I got a speeding ticket today….Wahhhhhhhhh!!!!

Tomorrow I officially start NutriSystem. I finally got the big ole box of food in the mail today. It was HUGE! I am excited about it and although some of the food choices look sketchy I’ll just have to deal with it. Terence took me out to eat tonight for some mexican food as my “last meal” and then we went by the store and bought some fruit as snacks. I also saw Bride Wars today with two of my friends and it was such a cute movie. I hope they do a sequel.
Tomorrow I’ll be working at the Stock Show again with the buffalo and we are supposed to have all the school buses come tomorrow with kids…I’m sure it’s going to be a busy day! Well, I am off to go watch 24 with the hubby! Take care everyone 🙂

This was the second year I volunteered to work at the FW stock show for the bank. It is always a lot of fun and it was great weather today.

This is me with our mascot “MO”
(excuse the windblown hair…it was very windy today!)

rides…and lots of funnel cakes….No, sadly I didn’t have one!

cute baby goats- it was so funny because some of the goats just passed out for no apparent reason. They would just fall over all the sudden, apparently it happens a lot!

more MO

These were the cutest little white chicks…I have no idea what they were but they were fluffy and cute and cuddly and I heart them!

On a side note-I really need to invest in some cowboy boots in order to fit in around here 🙂

First of all have y’all tried these Naked drinks? They are so good and Terence and I buy them a lot and they have a pound of fruit in every bottle.

Every year at work we have a new “theme” and get a new bracelet to wear for the year. Here are the ladies and me modeling our new blue bracelets….I don’t remember the exact theme…strength/stability something like that 🙂

Here is Julie/AKA my new gym partner & Kelly.

And this is the mother load of candy I have to say “NO” to every day while at work because I can’t have it 🙁

And as long as we are talking about work I’ll show you the disgrace that is my desk drawer and you can see my unhealthy addition to all things post-it and every kind of pen imaginable! ha..ha..!!! It needs to be cleaned 😛

Tomorrow I am working at the stock show/rodeo again this year taking pictures with the buffalo…I had a lot of fun doing it last year and the kids that come are always so cute dressed in their western wear! Other than that no big plans this weekend because Terence has classes and I’ll be at home watching movies and painting my nails….ahhh the life!

Woke up this morning and went to work as usual, only instead of coming home and sitting on my butt I took my gym bag to work and went to exercise with a co-worker Julie. I did 2 miles on the elliptical and another 2 miles on the bike, worked on abs and arms a little bit too. I am SO out of shape, but also thankful that I actually made myself do it! Yeah! Tomorrow we are planning to go back…and the next day…and the next….

My Nutrisystem was shipped today, so once I get that in I will be in full fledge fitness mode 🙂 I’m so ready to feel good again!

Last night Terence and I got to babysit our little nephew. He was so good last night and didn’t fuss at all! He drank his bottle then took a nap and woke up and watched some 24 with us. He is so snuggly! We also had a pizza night…..but those days are long gone because today……dun…dun…dun…dun….

I JOINED NUTRISYSTEM!!!!

I know what you are thinking….”But you can’t have Starbucks on NutriSystem right?”
Nope, but with Terence’s graduation four months away I want to be in tip top shape to have a baby. We decided after Terence started grad school to put our baby plans on hold for awhile until he graduated and we got settled. Well, now is the perfect time for me to lose some weight and get healthy because I want to be in good shape when I get pregnant, not to mention it may even help me “get” pregnant because studies show just a 5% drop in weight greatly increases your chance of concieving and right now I am overweight. I’m sure I will update on here as I progress through the diet. I am actually excited about it and looking forward to a change and feeling better about myself. Yeah!


Bye Bye pizza nights….

One of my dear friends named Summer who I met through blogging has been trying to have a baby for some time. She found out she was pregnant not too long ago, but it was a tubal pregnancy and it would’nt be viable. Yesterday her tube burst and she was rushed into surgery…I know she has prayed so hard for a baby like so many of you and I just ask that you would say a little prayer for her and her husband today that God will give them peace and understanding during this difficult time. Bon and I love you and we are so grateful to have found you as a friend! We are praying for you and know God has great things in store for you!
Love, Becky
