Seven years ago today I was a happy bride on my wedding day! 🙂 I love to think back to that day. It was SO much fun! That’s one thing I would wish for every bride. No matter what little details aren’t going “just so” no matter if the photographer ends up being a dud …

Love Language
I have read the book “The 5 Love Languages” at least 2 times. Maybe three. 🙂 I read it before I was married and thought it was amazing! I was teaching at the time and “struggling” with a couple of my students. SO I did a little experiment and tried a different “love language” when …
3 Little Seams
That’s all it took to get me hooked on sewing projects! 🙂 Maybe you remember last Christmas when I told you about my mom and Grandma giving me a sewing machine. I wanted it, I had asked for it, but I didn’t know I would stand in terror of the thing. 😉 Perhaps it’s because …

Food Journaling
So a week or so ago one of the bonus challenges for my fitness challenge was to keep a food journal through the week. I’ve read scores of times about how you should do that to track what you eat, when and how much. I’ve never done it because… well… I’m lazy. Plus I just …
My Thoughts on Sugar
So I’m not a nutritionalist, and if one were to read this they’d probably just laugh at my ignorance. 🙂 That’s okay, I’m not trying to be all knowledgeable, just sharing some conclusions that I’ve come to. Oh and they’re not set in stone of course. Just like most fitness “advice” that we’ve all seen …
Fitness Challenge- Join moi
So my fitness challenge that started in March wrapped up on Mother’s Day. Funny timing, huh? SO after my thoughtful hubby told me to “keep sleeping” when my alarm went off, I took my measurements once I did wake up. 😉 I was somewhat nervous about this “after” proof from the challenge, but boy was …
Fitness Challenge
So today starts our last week of the “official” fitness challenge. Yes, it’s true. It will be 63 days after starting out in March. When we started this it seemed like it would take forever, and now it’s nearly done! I am a week behind in my program because of the week when I was …
Insanity Recap week 2.5
Sooooooo, against my better judgement I weighed myself on Monday of week 2. Guess what… the scale went the WRONG way again!!! I was pretty discouraged, especially considering I was doing all this work, eating lots of veggies, cutting carbs, and the workouts… whew! Boo! I got on the FB group and moaned about it …
Insanity recap week 1
So my beach body challenge started last monday. Which also happened to coincide with Stuart’s spring break. This year we planned to take some time “away” without the kids during spring break. It was a much needed get-a-way, though explaining why mom and dad were going on a “trip” without kids to the lads was …
