MIA

Well I finally had a minute to sit down and actually write or (type). I have been SUPER busy and it's only just beginning. We are re-doing our backyard so that has taken a big portion of my time. I also have been trying to work at the school as much as possible before school gets out cause I can't work during the summer. I also have been diving back into the Real Estate business and paperwork is just constant right now. Luckily I can do it from home so that helps with Nova. I can't wait to post pics of the backyard when it is all finished! Novas birthday party is on the 5th and we are trying to have it done by then. Also, I have been trying to talk the hubs into a new phone and last night when my screen shattered I thought this was just one more great excuse to get one! haha Hope you all have a great Friday! Here is a little photo or two of the little one!

Passed out in the booth at the restaurant:)

Trying New Things

Since I have clearly hit a dead plateau, a friend told me about this new video she is trying and says it is absolutely AMAZE BALLS!!! Yep I said it and I went out and bought it and will be trying it out tomorrow. This is it:

 I have never been a huge fan of yoga. But I have found myself stressed lately and feel like sometimes I get angry over the dumbest things. I don't want that to ever come out in my personality so I am going to give this a whirl and see what happens. I will try to get a progress notebook and keep you updated. (If you care:))
 On another note, I have been into spring and the amazing weather we have been having here so I decided to make a spring wreath. I haven't gotten a pic of mine yet but ended up making one for my sis-in-law and here is how it turned out:

I did these colors cause well.. those are the colors she is doing in her new chateau :) I also tried this new thing on my toes and thought it turned out pretty good. I am still practicing but here it is:

Again, excuse my disgusting runners toes. I have to do fancy stuff like this to hide the nastyness. Hope you ahve a great weekend! :)

Costa Rica

Well I finally got the pictures from our awesome trip to Costa Rica! I am so excited to share. I won't babble on about every detail but I will say this: It is a BEAUTIFUL country with sooo much to see. Every place we went to hard its own beauty and the activities we did were unforgettable! I don't have all the pictures from the volcano but will try to get them soon:)

Maintenance and more

Good Morning to all!
 The hubs had an awesome Valentines. We celebrated with the little one and just enjoyed our family together. I have been one busy momma and feel a little overwhelmed at times which is why I have to post a couple things and some interesting finds. First, I have been working my tail off to keep my weight stable. Eating healthier foods and excising like a maniac. I pretty much run every day and have really been focusing on weights. I have been maintaining my weight under 160, THANK GOD! But am still not where I want to be. So I am still trying to do different things and stay focused.The hubs went back to school so I have been helping him research and with his homework. Our washer broke and we were able to find the part for it online. It came in yesterday and I decided to try and fix it myself and to my surprise, I DID it! Washer is running great! We also have a trip that we have been planning for a while that is coming up, here is where we will be going:

Yes it's somewhere tropical and on my hubby's bucket list. Jaco, Costa Rica!! We are so excited:)

Lastly, I have to inform all of you of my favorite champagne. It is slightly sweet and has AMAZING flavor. Here it is :

It is Sparkletini Raspberry Champagne and is awesome! Yes this dampers on losing weight but I just refuse to pass this up when it comes my way:) Hope you all have a great weekend!
