This past weekend I was so lucky to be able to spend the weekend with my family. I love spending time with my sisters as we all love the outdoors. hiking, canoeing, biking, randall campfires.Our kids get to know each other better and spend quality time together.It was also a plus for me as we were active all weekend. Yesterday I started the Ultimate Healthy fix program with beachbody and I am feeling great, and it has helped me find what I want for snack and dinners a lot easier.Loveing life

Lately we have had a lot of rainy days, and I feel like the more rainy days we have the more my mood turns like a grey rain cloud. Tired, sad, trying to find something to brighten my days.I think feeling this way is good sometimes cause then when that sunshine comes through, and someone does something little for you, you appreciate it a lot more.My daughter brighten my day this morning by being a ray of sunshine. All smiles and hugs.I’m in a long distance relationship which is very hard sometimes to, the same feeling, looking forward to those calls to hear his voice. After all these feelings and rainy days, God reminds us we are strong and healthy. We have amazing people put in our lives for a reason, and we live through these days to show us how amazing these people are that God has places in our lives.

After all the rain we had yestersay. The flooding of basements we delt with I really didn’t know what kind of day we would get today.

I couldn’t ask for a better Sunday. I woke up and did a work out #21dayfix. My daughter got to see her cousins. We went to Church, played games with my daughter, saw my parents, did homework and even got some yard work done. what a beautiful day. God has truly blessed our family.

The kiss and hug of your child strengthens you, pushs you to be great.

Soccer went great, but woke up and was stiff and sore. just wanted to stay in bed all day, but the sweet words from my child “morning mama” pushed me to get up make breakfast, get us both ready for the day. smoothie in both our hands and ready to go learn.

I opted for a stretching yoga tonight while the house was quiet, stretch my sore legs and be ready for a bright tomorrow.

now the journey starts to become my fit mama again.

Today I have my first soccer game in 3 years and so nervous since I am not in the shape I was then.

Not only that I also decided to become a Beachbody coach. https://mysite.coach.teambeachbody.com?coachId=1947437&locale=en_US I am 100% doing it for my family, but if I can inspire other families to be active and healthy at the same time then bonus. Do not get me wrong I love the crunchy of Dill Pickle chips, and baking YUMMY chocolate chip cookies with my daughter, movie/pizza nights on a Friday. I will not take those things away, I will just add activity and love to my family.

So going from baby steps to what feels like a leap today, we will see what tomorrow brings.

Don’t we all love surprises on mothers day, what our littles ones will think of, they’re little crafts they have spent so much time on.

This year my daughter, in her class wrote all these facts about me (mom).   Beside the question”things mom does well” was the word cooking written in her 5 year old writing, you can say that surprised me.

I wouldn’t say I’m a bad cook, but it defiantly is not one of my strengths. I always try to find new healthy recipes for us to try and looks good for my daughter to eat, and lets say they do not always turn out the way they look in the picture or taste the way I think it should.

So my journey for this year is to make, what my 5 year old says come true. Practice my cooking, stay healthy, and promote fun, healthy, experimental cooking.

Can’t wait to see what this year will bring.
