Honestly, I am a big fan of Groupon. The deals may not be appealing every day, but every once and a while you come across one of your favorite restaurants or activities and it is wonderful. Or, in the case of a few weeks ago, you are able to try out a new restaurant that […]
Dinner
Invitations, Favors + Papa Bender Dinners
What could possibly incorporate all three of those things? Why, a trip to Arizona, of course! Sorry to leave you all hanging for a week, but I ended up turning off the computer for a long weekend in favor of this: You all know how much I love home. I caught the Arizona fever again. […]
Perspective
Hello and happy last hour of Monday 🙂 All of your comments on my Insanity video and recap made me smile. Glad you liked it! I’m currently on week two of month two and definitely have noticed an increase in my appetite as a result of these longer, more vigorous workouts. I thought I would […]

Thanks also for the GREAT wedding song suggestions, too! Once I get a playlist together, I will post […]

New Kitchen Toy
At my wedding shower last weekend, Bobby’s family discovered that I’m both a foodie and obsessed with kitchen gadgets. Some of them found out after I talked about my blog – if you’re reading, hello! – and others realized my obsession after they saw how giddy I became over our new kitchen toys! This past […]
Weekend, Wedding + Workout {Video}

It’s…sweat-tastic 🙂 What a whirlwind weekend! Tonight (Tuesday) is honestly the first chance I’ve had to sit down and write. I’m […]
