The Road To Skinny

Just an update...I went in to weigh in this morning, and lost another 1.8 pounds. Doesn't sound like much, but I've lost a total of 7 lbs in 3 weeks so I'm feeling pretty good! Plus I'm back into my normal jeans and officially out of my FAT jeans :) Still got a ways to go, but not a bad start! Plus...ONE WEEK FROM TOMORROW I LEAVE FOR MY CRUISE! See the urgency on my road to skinny? Love everyone!!

Goodbye summer!

So this morning after Bradley left for work, he sent me a text saying he saw snow on the side of the road...so I'd like to officially say...GOODBYE SUMMER! But, we had a great end to the summer! Mack had his first birthday...so we threw a great party! We had his grandparents there, all his aunts and uncles, and a few of our awesome friends! Among the great gifts he got...a basketball hoop, a wagon, a few baseball bats, and many many more awesome toys! Thanks to everyone for loving our son (almost) as much as we do! Now its time to buckle down for school...piano lessons start this week, and I have lots to do...once again! NEVER A REST!

These boys are so funny!! They are loving the wagon Mack got!

His awesome baseball cake...funfetti on the inside of course!

Sitting on top of his basketball hoop right after he opened it! Our cute family!

He's shooting hoops...he thinks he's so awesome when he dunks the basketball! Of course it doesn't help his ego when we make a big deal about it every single time he does it :) He even claps at himself!

P.S. I got really sick on friday...when I had to pay $450 on books for 3 FREAKING CLASSES!!!

GREAT NEWS!

So I had my first weigh in this morning...after one week on my new awesome diet I have officially lost 5 pounds! But the other greatest benefit that I have felt is a TON of energy...even my mom noticed! I've been going nonstop for the last week and I feel great! Woohoo!

Catching up!

Ok so the last few weeks have been quite busy! So I just wanted to catch up on a few things happening! So here are a few pictures from Erica's Wedding...

Me, Megs and Katie at the reception

Also, Mack had his very first birthday! He is now 1! It's crazy...I don't feel old enough to have a one year old. We haven't done anything for that yet...his party is on Wednesday. So I'll post more pictures about it then! School starts in two days...bummer. This is going to be a hard semester! Also, I started a new diet which I'm very excited about...my mother in law and father in law both lost 40 pounds on this diet! So I'm sure I will keep you all up to date on how much i lose every time I go and weigh in (which is weekly). They said this first week I can lose anywhere from 2-8 pounds! I'm shooting for the 8...I've got a cruise in 4 weeks...what do you expect! OH and yesterday, a little girl at church gave mack a big hug, then turned and bit him really hard on the cheek. This picture doesn't really show how bad it was..but it was bright purple all day!

Orem Owlz game

Just show you Mack at the Orem Owlz baseball game from the other day. He really enjoyed himself!

We had front row seats and he definitely took advantage of them!

I'm Slacking...

So I've got a couple of things that I'm going to blog about eventually, but I dont have much time right now. Mack was just being funny...

He wanted to mow the lawn with grandpa...so he followed him around with his lawn mower :)

A new member of the family...

So by now most of you have heard the news...

Welcome to...
THE VESPA!

It's Brad's new baby...with 80 miles to the gallon it is our new favorite addition to the family :) Just kidding Mack...you still hold the #1 spot!
