It's a New Year!

Well it's a new year!  I'm really not one for new years resolutions, but at the end of 2011 I did start an endeavor to get fit and to change my eating habits.   So, I went right on down to the good ol' Walmart and purchased a few weights and Jillian Micheal's ripped in 30.  Now let me tell you, Jillian Micheal's is definitely tough!  Especially if you go from jogging about a mile maybe 2 times a week to high intensity circuit/interval training.  It pretty much kicked me in the cedar end.  I new that I had to make BIG changes for this workout to be effective and to be easier.  So one of my co-workers  pointed me to a web site that she uses,  Sparkpeople.com.  She lost 100 lbs. in 2011 and is still losing by committing to working out 30 minutes a day and following a better diet.  Can I just say it works!  I stated Sparkpeople.com the day after Christmas and I got a little crazy about working out and I have lost several lbs.  More importantly, I have lost 2.5" in my hips, have developed muscles in my arms and shoulders, and I am getting A SIX PACK!   It feels great being 'healthier'.  I have become somewhat "addicted" to working out, but I figure that is a better thing to be addicted to than some of the alternatives.  So, if anyone out there in blog land is feeling like a change is needed, let me recommend Sparkpeople.com.  Checkout some of these workouts too!

Where does the time go?!

Well here I am again, finally updating my blog after MONTHS! I have been busy with pinterest, it is very time consuming haha. Thought I would post some projects that I have been working on.


Tie shirt!







Glittering up old shoes!








Pinterest recipes!




Found these at a 2nd hand store. Spray painted them and added some scrapbooking paper to the top for extra color!




Clock re-do! It was easy but time consuming.

We had a wonderful Christmas! Sean and I spoiled eachother. He got a kindle fire and new GPS. I got a Wii and $100 to agua ozul oasis!! Spa time! We spoiled our neices too, because that's what aunts and uncles do.




And then there is this.......it's some huge disgusting spider that I am attempting to get it into a jar because it was so big I didn't want to squish it on the floor. Yuk. Hope everyone had a great Christmas! And have a good new year, I will be celebrating it by working: )

What?! An UPDATE???

I feel the need to update people on my life. I'm am saddened by blog posts that say 3 months ago or longer. Sooo, the last post was exciting, I graduated, etc. But I didn't tell anyone I got a job within 3 weeks of graduating! And believe it or not I didn't even apply! I actually got a call and was offered a job. God is so good! It's a lot of fun, I enjoy my job a lot. More importantly I enjoy my paychecks. We moved into a new little house the weekend after I graduated. It's very cute and comfy, and it should hold us over until we find something we want to buy. I haven't decided on a style to decorate in yet so I just have hodge podge stuff for now. It works though, and its our home!














And my brother in law jeff got married to his beautiful girlfriend, Kendrea. It was a beautiful wedding.
