Honesty

Cal and I are trying to live an extra healthy lifestyle and lose some weight. These past few weeks I haven't been very successful and I keep beating myself up about it and hiding my feelings. So i thought if I was honest about what my goals I would get more success with achieving them. I know that if i have support of the people I love I will be more successful. So here it goes. Cal and I are doing a running program that increases each week to build you up to running 3.5 miles in 10 weeks. We are doing good so far on week one. We have to run this weekend and we won't be at home but I'm excited to continue our motivation and eat healthy and smartly over the weekend. I think with strategies and planning it will make it easier. The weekend is about being with some of my most favorite people in the world not the places we will eat.

So here I will keep our progress and let you know. This week we have to run 4 times a week for 30 minutes. The running consists of intervals of run 2 minutes walk 4. Its been really fun to do together so far. I love that cal is doing it with me and it keeps it fun!! I've cooked weight watchers meals in the evening and that's been good too. Let's see if I have lost any weight at my weight watchers meeting! I'll keep you posted! I feel so vulnerable but I think it will be the extra kick in the pants i need.

Champagne

I'm so in love with champage right now. I keep thinking about what a refreshing and classic drink it is. It reminds me of celebrations and happiness and reaching milestones. I love that Cal is sentimental and kept all the bottles of champagne we had together. The bottle Lisa gave us the night of our engagement. All wonderful memories. This past weekend took champagne to a new level with the French 75 or 77 cocktail- amazing. I want to drink those on September 18.

Busy Bee

Things are so crazy here. Ever since i started the new job i feel like things have been going non-stop!

The new job is great. I'm challenged in many ways- learning a lot- and spending hours at work. I love it. What I love the most is coming home to cal every night of the week. Such a fun experience and it only took 3 YEARS!

Wedding planning is going well. On a total flower kick right now after meeting with my florist and the price wasn't even as bad as I thought! Always a positive. But mostly I'm focused on being a good guest at the upcoming weddings and of course a good MOH to my lovely B2B Lauren. We just went to NOLA this weekend for her last fling before the ring. My oh my what a blast. I can honestly say that girl has wonderful taste in friends!!

Lastly tobi is growing more than ever!! She has flashes of being an obedient wonderful dog but most of the time she is a bit mischievous. But man alive is she a happy puppy!!!

That's where things stand! Hopefully more pics and life updates to come!!!
