I'm a 35 year old wife and mother of two. Music lover, avid book reader and chocolate fiend. I have a new found love of things that will help me live longer, like exercise and healthy foods. This is my record of my ongoing transformation from excuse-making slug to butt-kicking bad ass.

Austin Color Run is tomorrow! The weather has been unseasonably cool, so I’m a little worried about being cold at start time, but it should be a beautiful day. I’m very excited to get out there and have fun with my friends and my sister!

I’ve officially had to move my wedding ring from my ring finger to my middle finger, for fear of it flying off. I guess I’m still shrinking!

Want to work out with a buddy? Try some of these exercises:

  1. Handclap plank - both starting off on the ground, raise yourselves up with one arm and slap hands, alternating each time.
  2. V-sit side touch & pass - never declining and holding the v sit, twist and touch both sides and then pass the mediball off to your partner. Both must always twist and touch.
  3. Mediball crunch - get your partner to stand over you and lock your feet into their legs. Crunch up, pass the mediball to them and come back down, then crunch up and grab the mediball again, repeat. 
  4. Crunch & stand - Crunch and using your core stand up, throw two punches when you reach the top, then lower yourself back down. Make sure your partner gives you a slight pull on your legs when you’re coming up!

Have fun with these!

Well, I’ve been on and off (mostly off) tumblr these last few weeks, and when I am on, it’s just a quick scroll through my dash. My husband was laid off and has been home and COMPLETELY HOGGING the computer while looking for another job or some shit like that. ;) We are trying not to get too…
