Happy Birthday To Me :)

Hi everyone :)

Today was a very fun day. It's my birthday :D

The day itself started out great! When my husband got home from work we went and played some street hockey. I didn't wake up until he called me on his way home, so breakfast was only an IdealFit Chocolate Peanut Butter protein bar.

We played hockey for an hour today and it was hot! I did have my IdealFit Peach Lemonade BCAAs with me, so my body really appreciated that. As much as I love to write, fitness is also a huge part of me.

After we got home, I went down to my parents' house. My mom made my favorite meal (pork roast with buttered noodles). On top of that, my sister got me a cake from my favorite bakery, Keystone Bakery.

Needless to say, I had to have some birthday cake (which came home with me, too). After dinner, my mom and I went and coached gymnastics.

When I did make it back home, my hubby was already up and about. I ended up eating again with him, and of course that meant more birthday cake. We kicked back and watched some TV until he had to leave for work.

Before he left, he gave me my birthday presents and I swear I turned into a little kid when I opened The Lion King Monopoly! They combined my two favorite things: The Lion King and Monopoly lol. I can't wait to play! Pride Rock even sings Circle of Life when you hit the button!

Overall, today was very fun. I really did have the best birthday any girl could ask for!

Also, my shirt was made my Roxy's Enchanted Creations (see link below). She makes amazing things and can seriously do anything and everything! If you want or need something made, she's the one to do it! :)

46 Miles For A Cause! Help Kids Beat Cancer!

Hi Everyone :) I have decided that I am going to walk a total of 46 miles before September 13. For those of you who may not know, I hold a special place in my heart for THON. THON is a charity that I am completely passionate about. I have seen first hand just what the money raised for THON and the Four Diamonds Fund does. THON is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world! Penn State students come together every February for a 46 hour no sitting, no sleeping dance marathon held at the Bryce Jordan Center. As a Penn State alum, I can honestly say that this is without a doubt the best thing I could have ever participated in. I am still very active in THON today and am always bringing awareness about the cause. We dance so no parent ever has to hear the words "your child has cancer" ever again. Since 1973, THON has raised over $100M For The Kids (FTK)! I have seen first hand the impact this has on families. I have met our THON families. They are the ...

8 Years and Counting!

8 years ago, today, I had my first date with my now-husband. We went to TCBY for frozen yogurt and then back to his parents' house for a movie night. It was then I agreed to be his girlfriend. Rewind a few years ago, when I was in the student lounge at Penn State Fayette, I saw him for the first time. He had on a black and white Tapout shirt, aviator sunglasses, and a mohawk. Yeah, I had a major crush on him. I never talked to him, though. I'm normally not a shy person, but when it came to him I couldn't bring myself to even say hi. The following semester we had English 202c together. It was the worst class we had ever taken and we kind of started bonding a little over that. From talking, I found out he works out at the campus gym every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday after class. Coming from a fitness background myself, I told him I could get him abs in 2 weeks. I couldn't, but it was a way for us to spend time together. I ended up going to the gym with ...

Never Stop Chasing Your Dreams

I do want to go ahead and talk to you guys about how important it is to follow your dreams no matter what it takes. This is really what the focus of today's post is all about. And truthfully, following your dreams can be very frustrating when you have lack of support, but it's so important that you keep going. When I started both my fitness and writing journeys, I had no idea where it would take me. I had no idea that one day I would have 3 books on the market for sell at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iTunes. I had no idea that one day I would write blogs with the hope that I am helping at least one person. I definitely had no idea I would get the opportunity to work with an amazing company like IdealFit. When I first started all of this, I'm pretty sure the only person who knew everything I was doing was my husband. We have been working out together since we were sophomores in college, and I was even working out a lot longer than that. When I told him that ...
