Dates & Diets!

Hello my bloggers!!!! Happy Wednesday to ya!!

I went to the local school and picked up Jaxon's registration packet for kindergarten today (tear...sniff sniff). Can't believe my baby is starting school in the fall! time just seems to go by at warp speed when you have kids!!! Here's a cute pic of them pretending they get along lol



Today Dylan and Luke were up before the sun (or roosters for that matter) and headed to Alabama for the day. They had to go check on a job that they have going there. My sweet man brought me back a lil treat from Nashville......


....it's been over a month since I've had one of these amazing treats!!! Yes, Nashville is 2 hours away, yes, all the ice was melted, and yes, it was still AMAZING!!!!

Tonight was awesome...first date night since we moved to no-mans-land!!! Luke and April watched the boys for us and took them to their church (our church doesn't have Wed night services)! It was so nice to have a lil break! We went out to eat (and ate annoyingly healthy-diet=blah) then went to see the hunger games!!!! I've been wanting to see this movie since march 23(the day it came out lol). I've read all the books and was super excited. Though the movie was very well done, I feel like it missed some key things from the book! If you haven't read the book yet...I highly recommend reading it before the movie!!! Anyway...it was a great night! I am thankful to have people to count on to help with the boys!

I did mention the dreaded diet!! I figure if I put it on here...there's lots more accountability, right?!? So Dylan and I worked really hard Aug/Sept/Oct and lost a lot of weight. THEN we decided to pick up our lives and move across the country!!!! Well, I am an emotional/stress eater....so I gained back all my weight...plus 7 lbs!!! Horrible!!! SO now we are back in nazi diet mode...I'm planning on dropping all 25lbs...down 5 so far...20 to go!!!

Let's do this =•\

  2. Good luck on your diet! I know you'll do great. I'm thinking you might like my recipe for iced coffee! Use starbucks coffee, brew a whole pot pretty strong , then mix with 1 small can of sweetened condensed milk. Chill in the fridge and pour over ice to serve. It tastes great! I swear you'll love it. Add chocolate syrup or caramel for a special treat. :)

    2. Yeah, I can understand that. :/ Sorry girlie! Try the iced coffee when you get a chance. It's nice because it makes a whole 1/2 gallon so it makes quite a few servings. Everyone I have shared this with is addicted to it now! lol
