Racing, Shopping, and a Cute kid.
Be sure to check out my guest post over at Frolic Through Life today!! I’m talking about the mental changes I’ve seen since starting CrossFit! I’m also featured on the Fit Approach site today as well, so check it out! Time is flying by! It’s already Thursday afternoon? Geez… It feels like Saturday’s Color Run was just yesterday but it’s almost time for another weekend (YES!) and guess what? I’m doing another 5k this weekend! It is a local 5k put on by the Friends of Wentzville Parks. I’m doing this one with the jogging stroller, watch out! Payton is WAY more excited then me. She keeps asking “Mom, I…

Saturday Funnies {linky party!}
I used to love getting the newspaper on Saturdays. I would flip to the cartoon section and laugh and laugh. And be confused at some of the jokes, but pretend to laugh anyway. I never understood why people read the rest of the newspaper. It seemed so boring… sports scores, national news headlines, local happenings. Now I find myself sucked into national news and searching out local happenings on my own (still don’t care about sports scores… unless its the crossfit games!) It seems as I’ve grown up the world has become a little too serious. So I’m bringing back the Saturday Funnies! I’m starting a weekly post where I…

Coffee Date: Define The Vision
It’s coffee time! I love being able to share this time with you guys. I’m still in awe of all the support and encouragement that we have received this week, it gets me really excited for what is yet to come! Today I’m talking about Defining the vision and why I was scared to label this a “healthy living” blog. (I was trying to find a good angle for the vlog- perfect opportunity for a picture right?) Also, let me know if there is some part of my journey you’d like me to focus on during these vlogs. Or I could just make you a long montage of pictures of…

Coffee Date: Priorities (and other ramblings)
Hey dreamers! Hope you had a great week! I’m so excited for it to be Friday. Obviously because I get to have coffee with you (and also because I love the weekend…) This week I did another vlog for Coffee Date! I hope you enjoy my ramblings about coffee, creamer, crossfit and priorities! What do you think of vlogs? I love them, but I know i’m SO random. If you are a blogger who vlogs do you plan what you are going to talk about or do you just push record and go? I’m more of a record and go kinda girl (obviously, lol) I’m linking up with…

Coffee Date: Consistency (a vlog!)
Hey friends! How are you today? I’m super excited about our coffee date today! I am actually going to be having coffee with you today via vlog! As always, I’m linking up with Alissa from Rags To Stitches. She has the cutest video up today explaining how she does it all with her blog, shop and new business. There are some great tips in that video, so check it out. Without further ado… let’s have coffee! So, let me know… what would you tell me if we had coffee? Is there something you struggle with being consistent in? Source: google.com via Courtney on Pinterest

Coffee Date: Focus
Hard to believe it was just a week ago we were heading to the airport for a spur of the moment trip to Miami. This week has seemed painfully long. I’m in desperate need of a coffee date, want to join me? If we were having coffee I would most certainly go for Iced Coffee. I’m totally loving my Keurig for their Brew Over Ice options. I normally love my Ice Coffee anyway, but I love it even more when its like 105 degrees outside. Seriously, so hot. I would tell you how excited I am to have a few weeks off in between terms of school. I wish I…

Lucky for me, she does too! she had to wear her hat to keep the “sunshine from my head” and she won’t leave home without sunglasses. little diva. ahh this one melts my heart. she thought trying to say “zucchini” was hilarious. Such…

Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff For Moms (vlog and giveaway!)
Hello Dreamers! I know it’s Father’s day… but I have something special for all you moms out there! (Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!) I received a copy of Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff For Moms by Kristine Carlson to review and share with you guys.
