Hey friends! So I am heading over to my friend Rachel's house. I woke up this morning and wanted to get a workout in or just move my body in some way, and sometimes I don't feel like going to the gym. So that's where, you know, having a friend that plays sports and is down to learn new sports is really fun. Basketball is not my primary sport, volleyball is. So basketball's, you know, I played I think in middle school a little bit, nothing serious, but I love the competition of playing a sport and Such a great cardio workout. Um, my friend Rachel and I are gonna go shoot some hoops, and I figured I'd do a vlog of the experience. Come along with me and enjoy some Saturday morning exercise as Rachel probably will kill me on the basketball court. Yeah, I'm excited. Let's do this.
What are we doing today? We're gonna shoot some hoops.
Yeah, right here. Of Naperville. We got our braces on.
Safety first. Always green, always blue, always green, always blue. Let me see hair, but you won't let me see hair. You won't let me see hair. Always green, always blue, always green, always blue. Let me see hair, but you won't let me see hair. You won't, you won't. Eyes open will be open, will be open. She'll be in my arms open, will be open.
Whew, alright guys, so I just got back. From playing basketball with Rachel. I think we were only there for like an hour. It was so hot. I think it's 91 degrees outside today, so we were able to make it for about an hour and then had to call it quits. So got some good exercise, dribbled around, made some shots. Today my body was not having it. It was not connected. Like, I don't know if you play sports, sometimes your just mind and body are not feeling connected with each other, um, and that's okay. Some days are like that. And same goes with working out. Some days you have to be compassionate with yourself and be like, hey, today's not my best day, but I'm out here, I'm getting some exercise, I'm hanging out with a friend, I'm in the sunshine. So yeah, that's been my experience today. I'm hoping to play some volleyball later, so I will let you guys know. We also got this new couch and I'm loving it, you guys. It's super cushy. And baby's home. Oh, hey. Where's baby? Hey. There he is. I'm loving our couch. This is really relaxing to lay on after playing basketball in the sun. So what are we doing next, babe? Volleyball.
Volleyball. How's volleyball been? Fantastic as ever.
I love these masks, they're great. You're wearing them really well right now. That was a fun day of playing very competitive volleyball for recreational, but we had fun. And now we're going to Mitsukana. So now we're going to get ice cream, right? You think?
Oh, the best kind too. This is our treat after volleyball.
We just played a lot of volleyball and are really sweaty and gross, but we had a lot of fun. Chris, what was your favorite part? Spiking the ball. Spiking the ball. He had awesome serve receive, he had a lot of good passes, and I had some pretty good hits. I'm excited about that. I was a terrible caster today, but that's okay. It happens sometimes. I don't know if you guys have ever had like paletas. They're kind of like Mexican-inspired popsicles, but they're like fresh fruit kind of ground up and really actually more fruit than actually like fruit juice per se. So it's really yummy. So now we're gonna go home, relax, right? Wash my face so I don't get any more breakouts like I do right now on my nose and my forehead, because that happens when I play sports and don't wash my face right away. And that's about it.
Do it.
Okay, bye! Great everyone, so I am home relaxing with my baby and we are just gonna hang out for the rest of the evening. It's been an awesome Sunday and thanks for coming along with us and, uh, coming on the volleyball courts. So I'll be doing some more vlogging content like this too. Soon, so be on the lookout for that. I'm currently waiting for a microphone. So I had a nice microphone to plug into my iPhone and then it broke. Womp womp. It was Christopher's suggestion though.
Well, it's a good company.
It is a good company. It's a Rode, uh, MEL plug-in mic and it stopped working. So once I get that in, I'll be doing a lot more vlogging content. But until then, have an awesome day and bye! Like and subscribe! Like and subscribe!
