Treat Yourself

Better than organic
This weekend I had the opportunity to be surrounded by the little people I love. I played with guinea pigs, ate endless amounts of ice cream, and learned that the most delightful toy can be a balloon.
I was able to experience the world through the eyes of a nine and a six year old. A simple, yet magical world where cutting computer paper can make a transformer, fish can fly, and sugar followed by more sugar makes for the best day ever.
It was a joy to see that happiness is free, how dreams thrive on such playful energy, and life is measured in giggles.
If you have the pleasure to experience life from pure and youthful eyes, embrace their magic shows, the way they brighten up a room, and continue to leave a smile on your face.
Cherish all of the people in your life.

Until next time,

Officially eight months in the year…times waits for no one. The color run event that I have been training for is just around the corner.
Quite amazing how a little sweat can help clear your mind. Help you discover what really matters, and provide some ease for life’s transitions.
One of my goals for this race is to enjoy being outside with people who care about giving back to their communities. I have already put in the work, now it’s time to just enjoy the world around me.
Some insight on my preparation:
1. Weight training: 1hr 30 mins. 3-4 days a week
2. Cardio: bike, elliptical, treadmill 30min-45mins 3-4 days a week
3. Stretch after every workout
4. Post-workout protein shake
5. Track 2-3 miles 2-3times a week

Everyday is an opportunity to be better than we were yesterday. May we have more days like these and tender thoughts to guide our dreams.

Until next time,

Respect your faith. Live a life that reflects your personal and moral values.



Treat Yourself

 This weekend I was a solo butterfly on an adventure to appreciate all the things that surround me. I ate yummy food, took the road less traveled, enjoyed the sunshine from my car’s sunroof, embraced the wind, and found reflection to be a peaceful past time.
Which leaves my night to consist of a reading, tea time, and a journal entry that will be about how I want my week to be instead of writing about how it went. Just to see if can write my own future and design my view of happiness.

I hope this week consists of passion, drive, and a commitment to achieve all things worth achieving.

Until next time,

turns out not where, but who you’re with that really matters.
This couldn’t be more true for my day. I was off to church for my weekly time of worship and peace with a granola bar in my belly along with some creamy, homemade coffee. After that, it was off to buy art supplies for my little sister to make our first scrapbook together.
Yep, can you believe it! I’ve been a big sister for a year for the Big Brothers Big Sisters organization. (Read, “I’m a big sister now!” post here) Truly an amazing journey I have had being apart of a younger person’s life.
I may live in a small city, and have the ability to travel to more lavish places, but in the end where would I really be if my relationships are shallow?
 
I’m an avid candidate for independence, but sometimes it’s nice to know in a world filled with so many people and things, that we’re not alone. 
 
“Wherever you are – be all there.” -Jim Elliot

Have a peaceful journey this week my friends.

Until next time,

July rewind

Leave a comment / Uncategorized
I have neglected my sweet blog long enough and wanted to rewind, recap, and remember my recent adventure. (I think I put enough r’s in that sentence).Moving on to Austin, Texas: (June 28th-July 1st)
I really love and adore New Mexico, but my trip to Austin was quite a fairytale. Granted, I was with a great group of gals which added to this sweet, treasure of a city.

This big city swooped this small town lady off her feet!

The lovely accommodations.  
The view from the hotel.
Local pubs, hubs, and everything in between.
I never saw anyone on these scooters, but they made for a nice picture.

 The sign says so…so it must be true.

  
Literature for the trip back…   

                                                          and thank you for getting me home.

Amazing how much you can squeeze in a short amount of time. The travel bunny in me has been ignited. There is so much I haven’t seen or experienced in this world. I can only hope that I will use my time wisely. We don’t live forever and thankful so, because then we really would take everything for granted.

Until next time,
