Spring is here!

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

I made it through my first winter back in the Northeast! Spring is finally here and I’m just loving it. Most of the trees are starting to have little buds on them or they have already flowered before getting their leaves and the air is starting to warm up more and more. I love living with the seasons. It makes you not take any of the other seasons for granted. When a new season arrives I’m so happy to see it and by the end of each season I’m ready to move on to the next. I couldn’t wait for the cold weather to wear my sweaters, see snow and drink hot chocolate but now that spring is here, I can’t wait to go outside without a coat, wear open toed shoes again and spends my weekends outdoors. I wouldn’t change living here for anything right now.
So with all the craziness in my life right now, I’m still trying to keep my fitness a top priority. Sometimes it can be very hard with working full time and planning our wedding and taking care of everything that falls in between but I know its too important for my mind and body to let slip by each day.
Yesterday I took a Power Class for the first time in a while and today I am sore! It felt so good to be back in class again and I know I need to make it my goal to get there at least twice a week again. Shoulders are a body party I really want to work on. My wedding dress is strapless so working on my upper body is so important right now.
Wedding planning time is a very fun time but it can also be so stressful and that’s no exception for me. Between family drama and drama within the actual wedding planning, I need exercise to be an outlet for relieving the added pressure.
Well, its time to get going. I have so much to get done on my cherished Sunday.

CUTE LITTLE ROCKIN WEDDING BAND!

Saturday, April 5th, 2008

Well, here’s the good news… We found our wedding band… here’s a clip of them doing a cover of one of my favorite songs from the 80’s.

How freakin cute! I can’t even stand it! My dog, Turbo, reminds me of the drummer. What a stud!
Well its one week until our engagement party and already some gifts have come to the house. How freakin fun! The only part thats driving me nuts is that the store we registered with LOVES packing with peanuts and it kills me everytime I open box to take out a gift. There are peanuts everywhere!
My finance joined my gym and I couldn’t have been more thrilled the day he did it. I now have a workout buddy! How awesome! We will both lift during lunch time and I’ll continue doing my morning cardio because I can’t get all sweaty in the middle of the day. Then later after work if I want to do another session or take power class, I can go back.
Oh, more good news… we are finally filling our house with furniture! It’s starting to feel like a REAL home instead of a big empty box I’ve been living in. Now if only our LA house would sell….
