Over the weekend I spent some time decorating the house for fall and Halloween, baking pumpkin goodies, and prepping for… Continue reading All About Fall: Pumpkin Oat Muffins & a Fall Fitness Challenge

I spent this past weekend doing some last minute… Continue reading Lazy Weekend: Coffee, Walks, & Waffles!
Weekend Recap: Farmer’s Market, Meal Prep, and Organizing Part 2!
I had off work this past Friday. My only plans were to mow the lawn, maybe do some cleaning, and relax. It started pouring about 9am, right as I had just finished mowing the front yard. I gave in to not mowing the back in the rain and came inside. I quickly showered and… Continue reading Weekend Recap: Farmer’s Market, Meal Prep, and Organizing Part 2!

Gluten Free Adventures: New Mexico Part 2!
I'm finally settling back in the the swing of things... The drive back from Ruidoso, New Mexico took 9 full hours, and with a panting dog in the back seat, I was ready to be home!

I’m Alive!
I survived the longest, tiring, and most challenging week of work I have all year. I worked straight through for 12 days and for many days in a row I worked 18+ hours. Definitely a rough way to start out the year after vacation! It also made sticking to all of my new goals impossible.… Continue reading I’m Alive!
