Health and Fitness:
We've done pretty well in this area so far. This was my first time back at camp on a consistent basis since this summer. I committed to 2 days a week at camp, and I made sure they were weight days since that's my favorite thing to do. I've been consistently working out 3 days a week. The third day is usually a home workout doing a Beach Body workout or lifting some weights in my garage. I've lost about 7 pounds this month just by doing an 80/20 diet and working out. I've gotten a little lax this last week or so, but CG Fit is coming up and I've got to be on point. Here are some fun times we've been having at camp so far:
First day back at camp and my workout buddy and I are once again reunited! I just love when she and I get to workout together!!!
When several of your crew cheat on their primary trainer (sorry, Robin) with you.....
So, I needed 2 buddy BINGO stamps and called upon the bonds of friendship when I asked these girls to drive from Plano to come workout with me. My one and only workout with Robin this camp.
When you get to workout with your squad (minus one)
The "other woman trainer"
Listen, she gets me. When you do minimal running at your camps and it's all weights, you've won me over!
I must share my go-to breakfast: dark chocolate kodiak pancakes with a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt drizzled with honey and cinnamon and topped with fruit. Throw in 2 scrambled eggs with turkey sausage crumbles and you've got protein for days!
My current obsession:
All. The. Lularoe.
This is a legitimate problem for me. Like, I'm buying things weekly! Pretty soon, Mr. B is going to have to vacate our closet and move his clothes to the other bedroom. Leggings, Carlys, Maxis. I. Can't. Stop!!!!
I'm pretty sure my collection has doubled since this pic was taken.....
Check out this funky outfit that I rocked this week!
What I'm loving:
My Shakeology and accountability group. My cousin runs these accountability groups that keep us all accountable with our shakes, eating, and workouts. I'm all in on this Beach Body health bet. It helps that the shake is so delicious. I've been taking daily pics of me with my shake to win this health bet!
Unsweetened vanilla almond milk, chocolate shakeology, natural peanut butter!
Fun times with my sweetie:
We haven't done very much this month. Our work schedules keep us pretty busy. We still try to find some time to cuddle up on the couch and chill. We are homebodies. Our couch is our favorite place to be all snuggled up in blankets with our two pups! However, starting in February we are doing a marriage study together. We are really excited to dive in to the study and strengthen our marriage. I may or may not be planning a date night for Valentine's Day.....
This was after a rare workout we were able to do together
couch cuddles: our favorite thing to do
Packers vs. Cowboys......I'm just going to leave my thoughts about his choice of team right here
The right choice
Clearly I was on the losing side of this fight this time around. I felt better the next week when his team got beat by the Falcons. All is well in Browning World now.
date night for the twins' birthday
my caption says it all
Thanks filter!
Fun with friends:
We celebrated the twins' birthday earlier this month. We had dinner at Misty and Adrian's (steak, green beans, and loaded mashed potatoes). We headed out to enjoy a concert by the Josh Abbott Band that evening. We always enjoy putting on our cowboy boots and enjoying some country music. #officiallyover30
From celebrating 21 together to celebrating 31 together. Love these girls!
Cowboy boots!!! Who do you think the odd one out is....? Here's a hint: It's the one who "tolerated" the evening for his spouse.
Me and my Christy
Me and my Misty
The pretty one
The obligatory silly one
The group! #yayforselfiesticks
Last night, we got to attend the Westside annual congregational singing. I look forward to this event every year. I've been going since I moved here. Singing is one of my absolute favorite things to do. It's even better when it's with hundreds of other saints singing praises to our Lord and Savior!
School Stuff:
I can't believe we are already into the second semester and the end of the 4th six weeks is almost here! I've had such a great year so far! Now we are getting into testing season. I'm a first timer when it comes to state testing, but I'm going into it with confidence. My sweet kids will be ready when May comes around. I've enjoyed hanging out with these fun 3rd graders. I work with fun people and have a great support system. This was the right move for me! I even participated in the Battle of the Books this year. That was so much fun!!! We also got our Chromebooks, so now all our 3-5th graders have their own technology. I've been really taking advantage of that.
Team Bookaneers took 2nd place! Yeah, we're dressed as pirates
So far 2017 has been good to us. We are excited to go to Lubbock next month to celebrate Jude's 2nd birthday. We are still working on our journey to becoming parents. We haven't given up on that hope. February is a short month that we plan on jam packing with greatness!
