This morning, the fiance and I left town for an overnight weekend getaway to celebrate Valentine’s Day weekend 🙂 This was the view I enjoyed while the fiance drove us to our destination. The coastal beaches were busy. We drove for an hour and half and just arrived here. Beautiful sunshine and warm breeze greeted […]
600 miles and 24 hours later, I am home sweet home. I don’t know when I’ve felt more tired, driving solo for 4 hours or the morning after a long race? 4 hours is the longest time I have ever been driven straight and I did it twice in the last 24 hours. I did the […]
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 […]

Even fantasy destinations have their bad days, even on our honeymoon. Today, the wind and rain has stirred up the white beaches and it is not looking like its pretty self. We are enjoying some downtime, waiting for the bad weather to pass so we can get ourselves some delicious fruit shakes. Yesterday we had […]
Well, hello blog….I’ve missed you. I decided when I first started the blog that it was going to be a she. I’ve missed her. The last few days have been spent just resting. I purposely slept in and went to bed very early. It paid off because I’m so much better now. Unfortunately, Chris caught […]

I am still sore from my workout last Friday. So I headed out this morning to take a walk at the park and see how I feel afterwards. Pre workout fuel: 1/2 banana and 1/2 cup cooked oatmeal with cinnamon. After a mile of fast walking, my body loosened up and I felt good enough […]
adding a touch of Fall season around the house. I bought small orange flowers and cut them down to fit in a blue mason jar. We still have small and large pumpkins all over the house hoping for my toddler’s right hand to heal soon. He likes to jump around and landed on his […]
