Well I just haven't been updating like I usually do. This is a nutty crazy month for me. Everything is extra busy, lots of weddings and photo sessions, kids going back to school, trying to keep the house tidy and the laundry done and all of that, getting back into working out and trying to make my self a healthier person and keeping an eye on Emily aka danger girl.
I've decided I have to start focusing on making time to work out, I just know how important it is to have good habits and although I don't want to loose weight I do want to tone up. I know as I get older it will be harder to get into shape unless I start now so I'm trying to be a good girl. Last week I started walking a mile in the morning and riding 2.5 miles after lunch. It's not a strenuous work out like I'm used to but I push myself and get my heart rate up and it's a nice start. It's good bonding time for me and Emily and we both get fresh air which isn't going to last much longer with winter around the corner. I'm hoping to keep up this routine until the weather gets too cold and then I'll switch to working out indoors again.
We were busy this weekend again, I had a huge wedding on Saturday in South Haven which was nice because my parents didn't have to head up this way to babysit for once. The kids got to spend time with Nana and Papa and I got to experience my first huge wedding party, the bride had ten people standing up on her side alone. Nuts! I arrived in South Haven earlier then needed so my mom and I could run to Crane's and pick some apples. The only good thing about cooler weather is apple picking. Apples are probably my favorite fruit. My favorite fresh fruit, so good right off the tree I could die. I'm mad because once again I have to miss picking my favorite kind of apple, honey crisp. They aren't ready until next Saturday and I have a wedding out of town that I'll be at so I won't make it up to pick them. I'd say I'd go on Sunday but they are in such high demand they run out in just one day. I love those apples!! So fricky frick frack.
Sunday I was suppose to have a photography appointment in the morning but we got rained out We took the time to enjoy a more relaxing day. I even took a nap in the afternoon and my wonderfully awesome husband cleaned up the house while I was sleeping AND kept his eye on little trouble bunny. How nice was that?!?! Nothing is better then taking a nap then walking out into the living room and everything is clean and sparkles, he even cleaned the bathroom!!! Nathan had a buddy over, a new friend he met at school. I am so happy for him he needed a bud now that Kaylee has a friend from across the street. They played together most of the afternoon. We had some chinese for dinner, yum and then went on a bike ride with our friends from across the street. We rode to a park and let the kids play, even Emily got to get down and run around a bit. Then we headed home and Jimmy pulled out the old DDR and we let them try it out. It was nice to relax and even nicer to get out in the air. It rained a good chunk of last week and I was inside for a wedding all day Saturday so I didn't get out much. I really needed that. Well I'm going to get some work done here. I'll be posting a few more pictures of our morning walk on Emily's blog and will try to get to posting a photography blog later if I have the time. XOXO
