One of Life's Simple Pleasures - A Night in a Motel!

I have always been a fan of the simple things in life.  Even the smallest item or gesture can make a big difference, often leaving a positive and rewarding impact.  One of my simple pleasures is staying in a motel.  


My husband travels for work so staying in motels is not nearly as enjoyable for him, but the kids and I absolutely love getting away and getting to spend a night or two in a motel.  For me it is a mini vacation - away from home, no worries, no mess to clean up, no fuss.  For the kids, it is a chance to stay up late while watching tv, swimming in the indoor pool and jumping on the beds.  Yes... we let them jump on the beds when we stay in a motel - another one of those simple pleasures!

Whether we are staying at Hotel California, a motel in Miami, or a country bed and breakfast... I am going to make the most out of my time even if only for a night.

I've Got Some Oceanfront Property

I've got some ocean front property in Arizona. From my front porch you can see the sea, I've got some ocean front property in Arizona. And if you'll buy that I'll throw the Golden Gate in free! - George Straight


The beach has always been one of my favorite places.  From the very first moment I remember seeing the ocean, I have always dreamed of having an oceanfront vacation home.  Although that dream has yet to become a reality, we have already reserved an oceanfront beach rental for summer vacation.  Two more months... I am counting down the days!

A secluded, beautiful and private  oceanfront rental would be ideal, but not yet a reality within reach.  One day I am positive that I will be able to make my childhood dream come true.

Being able to see, hear, and smell the beach on a daily basis would make daily life seem so peaceful and relaxing.  There isn't a single thing that I don't love about the beach... well, except maybe the sand in my shorts!

High School Graduation - 20 Years Ago Today!

High school graduation is an important milestone as a teenager.  I was 17 years old, scared and excited to take the next step!  Twenty years ago today, I was part of the graduating class of 1993!  Where has the time gone?

Class of 1993... 20 Years Ago!
 Our 20 year reunion is this summer!

My 4 Month Smooth Fitness Treadmill Journey

I'm still a little blown away by the fact that it has already been four months since my Smooth Fitness treadmill arrived and my journey began.  Having this wonderful award winning piece of home exercise equipment readily accessible each and every single day has taken my fitness journey to an entirely new level.

Before becoming a Smooth Fitness Ambassador, exercise was something that I thought about often but rarely executed and put into action.  More often than not I would come up with some excuse, or simply put it off until tomorrow... and we all know that more often that not, tomorrow keeps getting put off!  Am I right?


The day that my treadmill arrived, I made a promise and a commitment to myself to use it 3-4 days a week without question.  No more excuses!  In less that a week, I could see and feel the difference.  I had more energy, I felt better, I was in a better mood, and I was sleeping better at night.

I will admit that during that first week I had asked myself what I was thinking, what I got myself into and wondered if it was worth it.  Even thought I finished, my first fitness test results were horrific, but that only made me want to do better.  I worked hard (both on the treadmill and by participating in a few fun runs with my children), and the last time I completed the fitness test my results had improved greatly!  

I went from not being able to run around the block to being able to run an entire mile!  Something that I never thought could have been possible, and I would have called you a liar if you had told me otherwise!  Now I know that I can and I am actually proud of myself and how far I have come.

Turn Your Dreams Into a Reality!

When you were a little kid, do you remember what you wanted to be when you grew up? Maybe you wanted to be an astronaut, fireman, police officer, nurse, or maybe even a writer!  For as long as I can remember I knew that I wanted to be a Mommy.  For me, I was fortunate enough to have my childhood dream become a reality when I was 25 years old.


My 12 year old son wants to be an engineer, architect and a professional football punter when he grows up.   If anyone can do it - he surely can!  My 9 year old daughter tells me that she is going to be a Mom just like me!

Sometimes people need a little help making their dreams come true. Did you know that AWAI has been making dreams come true for inspiring writers for over 20 years?  Having a leg-up can often mean the difference between failure and success.

Motivation... Because I'm Worth It!

Motivation... we all need it!  Motivation varies from one person to another and can even vary day to day.  Maybe your motivation is finally fitting in that bikini, liking what you see in the mirror, or positive reinforcement from family and friends.  

 "You are where you are because of who you were but where you go depends entirely on who you choose to be." ~Hal Elrod

My motivation is seeing my before pictures and where I am now...

A Trip Back in Time: Classic Rock Hits

I was born in the 70's and grew up listening to Classic Rock Hits on the  radio with my parents.  I even vaguely remember attending a Battle of the Bands concert in the park at a very young age.

Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR), The Beach Boys, Eagles, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Chicago and The Doors are just a few that come to mind when I think of classic rock.  


The thing I love most about listening to classic rock hits are the memories it brings back.  When I hear certain oldies, I remember a special time and place.  Many family road trips were paired with listening to classic rock hits on the radio.  Good times!

Sky High Sports Spokane Indoor Trampoline Fun Center - Giveaway

Are you looking for something fun and active to do with your children this summer?  If you live in the Spokane area, you need to take your children to Sky High Sports for a fun day of jumping off the walls!

I took my kids to Sky High Sports Spokane over Spring Break and we had a blast! From the main court area and the foam pits... back and forth, back and forth... the kids were going non-stop for 1 1/2 hours before they realized they were thirsty, hungry and exhausted!

We all had a BLAST, it was SO much fun!  Jumping, flipping, and laughing the entire time we were there. 
 
Both my kiddos (ages 12 and 9) say that their favorite parts were bouncing off the walls and the foam pit!  We can't wait to go back!  Not only was it a total blast, it was also a great workout!

Sky High Sports also offers AIRobics, Trampoline Dodgeball, Foam Pits, Birthday Parties, Group Events, Corporate Events, Fundraising Opportunities, Trampoline Walls and Floors!  Their wall-to-wall trampoline facility has been designed for one purpose: TO HAVE FUN.

TruMoo Single Serve Shelf-Stable Milk Boxes - Perfect for Children On the Go! (Review & Giveaway)

As I pack my children's cold lunches each morning, my main goal is to provide them with a good, healthy lunch!  It is important for them to have healthy foods to "feed" their tummies and their day of learning! I work in the lunch room at their elementary school and am shocked and horrified by what some of these young children bring to school for lunch.

When I was recently asked if I would like to take the TruMoo lunchbox challenge with my children I'll admit that I was both excited and skeptical.  Shelf-stable milk?  I'm one of those that won't drink milk if it's been left on the counter for too long, so how could I bring myself to try milk that didn't even need to be put into the fridge to stay fresh? 


Did you know that by switching out juice drink boxes for TruMoo milk boxes in school lunches, you can replace ingredients like high fructose corn syrup and artificial preservatives often found in juice drinks with the calcium, protein and vitamin D found in milk, all important for growing kids

My kids love milk - plain, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, butterscotch, caramel...  TruMoo milk is both delicious and nutritious!  It is also rich, smooth and makes the perfect addition to their lunchbox or any meal!

Simple Steps to Help Protect Yourself from Hackers

As much as I love the internet, I have always been concerned about certain information being stolen by hackers.  Several years ago my husband purchased train tickets online for his brother and a few days later we were contacted by our credit card company with concerns of suspicious activity on our account.  Sure enough, someone had gotten our credit card information and charged over $6000 worth of items including round-trip tickets to New York.


I know that nothing is full-proof but I do my best to make sure that my online transactions are as secure as possible.  I log-out after every online purchase, online banking session, and 

Data security is very important and something that everyone should be aware of.  There are several rules that I follow in order to help prevent our personal information from being stolen by hacking.  A few of the easiest include:

Gorton's Seafood: 20 Products with 200 Calories or Less (Review & Giveaway)

My kids and I absolutely LOVE seafood, but living in Idaho we rarely get to have fresh seafood. Visiting the Oregon Coast every summer helps, but we need more than that to satify our seafood needs.  That's why we count on the Gorton's fisherman! 

I've been lucky enough to be provided with the opportunity to try a variety of Gorton's seafood at home with my children and we can't get enough. Gorton's Seafood tastes delicious.  


As part of our decision to eat healthier, I'm thrilled that Gorton’s offers 20 products with 200 calories or less per serving.  We especially love their Shrimp Scampi, Buttery Shrimp and Grilled Tilapia.

With so many different types and kinds of seafood, you can create the perfect meal every night of the week.  Every single time!  How about sitting down for a delicious and healthy meal that takes less than 30 minutes to prepare?  As a busy mom, meals that are healthy, quick and easy are often those that save the day and allow me to spend valuable time with my children.


If my kids had their way, we would have Gorton's Seafood for dinner every night of the week.  Unfortunately, Daddy doesn't like seafood so we can't indulge as often as we'd like!

My Fitness Test Results Are In: From Bad to Average!

As part of the #SmoothBlogger program I have been sharing my personal experiences since receiving an amazing treadmill.

Two months ago I completed the fitness test on my Smooth Fitness treadmill for the very first time.  I will admit that I was a little disappointed with the results, but it made me want to do better.  My goal was to improve just a little bit each time I took the fitness test.  Any improvement was going to be considered a success in my eyes.

 

The fitness test program grades you on your speed of completion, which is determined by how far can you walk, jog or run in 12 minutes.  You receive 1 of 5 grades: very bad, bad, average, good or very good.

This morning after completing the fitness test on my top rated treadmill, I received something that I never had before... my result was not "bad" this time but instead it was "average!"  

Were my eyes playing tricks on me?  I had to take a double-look to make sure that I did indeed see what I thought I did flashing on the screen in front of me.

I am not a runner by any means of the word, but I have gone farther than I never thought possible since receiving my Smooth Fitness treadmill 

Running around the block was impossible and now I can jog for entire mile and a half!  A year ago if anyone had told me I'd be able to do that I wouldn't have believed them.

Today May 14 Is Haagen-Dazs Free Ice Cream Cone Day

Today is Haagen-Dazs free cone day, so take the kids to your local Haagen-Dazs and have a frugal after school treat.  I know that my kids love ice cream no matter what the occasion!

Bloomsday Results 2013 - Crossing the Finish Line!

On Sunday, May 5th my kids and I participated in the 37th annual Bloomsday Run in Spokane, Washington!  Bloomsday is a 12K Race (7.46 miles) that winds through the streets and neighborhoods of town and is ALWAYS the first Sunday in May!

As my daughter and I were standing in the very large crowd waiting for our color group to start, we both made our guesses at to what color the Bloomsday finisher shirts were going to be this year.  They are a different color with a different design every year and it is kept a secret until the finish line.  My daughter guessed orange and I chose grey - never thinking one of us would get it right.  

Along the Bloomsday course we noticed that the volunteer t-shirts were orange.  Could the finisher shirts be grey?  Only time would tell...

My twelve year old son ran with one of his friends, setting their finish time goal for 1 hour.  My son's main goal is to beat his time last year of 1 hour 9 minutes.  My nine year old daughter and I set a goal of finishing in 2 hours or less.  The crowds were insane this year, and we had a difficult time getting around people.  Jogging off and on was few and far between because my daughter and I simply didn't have enough room to get around people very often.
It was a beautiful day, but it was SO hot!  Of course there were several water stations along the route, but I know that the heat slowed us all down.  But, we kept on going, didn't stop and all of us made it to the finish line faster than we did last year!

Bloomsday Run 2013 - 12K Today in Spokane, Washington!


I HATE waking up early on weekends, but this is something the kids and I do every year.  Today is the 37th annual Bloomsday Run in Spokane, Washington!  Bloomsday is a 12K Race (7.46 miles) that winds through the streets and neighborhoods of Spokane, Washington and is ALWAYS the first Sunday in May!

Bloomsday draws a crowd of over 50,000 people! There are several water stations and honey buckets along the route. As well as numerous entertainment acts for your enjoyment, the Schwan's ice cream truck where you can buy ice cream treats, people selling otter pops out of coolers, and spectators to cheer you on! Believe it or not, Bloomsday really IS a lot of FUN!

My twelve year old son will be running this year with one of his friends.  They have set their finish time goal for 1 hour.  My son's main goal is to beat his time last year of 1 hour 9 minutes.  My nine year old daughter and I will be walking, and have set a goal of finishing in 2 hours or less.

Lose Weight, Eat More Food, and Gain Energy: The Fast Metabolism Diet!

As warmer weather and the thought of summer fun approaches, you may be thinking about getting your body ready for your bathing suit.  I have been sharing my weight loss journey with you over the past nine months, and recently began the latest chapter in my quest to a healthier lifestyle.

  I was recently asked to review the Fast Metabolism Diet weight loss book and didn't even think twice about accepting the challenge. 


Author Haylie Pomroy was recently featured on the Dr. Oz show, where he called her the "Metabolism Whisperer." She's a celebrity nutritionist who has helped thousands of clients lose weight- all through the fat-burning power of food. Haylie reminds us that food isn't the enemy, but just the opposite.

I've tried not eating in the past to lose weight, but the results were never good.  I felt terrible, was always hungry, and ended up gaining weight in the process.  I learned the hard way that you have to feed your body in order to lose weight.

The Fast Metabolism Diet is broken down into three phases that are carefully designed to induce precise physiological changes that will set your metabolism on fire.
