Before I start the recap of the race events this past weekend, I just want to say that…I DID IT!! I am proud to say that I am now a two-time half marathon finisher!!! I had a great time running the race. It was even more special because I ran it with friends and […]
I am so excited for tomorrow. It’s race day. I have been looking forward to this weekend since September. This is not just any race weekend, it’s a DISNEY race weekend. It’s double the fun. We are heading to the race expo today at Downtown Disney. We’re picking up all our official race items (i.e. […]

Date Night for me and the fiance. We love cooking our meals at home but once in awhile we make plans to have date night to get out of the house and give the kitchen a rest. For date night on a weeknight, we decided to stay close and go to The Block at Orange. […]
enjoying the warm weather at the beach. We are exploring different toddler friendly beaches in the area eating a ton of peaches. I buy a full tray and we eat them throughout the week. I also made my favorite fruit crisp recipe with cut up fresh peaches and added shredded coconut with the oats […]
What do I consider sweet celebrations? A whole day of spending quality time with my family and enjoying some sweets and some celebrations. This weekend my nephew Jonah is one month old. Look how chubby his face has become. My teeny tiny little chub chub. This is his favorite sleeping position. My younger sister Berna […]
This week, I attended a free seminar at my local health food store. The seminar featured professional triathlete, plant-based nutrition expert, and bestselling author, Brendan Brazier. He shared how to thrive on a whole foods, plant-based diet. I sat right in front of him and noticed the shoes right away. We are matching in red […]
We had a fun time this Easter weekend with the family. Sunday was my sister’s actual birthday so we headed over to her house for some BBQ celebration. My sister is going on a week vacation with my mom, so we kept the food simple and tried to use up every food they had left […]

I woke up bright and early today excited to run at the park. The mornings have cooled down a little so it is actually nice to run outside without the scorching heat that I had to battle during the summer months. 4 Mile run = 3 mile jog and 1 mile alternating (1 min walk/1 […]

I’m happy knowing I’m helping preserve my family’s memories and especially love doing the baby book. I like documenting our every day life […]
