Going back...

...to the Greenbrier!! Aus and I are headed to Clif and Kimmy's wedding at the Greenbrier this weekend and I am SO excited. SO ready for a break and some serious party time!! We are headed to the lake tomorrow afternoon to stay a quick night with Aus' parents and then we will wake up Sat AM and drive to WV. I will be sure to post lots of pics when I return!! Here is one from our trip last summer that Aus took. 

 Last weekend Abi was here and we had some serious fun. The weather was kinda crappy so we opted out of going to the beach. We took her to Frankie's Fun Park for a few hours so she could play bumper boat, laser tag, sky walk and arcade it up for a bit. She had a fun time...and so did we! 

We watched the new Footloose Saturday night and it was SO good. I highly recommend it. I loved it, Abi loved and Austin even loved it! Go check it out...right now...seriously! 


I've almost finished two weeks of Body by Vi. I feel so much better already and I've lost 5 lbs! Wahoo! I hope to stick to it for the full 90 days. It's going to be a challenge for sure! I got this cute little blender to make my shakes at work. I love it and the top is a lid you drink out of so I drink it right out of there. Lovely. :)

Trying to eat lots of healthy dinners. We've had grilled chicken the past 8 nights out of 10! whoa!

My other meal...when Aus wasn't here to grill.  haha

I even got in a visit with sweet Claudia this week! She is so cute! I love going to Danville to visit my girls. I only wish they lived closer. I guess an hour away isn't too bad, though. :)

I'm headed to bed. Busy day tomorrow...gotta take Molly to the boarder, hair cut then hair color appointment (yes, two different places) eye brow wax, mani and pedi, run by the mall, then home to pack for the weekend. Suuuuper excited!!!!

Body by Vi and our weekend

We had a super fun little weekend. Peyt, Alissa and sweet Caroline came to see us! We hung out, went to the mall and to lunch, drank some good vino and ordered in pizza! Saturday evening we also headed down the road to one of our favorite session locations and had a quick shoot with the three of them. Caroline was so happy and smily for us. Well, that is if I stood behind Austin squeaking her giraffe and doing a little dance. :) I think she was quite entertained. 

Sunday we hung around the house and then went to lunch and they hit the road. I so badly wished they lived closer!! 

In other news, I started the Body by Vi challenge this week. Today (Wednesday) is day number 3. I had never heard of it but the other day I was reading Carter's blog and then I blog stalked over to Nickies blog and there I read about her challenge and her success! I was super impressed and knew this was something I needed to try. The shakes taste SUPER good...so that makes it easy. The one in the picture was a strawberry and banana shake and I think that combo is my favorite. There are tons of recipes online to try...so far I've had that one, blueberry, peaches and cream, birthday cake, and pineapple! Sounds pretty delish huh? It is!! I don't know you Nickie but thank you for blogging about your success! I hope to share my before and after pictures after the 90 challenge is over. (and yes, I took the before pictures and that was sheer torture.) 

So, you drink two shakes a day (breakfast and lunch) and then eat a healthy dinner. This week we've been eating grilled chicken with veggies and some type of potato. Not too shabby at all! Hoping I make it the 90 days! 

Sunday night was the last night before the "challenge" so we decided to go somewhere delish. We were downtown so we headed over to The Pit for BBQ. Have y'all ever been? It is ridiculously good. Not just the BBQ, but all the sides!! ahh. Let me just tell you what I ate: first we got BBQ fries which were fries with melted pimento cheese (Umm, hello party in my mouth), chives and BBQ ranch dressing. Then I got the BBQ plate...which was BBQ with Mac and Cheese and cheesy bacon grits. Hello carbs! It was freaking fantastic. 

We don't have much going on this weekend...maybe heading down to Carolina beach for the day if the weather is nice. I'm off to cook dinner now...see ya later friends!
