I woke up today with a stiff neck. I could not even turn my head around to turn off my alarm clock. I’m not sure if the stiff neck came from my sleeping position last night or from the boxes I was carrying yesterday cleaning up the garage. After I massaged my neck and shoulders […]
Our household loves to eat fish. We have a separate freezer in the garage just to hold frozen fish and lobster. Diving is Chris’s hobby so we constantly have fresh caught fish supply. Besides grilling fish (our favorite way to prepare it), I wanted to try other methods in preparing them. Growing up, I loved […]
It has been a rainy weekend. I’ve stayed in doors for most part, except for trips to the gym in the morning. I love cuddling with this guy. He smells so good, you know, that intoxicating baby smell. I can’t believe a week ago he was in my sister’s tummy ready to enter the world. […]
I was surrounded by the color green today because of St. Patty’s Day. After a night out with friends last night and eating sweets throughout the day, I woke up with no energy and skipped my morning workout. However, I saw these beauties on the dining table and it immediately added joy to my day. […]
Even for someone who enjoys working out, it was still hard to get back into my workout routine after being away from the gym for a week or so while I was sick. I eased into my workout by doing light cardio on alternating days. Once I was feeling well enough to take the intensity […]

I woke up this morning and didn’t really feel like going to the gym. Probably because it was cold outside and the covers where holding me back from getting up. Whenever I have days like these, I do some tricks to get myself motivated to workout. I put the workout clothes in the dryer to […]
The fiance returned this week from his family vacation and fishing trip from La Paz in Mexico. He brought me some neat presents. The bracelet have opal stones on it. It’s the first time I’ve heard about these stones. After the fiance told me it was rare, I went ahead and looked it up […]
Our neighborhood had a block party and we had a fun time getting to know more of our neighbors. It’s hard to interact with our neighbors because we are all out of the house for work and daycare most of the week and on weekends, we do family time together. This was a great way […]
We have arrived at our road trip destination. Viva Las Vegas!! I am the designated driver for this trip so no pictures during the drive, but I did take a snapshot during a quick stop. Pretty much from L.A. to Las Vegas, it is 5 hours of driving with this scenery. Mountains and deserts. Last […]
When I was doing Whole30, I got really good at reading labels and it opened up my eyes. Even my seasonings and dried herb mixes had a ton of ingredients I couldn’t understand or pronounced. I made this taco seasoning back in March and this week I made my second batch. It’s great with […]
I am going to continue doing Project Life this year. I jumped right in mid summer last year and have completed plenty of layouts/pages for 2013. I wasn’t as consistent as I would have liked, but I did complete the big moments and the holidays. I enjoy the process a lot and love the finished […]
Santa came early and Hawke opened his first present ever. At eight months old, he is old enough to grab and rip the wrapper and try to eat it. But he is too young to really know what a present really is, so my sweet little guy took his time grabbing each small piece of […]
Last summer I purchased a few popsicle molds but never got to using them. This summer, I am using them constantly. I’ve tried 3 flavors already and I am excited to try new ones. This weekend, I whipped these berry blast frozen pops and we enjoyed them while lounging pool side. I made these according […]
