Hey friends! I’m so happy it’s the weekend! I’m also happy we don’t have a lot going on this weekend so hopefully I can catch up on life! #storyofmylife Well, we had a wonderful time down in St. George a couple weeks ago. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Utah, we live in the Salt Lake City valley which is a metropolis area surrounded by the beautiful Wasatch Mountains. I love where I live. One of the other things I love about where I live is if we drive about 4 hours south, the terrain is completely different! Continue Reading…
Goals + Healthy Thought Processes
Hey, hey, hey! Happy Friday! I have not been a great blogger lately. Sorry ’bout that. 😉 We are actually on our way to sunny St. George (southern Utah) right now. Woot! This morning we woke up to snow if you can believe it. I’m more than happy to be heading to palm trees, warm weather and the SUN. Yay! Well folks, in my last post I talked about finding my motivation when I’m in a rut. I’ve learned that life is just an ongoing roller coaster, full of ups and downs. The key is to just keep getting back Continue Reading…
Five Ways to Find Motivation and Get Your Mojo Back!
Well hey my friends! I’ve been thinking about motivation, discipline and consistency lately. I know all of these things are key in order to have any success with health and fitness…or really any goal in life. I also gotta say that I’ve been strugglin’ a little this past month!

It becomes a downhill Continue Reading…
My Son’s Cardiac Ablation + Slow Cooker Indian Butter Chicken
Happy Friday friends! I hope you all have some fun things planned this weekend. We had a crazy day yesterday. We spent the entire day at Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City with our 15 year old son. He had a Cardiac Ablation surgery done to hopefully cure his Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Wolff-Parkinson-White is basically an extra small pathway in the heart that causes the heart to have an irregular beat. We found out our son had it when he was just a couple months old, although he’s never had any symptoms. When he was a baby, his pediatrician heard Continue Reading…
A Happy Birthday + My Favorite Supplements!
Well hey friends! We’ve had a lot goin’ on ’round here! First off, I’m another year older now. Sigh. My birthday was on the 9th and now I am FORTY THREE! What in the world? This whole aging thing, watching my kids grow up and seeing how quickly time flies just floors me. It seriously messes with my mind. I don’t really mind getting older. I try to remind myself to enjoy every stage of life. I also think life would get old pretty darn quick if we all just stayed the same age all the time and never progressed. Continue Reading…
Fun Life + Things that are Working for Me Right Now!
Well hello friends! I’ve been a little AWOL. Sorry ’bout that! Life seems to always be nuts. 😉 We’ve had a busy, fun, snowy week!! We’ve had a HUGE snowstorm the past couple days and school was even cancelled for my kids yesterday! Even though we live in Utah and we get tons of snow every winter, it is rare to get an actual SNOW DAY. In fact, I think this is only the second time they’ve cancelled school since we’ve lived in this house (the past 11 years!) We had a fun day, the kids were in heaven and Continue Reading…
