Well Timed Meals

3 cute facesMy awesome Mother-In-Law suggested we start feeding our dogs half as much but do it TWICE a day (breakfast and dinner) versus all at once for breakfast. Easier and healthier for them to digest

I am fine with it, but they start pressing me for “dinner” earlier and earlier as time goes on. It started out as an evening dinner… then it went to 4pm, then to 3pm and 2pm.. today before Noon they wanted their “dinner”. By next year will there will a 10-minute window between breakfast and dinner??

I know I shouldn’t give in, but they’re super cute so what am i supposed to do?

There are days when I follow the same pattern — breakfast, lunch and dinner already happened and it’s only afternoon.. maybe I should just go to bed and start over tomorrow…

Jeans

familyWhat’s significant here (other than the fact that my husband & son are my everything) is that I got my son to wear Jeans & a button-up for family pics!!

Do your kids HATE jeans?
But I don’t like them either actually

p.s. this is NOT one of the pics; our photographer will have much clearer photos.., just a far off pic from my phone videoing it all ☺🙌

When do you drink your shake?!

Kale Salad and ShakeOI shared this on my IG and like page and I’m SHOCKED at the # of people who are struggling with what they eat after work and in the evenings and they haven’t tried this yet. It’s worth a try, right?

What’s your biggest nutrition struggle & what are you doing (that’s working) to fight it?

Just getting back from the Leadership retreat, I needed to make sure nutrition was on POINT today 🎯 I do best in the evening when I have a salad & shake for dinner. If you have a small salad followed by superfood shake satisfying your chocolate/sweet craving, you might find your nighttime snacking/cravings are no longer an issue.

This was a kale salad with turkey burger from the grill, tomatoes & avocado with chocolate PB Banana shakeO 👍🍅🍃

Things are not always as they appear

I run and smile like everything is fine, but deep down, inside my shoe, my sock is sliding off.

Run and smile

Game Day

Sons Fb gameWatching your kids .. is there anything more priceless?!

We stayed an extra day, missing Leadership Day 1, to watch our son play his football game tonight but we had to leave early to catch our flight …& what are the chances he catches a pass & runs for a 60yd Touchdown after we pull away?!

We missed it😩 but SO proud & even more proud that when we talked to him on the phone, he was more disappointed in the loss as a team than talking about his TD.

Soak up what makes you happy

Sunny Puppy LoveTrying to spend as much time outside these days as humanly possible! I know the freezing cold is right around the corner 😝. Take time to soak in the things that make you happy💓 & if you truly cannot find that time, follow my sister Chalene Johnson & her Smart Success videos ..there IS a better way to design your life  I was the most STUBBORN of all & thought I had to work a 9-5.. Which was more like an 8-6. I convinced myself it was fine & it WAS fine- but I knew something was missing. So glad I let “fine” go & took a leap of faith for amazing ✨👊

Birthday Cake X3

Mats birthdaySorry for all the Bday posts but this time it’s MATT’s birthday🎉🎈🎂!! My husband (& we’ve been married 21 years!) We met & had crushes when we were 12!

He & my son don’t like being in pics (which I respect), but you must know they are my everything-plain & simple!

Matt is my 24/7 comedian, my business partner, the most amazing Dad to our son, MY inspiration when it comes to fitness & athleticism🏃🚴🏀💪, & he’s of course my best friend!💓💓💓
Soo many important people in my life had a bday this week! Birthday cake 3x in the last 48hrs 😱😂

Little Luxuries

✨🌾 Stretching & quiet time – two of life’s little luxuries!🌾✨

🙈Coffee & cuddles are too but that sounds cheesy!🙈

Stretching and quiet time

 

So funny!

HAHA!! Oh, how i love this!! Who’s the silly one here.. my Dad… or my sister Chalene Johnson!?!? grin emoticon

Maybe it’s only funny to our family or those who know my dad so well (and having to have HIS cereal when he stays at our house.. Now I know, I only really need to have the BOX on hand and pretty much anything inside will do!)
