We tried a new recipe tonight and it was delish!!

Quick, easy and 5 out of the six people in my family ate it and liked it - that’s a WIN 🏆

Give it a try and let me know what you think 😋

Covid 2.0 hit our house this past week, and after family member #3 tested positive yesterday morning I found myself in a not so good place mentally 😔

I was tired - physically and emotionally - dealing with another bout of this virus. I was also angry. Angry about the fun things we had to miss out on. Angry about the hours I spent worrying and the chores that went undone as I lay in bed sleeping for what felt like days. When mom is sick the house stops running - am I right?

So much anger and frustration filled me, that I knew this morning something had to change. Past my quarantine and now testing negative, I laced up my shoes, put my “Jesus music” in my ears and walked. It. Out.

As I walked I let go of the fatigue, the anger, the frustration. I breathed in the fresh air, enjoyed the breeze, closed my eyes against the sunlight and with each footstep I focused on the blessings.

Gratitude, my friends, is what will get us through 🙏

I literally walked and walked - listing in my head EVERYTHING I could think of that I was grateful for. And you know what? It helped. A lot.

Thank you God for my struggles, for without them I would not know my strengths. Thank you God for my sorrows, for without them I would not realize my joys. ☀️🙏💕

Swiss chard fresh from the garden 😋

Not MY garden - but from our amazing, local Spring Creek CSA 🌱

Here’s how we prepare it:
1. Sauté onion and garlic in a pan with a little olive oil
2. Chop up the chard leaves and stalks and add to the pan
3. Heat until wilted
4. Like some heat? Sprinkle in a little 🌶 powder.

Serve as a delicious side or main dish!

Enjoy!

Headed home from the Northwoods shortly, but wanted to get a workout in first 💪 If you’re looking for a quick and effective calorie burn (with no required equipment) this program is a great option!

I hope you all are having a great day!

Mission accomplished ✅

Sweat fest at my house this morning 💦

I tackled “Cycle & Strength 30” with Elise Joan on BODi and WOW!! I loved it! Definitely recommend it 💪

The new pink Zyia tank definitely lifted my spirits on this cloudy morning too 💕 Have a great day everyone!

I got 3.5 hilly miles in on the bike this morning 🚲 I wasn’t sure which ride to pick, but when I saw the trainer’s red leggings 😍 I knew! Twins 😉

I’m excited to start the newest program, “Fire & Flow”. I’m putting a group together for this program - let me know if you’d like to join in, or if you’d like more info 👍

(Bike not required)

Happy Summer!! ☀️😎⛱🍉

All four of my kiddos are home on summer break, which means I’ll hear “Mom, can I have a snack?” about a million times a day 🤪

I scored this Tupperware veggie tray at the Dahn family garage sale last week and hit up ALDI yesterday for fresh veggies to fill it up.

I’m hoping having this prepped and ready to eat will help us make good snack choices, and it’ll serve as an easy side to quick dinners. 🤞

But let’s keep it real — I also made puppy chow this morning to send with Gabe on a hiking outing. It’s all about Balance 😆

Finding quality 1:1 time with each of my kids can sometimes be difficult. But this summer Clara and I have a plan! We’ve decided to take walks together every day - just us - and track our miles through the “Walking on Sunshine” summer miles challenge.

I’m looking forward to all the conversations we will have while walking…although anyone who knows Clara well, knows I will be doing more listening than talking 🤣

The walking challenge is only $20 to join, you log your miles walked between May 30-Sept 5 AND you get a t-shirt.

Consider joining the challenge and let’s get walking! 🚶🏾‍♂️🚶🚶🏻‍♀️

Looking for a summer challenge?!

This challenge runs between May 30-September 5
How many miles can you run/walk? Join us for the Endless Miles Challenge and find out what you're made of!

DISTANCE TRACKING:
In the spirit of the event the miles that you get from steps taken during the day do not count.
Miles intentionally run/walked from point A to point B, covering a distance, do.
It's all about honesty!

WHAT'S YOUR GOAL THIS SUMMER?
Set that goal and then rack up as many miles as you can between Memorial Day and Labor Day

Everyone receives a 2022 ENDLESS MILES SHIRT
PRIZES WILL BE AWARDED TO TOP MILES

Only $20 to participate
