Hump Day

Day 2 of Project Booty!! 

SO far so good!  I def. feel the burn!  

Let me say that this soccer season \has really improved my quads!  

I love finding workouts in fun outdoor activities, so whenever I can play soccer, tennis, run a 10K, etc I'm all for it!

I've been doing my butt workouts at the apartment gym.  

Instead of the bench, I use the stepper with 6 blocks on both sides. 

Life is good over here!  Its our last soccer game until the Fall season. 

I'm super excited about fall, cause our games will be saturday mornings! 

It really brings me back to childhood...

I have a lot of extra energy from these vitamins, so I summer cleaned the apartment. 

I'm not big into cleaning.. 

cooking yes, but I love to eat!  

I feel so domesticated.. phew.  

Nick and I have a problem letting the garbage pile up, which leaves the apartment smelling naassttyy.

I found this fabulous smelling air freshener thingy...
I've used this twice and I LOVE IT!  

Seriously Nick just sits over the stove inhaling this stuff. 

I slice up 1 lemon

3-5 sprigs of rosemary

1 TBS vanilla 

fill with water 

let simmer! 

Be careful to monitor the water level...

I've let it simmer a little too long and burn the lemons to the bottom of the pan!  

Opps.. 

Alright Happy Wednesday!  

 

Booty Boot Camp

Hi Ya'll!  

Just getting back from my Mom's first appointment @ MD Anderson! 

I'm excited were finally at this point in her treatment. 
I have an extremely positive attitude.. miraculously..

I believe a lot of her treatment is going to be believing that it will work.

There is no other way!  It has to!  I need someone to help me with my wedding, and babysit all my babies, and bail me out of sticky situations.. so we are both going through this together.  Two bodies are stronger than one right?  

Alright on a SERIOUS note.. ha my butt.. 

I've been trying to grow it fo' eva!  

I think I found a really good program!  

A "butt boot camp"

The best thing about it is... that it is only 7 days long!!!! 
So here is the plan..
