Today I celebrate my birthday! The big 41. I don’t mind getting older, life just gets better and better.
We’ll be going out with friends on Saturday to celebrate. Have you ever been to Seasons 52? I have always wanted to go, so what better time to do it.
This weeks menu will be some of my favorites and even some new recipes I want to try. We will do our best to eat at home every night!
It was a great birthday weekend! On my birthday, we went out to one of my favorite restaurants for sushi and then picked up a small ice cream cake at a fun shop called the Twisted Cow. Came home and shared some with our neighbor and she brought me some fun gifts (a pretty shirt, earrings, ring, body lotion and balloons). I still haven’t decided what I’ll be buying for myself for my b-day but I’m leaning towards some office organization stuff, workout items and a few other things . Mom and dad bought me an awesome wheeled computer bag that I have had my eye on and I love it.
Here are the beautiful flowers hubby bought me!
We went to spin class Saturday morning, had breakfast at Starbucks and then headed to a local Farmer’s Market on our way home. I’m looking forward to more of those this season. Then we took a glorious nap and went back out to run some errands. Sunday was the day to sleep in and then we spent the afternoon and evening with my stepson Tyler and his gal Melissa. Shopped, had dinner and hung out by the fire roasting marshmallows. Fun times!
My workouts for the week were OK but could definitely use improvement.
Please help me celebrate THREE years of blogging at Losing It and Loving It. On 2/22/08, I started this weight loss/fitness blog to share my journey and hopefully help inspire others to keep going with their healthy lifestyle. You may be thinking that homemade chocolate peanut butter cups don’t belong on a this type of blog I would disagree *wink*
On February 22, 2008, I started this blog! I can’t believe how fast the time has gone. It’s been a lot of fun and I have learned a lot. I want to send out a big THANK YOU to my faithful readers and commenters. This blog would be nothing without you.
It would be my birthday wish that you would share this blog with your friends and family or anyone you can think of who might have weight loss and fitness questions or who might be looking for guidance in this area. Also, please feel free to contact me with questions and I’ll put all questions in queue to post about in the future. It’s my goal over the next year to grow my readership here on the blog and with your help, I’ll be sure to accomplish that.
Although I won’t be serving any cake, cookies or brownies on the blog today, I do have an impromptu giveaway. Just decided today that I would give something to one of my faithful commenters who have commented three or more times over the past year. I had some fun this morning going through and looking at comments and I truly appreciate those of you who keep coming back to support me!
So I know you all want to know what I’m giving away. The prize will include the Walk Away the Pounds
Congrats Mark! Hope you enjoy your prize package and thank you very much for your support this past year. I truly appreciate it.
It’s been such a great experience to share my journey with everyone, even the struggles. I look forward to many years to come. Hope you have a great week!
