Woohooo! The weekend is almost here!
What a week we have had! The blizzard on Sunday and Monday brought a lot of snow to play in, and my son and I took advantage of it. We have over 4 1/2 feet of snow in our front yard. My 7 year old can now touch the tree branches from the top of the snow in our yard!
I got in some great workouts and had fun teaching my Spinning classes. My favorite workout was an upper body workout pyramid I came up with on Wednesday. I’m still sore from it. As you can see, Lady was on the couch behind me loudly snoring. She is so great when it comes to encouraging me to work harder during my workouts.
Wednesday I got to go out for a much needed drink with friends. I haven’t had a chance to go out with them in months, and I loved hearing their stories about getting chased by Girl Scouts trying to sell their cookies at the mall.
I just was selected as a Sweat Pink Ambassador a few weeks ago, and I couldn’t be more thrilled and honored to join such an inspiring group of women. My Sweat Pink gear came in the mail yesterday, and I’m already wearing it in pride. I’m looking forward to working with Sweat Pink to inspire others through my blog and my stories as others have inspired me. Sweat Pink is a, “Movement where tough and girly come together at last. It’s all about sharing the joy that comes from living a healthy lifestyle. It’s a celebration of hard work and well-earned rewards. Our pink shoelaces are a proud demonstration of all we’ve achieved, and all we plan to become.”
We had a little change in our menu, so I’ll be making the Caprese Pasta from Aris Menu tonight. I’m really looking forward to trying this new recipe out!
This morning I made my Power Protein Smoothie. I’ll hit the elliptical before I teach my spinning class and here is what I’m doing.
