My body was calling for a good detox this morning so I headed to GPY for a 60 minute hot vinyasa flow! The holiday stress poured out of my body in puddles of sweat. Yuck! But extremely empowering!
I was able to enjoy lunch at home with Cyn! She made one of my favorites! Grilled ham, cheese and tomatoes with Tomato Soup! So yummy!
After work Erin and I went to Panera for Coffee and headed to Massabesic to watch Cyn coach! We had so much fun! Great minds think alike, we both got matching bean boots for Christmas! Nobody else could make a 50 minute drive both ways seem short! We had so much fun! I'm so lucky to have such an amazing best friend! I saw my first shooting star on our way home!
Tuesday morning I headed to the gym. It was so cold I just couldn't bare bundling up for a run! I jumped on the treadmill, which I dispise more than ANYTHING! It felt so good once it was over with! After I jumped into a quick 20 minute circuit for the day! There is nothing better than a little cardio & weights to kick 2013 goodbye!
Cyn made delicious buffalo chicken wraps! Ah! The joys of her being on vacation!
I had one training session with a girl I am so proud to see enjoying exercise, and just looking at her you can see she's coming a happier, stronger person! I am so proud of how far she's come and excited to see her grow even more!
After work I grabbed a coffee with an old high school friend! It had been a year since we had connected! It was so nice!
To celebrate the new year we headed to Pete & Murphs! We had a fun time! Cyn was helping Ethan with the iPad!
We headed into SoPo to see our friends at Erin's! We had lots of laughs, as always!
We headed back to Pete and Murphs then home with Erin! Our first slumber party of the new year! Love these two!
Cyn and I took the last picture of 2013 under our favorite motto hanging above our bed! We took one last year, so why not?!
Wednesday morning we both had the day off! We got up and enjoyed coffee together and Cyn headed to basketball and I bundled up and headed out for a 10.5 mile run! It was super cold, windy and very icy!
I got home and made a yummy shake to refuel! I used: banana, frozen berries, protein powder, almonds, flaxseed and a splash of water! Yum!
I decided there was no better time than the present to sign up for my first marathon! I will be running the Sugarloaf Marathon on May 18th! Cyn and I decided to make a weekend of it and booked our hotel room for Friday & Saturday! I'm so excited!
Thursday morning was a blizzard ALL DAY! I made pancakes for breakfast and we relaxed and did some cleaning! I ventured out for an hour of hot yoga to warm up and my body was grateful after the run yesterday!
I came home to some tough news... Thinking something was wrong with our furnace, after buying 2 parts and 4 hours later we realized it was a frozen pipe. Luckily we got it before it burst! Ahhh the joy of being homeowners! Haha
The boys came over to cheer us up! Murph took this picture and the boys were squeezing a bit too hard! Hahaha so much love for these two!
Friday morning was a continuation of the blizzard! My two cuddle bugs this morning as I got up for my conference call!
We had pancakes and bacon for breakfast in between phone calls and emails!
Bela loves the snow, but not the windy chill! She's a good sport, but you can tell she's not impressed wth me lol!
The past few nights I've had a wicked sore throat. This morning I tried a new tea flavor! It was very yummy and supposed to help with your immune system & digestion! My yogi quote said: "Oneness is achieved by recognizing your self."
I had one training and our workouts are just getting better and better! I feel so lucky to be able to have an impact on her life in such a positive way!
I was able to go to Cyn's games at Windham H.S! I feel so old watching them play! They look like little babies out there! I had a lot of fun! We came home, had some dinner and cuddled on the couch for the evening! Someone was extra cuddly!
Saturday morning I headed to Kittery for a shift at the Lululemon Outlet! I had a great day with the girls and feel very empowered to be the best version of myself everytime I am here! It's an amazing feeling! It was a crisp drive there, and I captured my 2 favorite quotes on the wall for the day!
I got home from work and we were trying to find a fun way to celebrate 5.5 years of being in love! We decided instead of going to a fancy dinner we would hang out at home and dragged our mattress into the living room and watched Downton Abbey! We had the best night together! I am so grateful for the people we have become and grown to be together!
I woke up at 4:30 and Bela was snuggled up fast asleep on the love seat next to me! (Where she isn't allowed!)
At 6:40 I woke up again and she was still living it up on the couch!
Sunday morning we had breakfast at Pam & Pete's with the Wescott's! We had so much time and got some special Jaelynn Love! She is so precious!
After we went snowshoeing at Riverside with Murph and Peter! It was a beautiful day!
Such a fun filled week we had and so looking forward to so much positivity in 2014. I am learning to put what matters most at the top of my priority list and focusing on finding what makes me truly happy! This is the year of making dreams a reality! I couldn't be more excited!
Remember: "Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness."
