and so much fun!
7. Go to a Rockies game. Check! I went to a Rockies-Cubs
game with a friend who was visiting. A super cute old couple actually traded us
tickets so we ended up a few rows back on the third baseline instead of in the
boonies. So fun!
8. Vegas with the girls! Plane flight and hotel booked- can’t
wait until August!
9. Go on a Denver food tasting tour. Does watching Diners,
Drive-ins, and Dives count as research? I’m in the process of mapping out a
tour!
10. Sunrise yoga in the Botanical Gardens. I drive past the
gardens all of the time, I just need to get my act together and head out one
morning!
Have you completed any of the items on your summer to-do list? Let me know in the comments below!
Make sure to let me know if you are doing The Color Run! I’m so excited to see everyone’s pictures and would love to meet up if you are running in Denver!
