    Coffee Date Friday

    Hola Amigos! I’m so happy to be joining you guys for coffee date today! I just got back from CrossFit so excuse my no-makeup/messy hair/gym clothes look. ha. Check out what I’m drinking during our chat today: It’s a juicing concoction inspired by a recipe my bloggy crush Emily from Fit and Free Emily posted the other day. (be sure to check her out, she is AMAZING!) I never thought about adding in cinnamon to my juice, but it is actually really good! Anyway, back to coffee date… here we go….   So I mentioned it in the video, but let’s talk about Firmoo.com. They contacted me wanting me to try…

    It is FINALLY Friday. Hallelujah. This has been a long week. Late nights and early mornings. Shopping. Wrapping. Schooling. Working. I’m ready to just be. I’ve been trying to spend more time just being present and having fun. This morning Payt and I had some silly fun on PicMonkey I wish I would have recorded how she was laughing.

    Coffee Date: What I Know Now

    FRIDAY! Can you tell I’m excited it’s Friday?! While this week has been a good one, I’ve been aching for some more “free” time to get stuff done. Did you notice I didn’t post yesterday. Yea. It was “one of those” days. Where you turn your alarm off instead of hitting snooze… wake up at 4:55 and still manage to make it all the way across town for CrossFit before 5:15. yea. It was just a snowball. Eh- Can’t win them all I suppose. I’m so excited for our Coffee Date! What are you drinking this morning? I drank my new favorite Tea, Stash Holiday Chai, on the way to…

    Coffee Date: Mud Runs and Mommy Moments

    Friday!!!! If I planned this out correctly I should be on my way to Florida by the time you read this. I’m super excited, but kinda stressed out about making sure I have everything plus the idea of traveling with my very vocal 2 year old. I get in these weird moods before I travel… I feel the need to clean the entire house really well because I hate coming home to a messy house. I also have to resist the urge to pack everything I own because “what if…” Like there isn’t a Target in Florida. ha. So, Coffee Date time! This week I splurged and got my coffee…

    Coffee Date: WHY?

    Whew, what a week. Seriously, something about this week was so draining. I’m glad it is Friday and I’m totally looking forward to a fun weekend. I’m running my first Stroller 5k, WHOO! It is a small local race (less than 200 entries so far) and I love being able to support local events. Also, I’m sure my running partner is going to be the cutest around. Speaking of the amount of cuteness… Check out her/our featured up on the FitFluential Blog! And my blog is featured on the Top Mommy Blogs site too! Thanks to all who continue voting for me! I’m almost to the first page, so keep it…
