Good morning Monday!  I hope your week is off to a great start!  Last night, as I started preparing my calendar and agenda for the week ahead, I started to feel already overwhelmed with all.the.things.

September means we’re back knee deep in after school homework and sports are back in session with mid-week practices and weekend games.  As much as I like the routine, I often feel the tension between trying to balance my need for s l o w days with my ambitious and productive nature.  Can anyone relate to that?

This week, I’m trying to be extra disciplined and work smart during my work hours,

Good morning friends!  I hope your week is going wonderfully!  We has such a good time on our weekend trip to Galveston and definitely could’ve stayed a few more days.  I’ll do a detailed recap on my blog soon, but in the meantime, I shared quite a bit on Stories and saved it to a Highlight in case you’re interested or plan on going soon.

When we got home, it was all about unpacking and laundry and cleaning house and eating and Jordan’s nap and I finally got in a good jog at the park.  I needed it after eating all.the.food while we were away! 

Good morning friends! I hope your week is off to a great start!  I finally got to the doctor, so hopefully today is the last day you’ll hear me mentioning how bad I’ve been feeling the past week!  Isn’t it the worst when you don’t feel well?  It really makes you think twice about taking your health for granted!

Which is also why I’m hoping your 7-Day Reset got off to a great start yesterday!  Y0u’ll be receiving a happy mail email from Cari & I today, so don’t forget to check your inbox!  I’m planning to share my meals with y’all on Stories,

Good morning friends!  It’s an exciting day!!  Today, we’re shooting the photos for the fitness eBook that will launch this month!  These are the photos that will correspond to the weekly workouts so that you’ll know exactly how to do each move if you aren’t familiar with the name of the exercise.  It’ll actually be a major workout for me because I’ll be demonstrating everything, but we have a special guest coming for the ‘Partner Workout’.  Any guesses who it is?!  You can follow me (and find out!) on Stories.

Also,

Happy Friday friends!  Did y’all have a good Halloween?  We almost got completely rained out, but we got a 30 minute break in the rain to do some trick-or-treating.  Jordan was Daniel Tiger and James was DJ Marshmallow.  Then we got home just in time to lose power for the night and the next morning due to heavy storms.  My poor friend and photographer Tisha woke up to a big tree down in her backyard! So sad!

It’s been a crazy couple days and I’m sure looking forward to relaxing this weekend! I’ll be back next week with some big news,

Three cheers for Friday!  Are y’all ready for the weekend?!  We have our first little league baseball game this weekend, which should be interesting considering it’s the first time for ‘kid pitch’!

FITNESS CHALLENGE

Let’s make sure we have our plan in place so that we can stay strong on the Fitness Challenge during the weekend.  Subscribe here so you get NEXT WEEK’S MEAL PLAN in your email!

If you need extra encouragement, head over to our Private Facebook group where you can also watch Cari’s Q&A. She’s a wealth of knowledge and I’m so thankful to have her partnering with me on this Challenge!

We’re already halfway into May, which means it’s time for another Monthly Loves!  I love sourcing goodies and putting these collages together for you!  And, since most of my posts tend to be lengthy, I think these short and sweet posts are nice for a change!

Also, thank you for your patience while we worked out the tech issue that was preventing my blog from going out to subscribers and on blog readers, like Bloglovin.  It should be fixed now, but if you have any issues please let me know. And if you want to subscribe to Honey We’re Home (thank you!!),
