90 Day Challenge!

I just recently borrowed these videos from a friend! She absolutely loves them and swears that nothing will get you in better shape. THe other day I finally popped one in, didnt think anything of it, after all, Taebo isnt insanely hard and I thought this was going to be a replica of that!! OH NO, it is the most extreme workout that I have ever done in my life! For any of you who have witnessed this madness can relate! I ended up getting through the ab ripper x (the name is very fitting!) and Plyometrics (leg and booty workout!) and lets just say I couldnt hardly walk for a couple of days! Well Nate and I have decided that we are going to do the 90 day challenge! One video a day plus cardio every other day afterwards! I am actually looking forward to this challenge, its good to break up the cardio! I'll update and let you know how it is going over the next 90 days! Anyone that is interested, feel free to join in!! It'll be fun!

Update on our lives!

Nate and I are doing great! We have definitely been keeping busy this year! Nate is doing wonderful at his new job so far, he has signed on Large Corporations and has really made his mark in his new position! Way to go sweetie, I am so proud of you and all of your hard work! :) He has also been keeping busy with the different softball teams that he is on and is loving every minute of it! As for me, my days are long and the weeks are even longer! Just the way I like it! I have been going to school 45 hours a week at Earls Academy and am expected to graduate in 6 months! woohoo I really cant wait until I can have my life back! When I am not at school I have been working over at Tantrum Hair Salon 3 days a week. and also working for MAC cosmetics in Scottsdale 3 days a week, we just had our newest launch "Cult of Cherry" (I adore this new line! check it out!)I have just had a blast over the past few months, doing what I love everyday.. hair and makeup! I love fashion and everything that goes with it! Thanks to everyone that has been a support to our little family while we are patiently getting me through school! Our family and friends are truly irreplacable!

A new addition!

Congratulations to my sister and brother in law, Sarah and Shawn Birch who just welcomed their third baby to their family, Landon Daniel Birch! We are so excited for you guys! You have such amazing kids, we cant wait to meet the new little Birch!



Baby Makenna!

This past weekend, we threw a baby shower over my house for Connie and her soon to be newborn baby Makenna! It was so fun getting all the girls together! Kellee and Kara were able to make the trip down! Bhuzzies mini reunion! I love these girls they are so special to me, and I am so happy to have them as best friends! Connie has been such a great friend, no matter what life throws at me, I know that she will always be on the sidelines ready and willing to help with anything and everything! Thank you for everything that you have done for Nate and I! You are going to make a wonderful mommy, Makenna is blessed to have such a special women in her life to love and raise her! And not to mention a great dad! (Keithy keith!)woohoo, cant wait until she comes!




I made my very first diaper cake!!


Las Vegas baby!

Over the Labor day weekend, we went to Vegas for a couple of days with our friends, Connie and Keith and we had so much fun! We did ALOT of walking, (i have to give kuddos to connie she is 8 months preggers and never once complained while walking the entire trip! holla at your girl :) lol! ) We enjoyed ourselves and loved that we got to break away from our everyday schedules!





For some reeason, my husband is obsessed with globes! :)

Camping with the Crew!

Another small getaway that were able to have was a fun filled camping trip with the bhuzzie girls and the husbands! I have to admit that we are not avid campers but it was so fun to take a time out and relax with our friends!

I know I know I know...i'm a slacker!

So as you all know I stink at this posting stuff! I make goals to try and post things and never seem to do it religiously! Patience is a virtue people! Just love me!! :) So let me kind of recap on our summer! We have been super super busy with school and work, that we havent really had time to take tooo much of a vacation! However we were able to get away for the 4th of July weekend and play up in Idaho Falls! It was a blast I love it there! That is where I eventually want to retire and hang out with my sweetheart everyday! Life seems like it is in slowmotion up there and things are a bit more relaxed! Small town life!

I have been up to Idaho a number of times since we have been married but this time I was super anxious! It was 4th of July and I have heard nothing but amazing things about the fireworks show that Melaluca puts on every year! Let me tell you that it was definitely legendary! Unbelievable! As many of you know, I grew up in good ole Mesa AZ! And the fireworks and activities for the 4th arent anything super extraordinary so being able to sit and watch a real live parade where the whole town gets together followed by a carnival and all that fun stuff was so entertaining to me! Needless to say! I loved it! Nate and I have decided that we wanted to make this a tradition in our family and to try and go up to Idaho every year for the firework show! We loved hanging out with the family! I guess I just got lucky and ended up with the best inlaws ever! We didnt geta whole bunch of pictures of the trip because silly me forgot the camera but luckily I was able to steal one from my sister inlaws blog! (thanks sarah!) Its not the most flattering pic, but you get the point!

Loving every minute of it!
