  • Monday already?

    My stomach just started growling which reminded me I haven’t posted a weekly menu for this week. I’m trying to re-establish a rhythm on one of the busiest weeks of the year for our family. Our one and only homeschooler is starting dual—enrollment classes tomorrow at the local college where his dad teaches! I’ve wanted…

  • “free” summer movies

    I remember a time when free summer movies at the theatre were actually free instead of $1. But, hey, that’s still pretty good and a really fun way to stay cool. Today, my mom and I went to watch the movie IF for only a couple of dollars. Even though that movie came out last…

  • coming to a close

    This is the time of year where everything comes to a close. I have a real love/hate relationship with it because the older I get the more extroverted it seems I become. My PE program, my Bible Study program, my youth group all come to a close, and I am left at home. There’s nothing…

    I’ve thought about how much I miss blogging every week, but was just too busy living life, you know? But recently several of our regularly scheduled programming came to an end and I’m truly thankful to be back in the blogger’s seat. Some highlights the past few months have been (in no particular order): DJ…

  • i’m 16!

    This past Tuesday, February 11, was my birthday. If you couldn’t already tell by the title I turned 16-years-old. Age is just a number, so I don’t feel that different right off the bat, but I’m excited for this coming year. I have goals to achieve and things to do. One question I’ve been asked…

    A while ago, in December, I said that I was back. I may have underestimated the busyness of the new year and getting settled back in. But this time I am for real! I hope to post around once a week, just to share what’s going on in my life. I’m trying to be more…

  • favorite cheat meals

    I love food. Which is why by far the hardest part of the fitness life for me is the diet. But sometimes it’s okay to eat some unhealthy stuff, right? Everything in moderation *wink* No, but in all seriousness it’s perfectly fine to have a cheat meal sometimes. Here are my favorite foods that don’t…

  • the cardio dilemma

    Cardio is a big part of working out. It’s very good for your heart and is a great way to burn calories. But in my opinion … cardio isn’t fun. I mean some people like it, and if you’re one of those people then maybe you should stop reading … (jk, don’t do that, I…

    Well, we can’t believe our blog is a month old today. It’s been fun, but, unfortunately, it’s time to close this chapter. Thank you to all who have read, commented, or reached out to us to say you were inspired. I’m just kidding! My darling boy and I are just getting started and we can’t…

  • my morning routine … or what I wish it was

    I’m going to be completely honest. I’m not a morning person and neither is my mom. As a result, my morning routine is questionable. I kind of just roll out of my bed whenever and start. But there is a morning routine in my head that I do every once in a while that I…
