I can't believe it happened!!!

So this past month was a doozie between getting all the kids to come off of the Christmas sugar high and to getting them back to their regularly scheduled program..was tough enough.. Just when I thought I couldn't handle anything else.....


LETS ADD A TEENAGER into the mix!!!


That's right....you are looking at the proud owner(parent) of a brand new teenage daughter.
 Yup....I can hardly believe it myself!!


So Kylie turned 13 this past Thursday..and I was excited for her!! But on the other hand I felt sad because she leaves for school at 8:00am to catch the bus then she doesn't even get home until 4pm. She's gone all day!! And I didn't even have the car so I could sneak her a birthday lunch. Oh well....maybe next year. But we did have one awesome party that night. And she wanted cheesecake for her birthday cake. (She's a woman after my own heart!) I love cheesecake its so good! I even got Sam to like it!! 

See it turned out pretty good!!


Sam was so excited to finally give her his homemade card.

She got A LOT of makeup!! Cuz what else are you suppose to give a teen-age girl??

Besides a Guardians of the Galaxy shirt..OF COURSE!!


You all know what that means....I had a birthday too!! And I'll let my pictures speak for them selves okay?
I have always wanted to be Wonder Woman...NOW on Halloween I TOTALLY CAN BE!!! I love it!!


No I don't have an obsession with Wonder Woman...ok

fine

maybe a little...( we are a family of SUPERS....dang... secrets out)

This is the best gift I have ever gotten!! In the past I have mentioned how I have wanted to take the girls and get mani-pedis'.  Ken got me one!!!! I totally didn't even see it coming!!! 

I am so excited!!! BEST. PRESENT. EVER.!!!!!

Thanksgiving NIGHTMARE!!!

Image
Sooo I was way to excited for Thanksgiving!! Do you wanna know why?? I wasn't excited for a cheat meal...although I think I cheated more with the pies than the actual meal. The night before Thanksgiving our Elders' Quorum President had "Pie Night" at his house and so you go to his house and you can bring a pie to share OR not...and just pig out on pie. I think my youngest child, Sam had the most pie.. I think he ate 4 slices of pie..most of it pumpkin pie. Leslie had 3 and Kylie, Ken and myself had 1 and a half. I was sooo full I thought that Ken would have to roll me out the door! ;-) Anyways..if you remember from my FB posts I was all excited because this was my first year actually COOKING and hosting!! I didn't mind cooking it however I really didn't want to host it...but our family just like any other family has well....issues...and so long story short...I DIDN'T want my sister to come over...its sad really...but I just can't put up with her and ...

How to tips....

How do you do it?? I just love this saying...it really hits the nail on the head. I am by far an expert...but I just do what works for me and I was tired of being un-happy with me. As of lately, I get asked this question A LOT!!! Must be cuz I'm smokin' HOT!! No...I think its because I train hard and I have gotten really good results! And yeah...it helps to have a really good work out program...something that you love to do. A program that when certain music comes on you can't help but bust out and do some of those moves from that routine.(Those of you who know me...also know I do this frequently and sometimes...ok most of the time I do it just to embarrass Kylie...because its fun!) For me that program is TurboFire. It takes 21 days of you doing something to make it a habit...so after that 1st time of trying this program, I thought, "Uh-oh...I'm hooked!" My "rest days" just kill me...I have a love/hate relationship with those days...its so good f...

Nutritional tips...okay maybe NOT but its just things that I do

Image
 Request after request came in and so yes.....I will write a nutritional guide..if you wanna even call it that. So..............(<<<<those dots were pointed out to me in my last blog by the hubbs..so these dots are for you!) Did you know that no matter how HARD you train...no matter how long you spend with Shawn T, or any other trainer that you love....its only 20%.   yep, ya'll heard me ONLY 20%!!!!!!!!!! I know my jaw hit the floor too when I was told this number! Surely there must be some kind of mistake! Well after hours of banging my head against a wall(okay so I was down on the floor throwing a temper tantrum like a 3 year old, kicking and flailing my arms...) I came to accept that no matter how hard I worked out the reason I was not seeing ANY results during the first part of my fitness journey was because diet is 80%.  I know...it sucks....but it is totally true. Hmmm well how am I going to eat healthy?? Well to be quit honest I just remember i...
