A Mile a Minute

It's been awhile, I know. Life has been pretty crazy. We had a surprise 50th birthday party for my mom last Friday, so the last few weeks have been packed with preparing for that. My best friend came out from Philadelphia for the weekend and the party. I hadn't seen her since April '09, so that was fun. My eating kinda went out the window. And the scale is showing it. So, my big focus now is on getting back to eating well and starting an exercise program this week!

Here are some pictures to catch you up on the last couple weeks of my life:

This was Donnie's brother Cody's 21st birthday on July 31st. This pic is Donnie, his dad and Cody.


Cody and I


This is my parents at my mom's party. They have been married 28 years but never had an "official" first dance, so I picked a song ("You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me" by Gladys Knight) and surprised them!


Tuesday and Wednesday this week were taco night at our house!


The peanut butter I have been using.


I love the ingredients! Or should I say INGREDIENT!


A big batch of Stonyfield Farms Organic yogurt (plain) with vanilla extract, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and chopped walnuts - pretty tasty, but I'm gonna try to get vanilla yogurt next time.


The best part of my breakfast for the last couple of weeks - flaxseed bread with peanut butter and sliced banana...YUM!


If you've never tried Fuze drinks, you should. I love them. They aren't really juice at all, and the ingredients aren't completely great, but it's far from bad for you, unlike many drinks!
