Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. 🙂 On Friday night, Kev and I went to see the movie Ender’s Game with some friends of ours. It was very well done and I absolutely loved Harrison Ford and the kid who played Ender (Asa Butterfield.) However, it was kind of hard to follow at times and I felt a little bit lost throughout the movie. It was still entertaining and worth watching; I just wish I would’ve read the book first. Oh, and if you haven’t noticed, Kev and I really love to see movies on Continue Reading…
Five AMAZING Bargain Beauty Products
Hey guys! I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween. Halloween is such weird holiday. Don’t ya think it’s a little strange to glorify death, dead people and scary things?? It’s also strange to let little kids go door to door at night asking for candy. So weird. Also, Kev and I went to the gas station the other night to get a drink and we saw a fake bloody finger mixed in with the straws. Yes, our society is a little messed up. But, with that being said….I love Halloween SO MUCH! It’s such a fun holiday….in a weird, Continue Reading…
Fun Stuff + Healthier Taco Bell Chicken Quesadillas
I can’t believe it’s Wednesday already. These weeks just seem to fly by! I’m so excited Halloween is tomorrow! Eeee! I LOVE Trick-or-Treating with the kids; I feel like I’m able to relive my childhood through them. 😉 I was sick with the flu last Halloween (along with my 5 year old), so we missed out on Trick-or-Treating and I was SO SAD! I’ve told all the kids that no one is allowed to get sick this year. So far, so good. Speaking of Halloween, treats and kids….did you hear about the lady in North Dakota who is going to Continue Reading…
Great Food and A Wonderful Scout Program!
Hello friends! I hope you are all having a fabulous day. This morning, I really wanted to make Chocolate Protein Pancakes for breakfast, but I was all out of cottage cheese. 🙁 As I was searching in the fridge, I saw a big ol’ container of plain Greek yogurt, so I decided to use that instead. I’m happy to say they turned out great! They were a little flat and weren’t quite as fluffy as the original recipe, but they tasted just the same. I decided to top mine with a little natural peanut butter, bananas and sugar-free syrup. I Continue Reading…
Costco, Panda Express and Easy Halloween Monster Cookies
I hope you are all having a fabulous Saturday! I started the morning off with my crazy muscle class at the gym. It is SUCH a great class. We did 120 pushups today (we always do at least that many), but today it was especially tough. We did 10 pushups and then just held a plank for 30 seconds or so. Then we did 10 more pushups and held the plank again. We did that 6 times, for a total of 60 pushups, and then moved on to something else. We repeated that entire sequence later on in the class Continue Reading…
Clean Food and Three Great Combo Exercise Moves
Woo hoo, it’s Friday!! Well, I’ve been a slacker at getting my sleep this week and I’m SURE feelin’ it. I’ve been getting 6 to 6 1/2 hours most nights and it is just not enough. I really need 7 1/2 to 8 hours consistently or I just fall apart. Why is it so hard for me to get to bed at night??? I really like to sleep, but I guess I just need more hours in my day! Don’t we all? Anyway, I’m going to make it my goal next week to GET MY SLEEP! It’s amazing what it Continue Reading…
