Neal and I are planning a few vacations for this year, YAY, which made me think about our honeymoon. It’s hard to believe that we’re coming up on our one year anniversary! It really seems like just yesterday we were walking down the aisle, saying I Do, dancing the night away, and backpacking around Europe. …
I have spent the past 5 months prepping for this past weekend and it was everything I had hoped it would be! Friday afternoon Neal and I headed to Pittsburgh, PA for my first football game against the Pittsburgh Passion. After the 3.5 hour drive to Pittsburgh we met up with two of my teammates…
When Neal and I found out last weekend that Iowa would be playing UVA in the NIT Tournament, I just knew we’d have to make the drive down to Charlottesville to see the Hawkeyes play. Wednesday afternoon Neal and I both left work early and headed down to UVA. Charlottesville is about 2.5 hours from…
On Friday morning Neal and I headed into Washington, DC, not for work but for a day of sightseeing. A Washington DC Staycation!! Neal and I have both lived in DC for quite some time now but we both agreed that we want to make more of an effort to get downtown, to soak up…
I truly love to travel, always have. There’s just something about taking time off, packing a bag, and living a different life for a couple of days. Over the past two years Neal and I have done our fair share of traveling. Though a number of little trips, minus our European honeymoon, it’s fun to…
Yesterday was the perfect way to close out our vacation here in San Antonio, Texas! My mom, sister, and I started the day off with a sushi lunch at Osaka. I ordered a California roll and the Magic Mountain roll for lunch but was only able to finish about half of it. It was some…
Although I am grateful for the chance to visit my family here in Texas, it is extremely challenging being around habits I have worked so hard to break. Everything I have eaten while here has been my choice, don’t get me wrong, but there have been more opportunities to make poor decisions than good decisions….
Day 2 of vacation was a success!! I start the day out with a 30 minute workout on the Arc Trainer in my new Running Skirts long sleeve Cerise v-neck. I am in love with this top. I love the length, the fact that it has thumb holes, it’s v-neck, and it has roll over…
It has been a while since I shared a honeymoon post, so I thought I’d take you on a photo journey today of our day in Berlin, Germany. After time in Amsterdam and Southwest Germany, Neal and I took the train to Berlin for the 24 hour stay. Berlin was a humbling city, filled with…
Yesterday afternoon, Neal took me on a tour of his hometown of Lynnville, Iowa. Neal literally grew up on a farm in an old school house that his dad renovated. The land around the house was so beautiful and I loved seeing how drastically different it was from DC. As we toured the land, Neal…
I wish I could start off my saying, “I have done so amazing with my diet and my pre-christmas goals while here in Iowa this week” but man has this trip been tough. I think what has made it so tough is not knowing what and when we’re going to eat and then not having…
This was my first year since I was 12 years old that I didn’t go Black Friday shopping at 4AM. It was a little weird and definitely reaffirmed my love for the crazy morning of shopping, drinking coffee, eating breakfast with my friends/family, and then napping my early afternoon away. Yesterday morning, Neal and I…
Yesterday morning, Neal and I woke up bright and early for our flight to Iowa. After much thought, we decided to bring Theodore with us, as it’s probably our only chance to travel with him since he’s still so small. When we arrived at Regan airport, I grabbed some breakfast for Neal and I at…
Thursday afternoon I headed to the airport for my trip to Reebok Headquarters. As I wasn’t going to have dinner until 8:30PM or later, I searched high and low for a Weight Watchers point friendly snack at the airport. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be to be honest. Foods that…
This has been such an amazing and impactful weekend for me. I am beyond thankful to Runner’s World for the events opened to us and for all of the amazing men and women I was able to meet. Thursday night the bloggers headed over to Runner’s World Headquarters for a BBQ with the editors. Oh,…
