My Day In A Nutshell

  • So tiered, fell asleep in a pile of clean laundry. Seriously.
  • Baby girl is finally pooping normal, HOORAY.
  • My 4yr old is a genius.
  • My dogs need to get a job to pay for all the stuff they destroy.
  • You know you eat too much asparagus when not only your pee reeks, but your farts smell like it too.
  • Got some sweet throwback asics coaching shoes.
  • So many ideas for fundraisers.
  • Kevin fly's in tonight, tomorrow is going to be a long day.
  • So excited to spend the week with him and soak in all the coaching info!

Threw together a tilapia recipe that was amazing-

Lemon Garlic Tilapia:

  1. marinade tilapia fillets in fresh squeezed lemon juice and fresh crushed garlic cloves, to taste
  2. set oven to 350
  3. put fillets in a large pan, preferably a stone
  4. pour marinade over fish
  5. then sprinkle with fresh chopped basil & rosemary
  6. bake for 30-40 min

Oh so good.

Florida Baptist Childrens Home

Yesterday a man from The Florida Baptist Children's Home came and spoke in our class. Its so strange because I have a HUGE soft spot for kids. Not only because I am a mommy, but because I have been surrounded by little ones my entire life. For a while now I have felt this tug on my heart to help somehow. Not sure what my place in all of this yet but I will be asking God for a ton of guidance.

If you have a minute, please check out their website. They are the only state sponsored children's home in the state of Florida. Only because law says the state has to have at least one "religious based" home. How sad? They get kids of all ages in all kinds of horrific situations. They could use help in any fashion, even if its just a temporary home for a baby, or a teen that is on his or her way to finding a permanent home. Will you consider helping a child?

Couldn't help but cry my eyes out while this guy told some of his stories, if i could I would hire nanny's and take 100 of them! So sad....

Tim's 32 Bday



Daddy's birthday was a success. I am beat, and I am for sure fasting tomorrow.

A few things that really touched my heart in Sunday school today, I will blog about them tomorrow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUSBAND!


Its my husbands 32Nd birthday, and he had 2 honey buns, and one swiss cake roll for breakfast! Poor guy is so deprived of junk food.

If I could describe him in 5 words- kind, considerate, empathetic, giving, & SEXY!
This is a pic of us 2 years ago on our way to Buffalo for his 30Th.
I started the day off right today with a 10 mile bike ride, 100 push ups, 100 sit ups, then I did shoulders.
So, Ive officially been crossfitting for 6 months now. I started on march 8Th. here are my PR's so far...
SQUAT- 270
FRONT SQUAT- 210
OHS- 175
CLEAN- 150
CLEAN AND JERK-150
SPLIT JERK- 175
DL- 300
PRESS- 115
PUSH PRESS- 140
PUSH JERK- 160
Overall I am pleased with my dedication, I have many many more high goals for myself.
Something else I am pretty stoked about....something not many people know.....I just finished by bachelors degree in dietetics. It took me forever, due to the fact that I have been raising kids since I was 19! But I am so proud of myself, and I plan on continuing my education in the study of myology, (aka- the mechanics of muscles).
Off to church, then party!

9/11

"But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame. "



1 Peter 3:15&16



Daddy's off for a week, good thing because we have a ton to do this weekend. We have been so blessed by friends in family, people have donated so many things to help us. Refrigerator, office furniture, mats, paint, tires...etc. The list goes on and on THANK YOU GUYS!



Also, I have been made aware today that there are some fellow crossfitters in the community that aren't being as supportive as we had hoped. Its really OK, we are here to make a difference in the community and show our diligence for our people. We wish each and every crossfitter success, no matter who you are! The hatred and ugly words are unnecessary.



Everyone have an amazing weekend & be safe!








Hope this picture makes you smile!
