8 years!

It is crazy to believe that we have now been married for 8 years!  Where has the time gone!?

It seems like just yesterday this was happening!!

Now, our normal is two kids later, busy, busy busy!!

Whole 30 - Round 1

I don't think that I've shared this very much on Facebook, and if you don't follow my teaching IG account then you may not know that I have been working hard at eating healthy!!

In fact, I've been working so hard, that I decided to try this new healthy eating plan called WHOLE 30!!  I LOVE IT!!

Is it hard to do?!  YES

Is it hard to do with my family?!  YES!!

Is it worth it?!  OH YES!!

I have never felt so good about doing something as I do when I am on this eating habit!  I started whole 30 the day after Easter!!  Yes, I am crazy, but I was doing it with a blogging friend who also lives here in Arizona!

Before shots - don't judge me - two kids later - two c sections - Nat's 2nd birthday

I would STRONGLY and HIGHLY recommend you have someone to do it with you while you are doing it!  It is so easy to think that you can just cheat here, or cheat there.  Let me tell you, you won't want to cheat when you see the results, or let your body get rid of all of that junk!  My body feels amazing when I am on whole 30!!

After - 25 days later - I didn't make it a whole 30 - Cinco De Mayo people - improvements

This is actually my second time now holding on to Whole 30 eating habits, and trying to stick through it!  I love the way I FEEL on Whole 30!  There is nothing better about feeling good while eating healthy. Sure I miss the cheese, the candy, the ice cream and the coke!  But guess what I DON'T miss!!  I don't miss feeling tired when I wake up in the morning!  I don't miss feeling like junk all of the time.  I LOVE that I can stay up until midnight, and wake up at 5 and am ready to go!

Doing this is also forcing me to think more about what my kids are eating, what I'm eating, and what I'm buying!  It's amazing how many things have sugar in them and you wouldn't even know it!!  Let me know if you have any questions!  I'd love to do this alongside you!!

Halloween 2014

For Halloween this past year we were able to go to Trunk or Treat at Cassandra's school again!  The kids had a blast this year!  They were both able to walk around and get some candy!!

Bubba LOVED being Batman!!

Baby girl really liked her Batman!

Bubba enjoyed going to get some candy!

Baby girl wasn't as excited about going up to get candy if they didn't let her grab it out of the bowl!

Cheese!!

Oakland Zoo

During Spring Break Nat and I were in California!!  It was so much fun, and I had a great time spending time with family!

We were also SUPER excited because we were able to spend a day at the zoo with Bree and Nixon!!  I love that it doesn't matter how long it has been since I have seen Bree, we are able to pick up right where we left off!

Our day at the zoo was a TON of fun!!  Nat loved being able to get out of the strolled and explore a little!

We also enjoyed sitting in the stroller to be pushed around, and have our snacks!

Of course we had to take a picture with the cute boy too!!  :)

Updated Office!

Good morning!  I know, it's been FOREVER!!  So much has happened and changed since the last time I was here!  I PROMISE that I will be bringing you lots of updates over the next few weeks so you can see what life has been like in our crazy life!

This is a mid move update!  A lot has changed in there now, and I will share more with you as soon as we are done!!  I can't wait!

The first big update, is our OFFICE!!  I have an office back, so it makes it that much easier to sit at my desk now and get some work done!  Plus, now I can work in here!!  We are still working on updating my desktop computer too so it runs a little faster, but I'll take what I can get for now!!

Sorry you've missed us, but I hope you'll enjoy the updates!!
