Motivational Monday....

Good morning! Happy Monday morning.... 

Whew! My body is sore! My legs and back are on fire today! whoot whoot!

Note to self : never leave The Avengers movie on tv while trying to fall asleep because Kris will stay up and watch the whole movie and keep scaring you and Audrey while yall are snuggled up sleeping and then will go into work late because he didn't sleep  much..... MEN!


Progress is Progress no matter how small! Great quote to get this day started! Today is my First day of Weight Watchers full force! I will lose the weight and work on toning up for Summer. I am in a wedding May 16th, so I hope to be looking and feeling how I want to be feeling at this moment and time! I can do it! I will do it! 

I was looking into getting the next dvd set of Zumba. it comes with a step this time and has extra dvds with it that focus on certain body part workouts! I would love to get it! I hope I stay this focused and motivated! Please help me!   


Have a wonderful day!

Goals

Hello everyone! What a beautiful weekend it was here! Such a tease with having 70 degree weather! I am ready for that everyday! Audrey and I played outside for a long time both yesterday and today!

Can everyone please give me a round of applause because I was a very good girl and I did Zumba Monday night, Tuesday afternoon, I Country Line Danced Wednesday night, Zumba Thursday night, Country Line Danced Friday night and I just did Zumba Toning DVD this afternoon! I am so freakin sore! It's worth it though it's that good sore feeling!

 I also signed up with Weight Watchers I haven't fully started with it yet I am going to be full force come tomorrow. I just was a little over whelmed with the reading and trying to figure out how many points the foods I eat at restaurants are. It was very depressing but I'm over it I read everything and I went grocery shopping so I am ready to tackle this week full force!

Hope you all had a great weekend! 

If you do Weight Watchers I would love any tips or recipes and if you don't but you are doing any fitness goals yourself please share them!

Summer is on it's way and I want to look and feel the best I have ever felt this Summer!

Monday comes so soon!

Hey Hey Hey!....I for sure have had the Monday blues... The day after the Super Bowl should be a Holiday! 

Poor Audrey is so worn out I had to pick her up to get her out of her crate and she's just laying around.....No puppy power in her yet! 

Last night was great! Although I thought the game started at 8 so my guests didn't show up until 7:30 and that was pretty much when the half time show started. Kris heard it started at 7 and I swore when we had gone to dinner the other night they say coverage begins at 6:30 and the game starts at 8. I even heard people complain about how late the game was going to be since it was being played in Arizona.  I felt so bad but really no one was that interested in the game just the food, commercials , and watching how Audrey and Berkeley got along.

Berkeley Is who Kris decided he wanted in our house so when he went searching for a puppy that was his model. Audrey was a bit sassy acting ( her Scrappy Doo came out) but Berkeley put her in her place and could jump up on the couch so she would stare down at Audrey. 

I enjoyed the half time show wasn't as good as Bruno Mars by no means but I did enjoy the dancing and costumes. I heard Lenny Kravitz was on it but I think I blinked. Missy Elliot sang all my old Hip hop dance songs so of course I liked it since it made me go down memory lane for a second.

I'm very proud of myself I did 45 mins of Zumba tonight! Whoot Whoot! 

Now it's time for me to crash! Good night everyone!

Are you ready for some.............Party food?

Good morning! Happy Super Bowl day! I'm so ready to have a few friends over and enjoy our party food! Our friends are going to bring their Pug over so we will be having our own "Puppy Bowl" tonight as well! 

So far Kris has said he wants.... Meatballs.....Rotel cheese dip...and a cheese and crackers plate..... Really? 

We will be getting all of that as well as my picks... Pigs in a blanket and Green Bean fries. I'd like some Buffalo Wings but the crock pot will be full of Meatballs and I'd rather have them. 

I would love to make a homemade doggie treat for Audrey and Berkeley to have because the Pups should get to party as well!

Speaking of Audrey she did awesome at the vet yesterday and remember I said I was thinking either 2.8 or 3 pounds..... well she weighed 4.2 pounds! 

She also went up the steps all by herself yesterday to go inside! After I blinked and saw she was up the steps I think she can stop growing for a couple days now! 

Also I have been very good I haven't bought anything from www.Jane.com in 4 days now! whoot whoot! 

Well time to go to the store and then get some things cooking!

Friday Rattle Time

Hey everyone! Hope you had a fantastic Friday! I'm spending my night cuddled with Audrey which is a perfect way to end this week! Dealt with driving in the Snow and the kids acting as if there was a full moon or something the past few days! Whew! Craziness! 

I have to say I am very proud of myself. I tried a few styles that I am normally nervous about doing but I did and I felt great. I wore new accessories, that normally I would just day dream about and wish I could pull off. I rocked them! Then I also wore my hair a different way and I loved it! I will totally be trying it again! Also, It's been 2 days since I bought something from Jane.com! That website is awesome yet terrible for my fashion loving self!

                                              

Are you all getting ready for Super Bowl? I wish I was spending it with my family like last year but my dad is working so Kris and I invited friends over and most have said they already had plans and a few said they may show up. So what should I fix? I am all about party food its my favorite! Dips,Chips,and Pigs in Blanket my kinda thing! 

I am thinking that the Seahawks will win the game and honestly I don't care who does. Not a fan of either team. I am more excited about the food and commercials! 

Anyway, I need to go get some sleep Audrey has a vet appointment early tomorrow morning to get her next round of shots and get her nails trimmed.

Last appointment she weighed 2.4 pounds..... I'm thinking either 2.8 or 3.0 pounds this time! We shall see!

Good night!

Hello! So I always feel like January is prep month for getting your goals to start! I love my life and everyone in it so it's hard to think of more things I want but, I feel like you always need to challenge yourself to be stronger and not slack off because you will miss things.  So last year I had 14 goals in 2014 this year is 15 goals in 2015.

Go on another Cruise
Drink more water
Try a yoga class
Read at least 4 books this year
Wear my hair curled or waved more
Have friends over more
Teach Audrey a trick
Try a new recipe each month
Keep blog up to date better
Do more with my family
Throw Kris a huge 30th Birthday party
Teach my self the Fake ID country line dance
Do Zumba at least twice a week
Experience something new that's out of the normal for me.
Live each day to the fullest

There you have it... my goals for 2015....we shall see how this works!
