Things I am jazzed about

Can you tell I’ve been busy at night enjoying our glorious weather that seems to be never-ending?  Instead of trying new recipes, taking pictures or talking about my workouts we’ve been celebrating our anniversary, meeting friends downtown for dinner, going on long walks and eating Chipotle.  Ahhh the life.  And the best part, it looksContinue Reading

2 years

When you’re little, you dream about meeting your prince charming.  And how he’ll come riding in on his white horse,  sweeping you off your feet.  You dream about the day you’ll marry him, wearing a beautiful white ball gown, becoming his princess.  And how you’ll live happily ever after.  In a castle.  Meet my prince.Continue Reading

I love Jake Owen

Jake Owen is my favorite artist of all time. And last night I saw him for the 4th time and he was every bit as good as I remembered. If you ever get a chance to see Jake, do it. He will not disappoint. The best part was when he walked from the stage upContinue Reading

Country Music + online workout ideas

I’m currently camping right now.  Probably soaking wet and huddling under a canopy but I’m with great people so I’m sure I’ll come back with great stories.  In the meantime, wanted to pass along a couple of things – workout ideas to try, and country music.  You could easily say these are some of myContinue Reading

Sunday Night Dinner…Texas Style

Have I ever really explained how much I love country?  And not just country music. I’m saying give me 5+ acres, a big red barn, a ton of chickens, a watering hole down the street where I can spend my weekends doing the two-step in my cowboy boots, enough of a garden to serve farmContinue Reading

Friends in low places

Happy Sunday.  Although can you really call the last day of your weekend and the day before you have to go back to work happy?  I’ve been a complete bum today and really need to do something productive…  A trip to the grocery story and a long walk with the Chance dog are definitely inContinue Reading

Tastes (and smells) of the tropics

I wish you could be at my house smelling my kitchen right now. (Is that creepy?) It smells AMAZING. And it’s all because of this stuff: I was at TJ’s a couple of weeks ago with my friend Chelsea and we’d both heard about coconut oil but had never used it so we picked someContinue Reading

We bought a spin bike!

We bought it over the weekend and I rode it for the 1st time today.  Um, can I tell you how much I love just rolling out of my bed and stumbling into the guest room to get my cardio in?  It’s fantastic.  I rode for 45 minutes and did some steady riding with moderateContinue Reading

Whatever Makes You Feel Like A Rockstar

Yesterday was kind of rough as far as work-outs go.  Monday night Chris’ parents came in to town and had dinner with us and then we took them to the airport (side note, they’re off to hang for a month in Mexico.  No fair).  We got home late(r) but decided to stay up and watchContinue Reading

Better in a mason jar

Did you know I almost named this blog “Jars of Mason?”  Yup, even had the URL and everything.  See, I love mason jars.  I know they’re pretty trendy right now but I’ve loved them forever.  Seriously.  I’m not just saying that so it looks like I’m not jumping on the vintage train bandwagon.  I ateContinue Reading
