Soaring above the clouds!

On the day we left for Boca Raton the weather in Dallas was rainy and cold!   Once the plane soared above the clouds, we began to get a glimpse of what was to come while visiting Florida. We took A LOT of images and now that we are home I will go through them all and will have to make some hard decisions on which ones to post, so stay tuned.  DH and I had the time of our lives!

Upcoming Getaway!

My husband and I leave in a few days and I'm so excited!  Stay tuned for an update on our stay coming soon!

Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred!!!

I mentioned a few months back that I was beginning my journey to downsizing (my dress size) by way of working out to Jillian Michael's 30 day Shred.  I started this program in January of this year and now I'd like to share with you updates on my progress. 

If you are anything like me and don't like to work out for long periods of time, yet want results, this DVD is for you!  I saw results within a few days. If I hadn't taken any before and after pictures I would not have believed it to be possible.  Here I am day one before beginning the 30DS.  As you can see pictures don't lie!  Although I am not overweight, I am bigger than I was 10 years ago and I had bulge in places I did not like. My goal was to "shred" the extra weight I've accumulated over the years, become stronger, leaner and more fit!  All I can say is thank goodness for Jillian and her DVD!

M.I.A.

To say it's been a while since my last post would be an understatement. I'm not going to offer any excuses for being M.I.A., but I do want to apologize to you for the down time.  There have been several events that have occurred over these past two months that have changed the dynamics for both me and my family and it has taken us some time to adjust to and welcome the changes with God's help and guidance.  Just recently my husband and I were victims of a hit and run accident.  Although we were not physically injured (major damage was done to our vehicle) we have since reprioritized our day to day living.  We have since begun to put more focus and attention as to what God's purpose is for our lives and that of our children. We have learned a lot both as a couple and individually and we each have grown from this experience.
