So excited!!

We're goin to the chapel...

next summer!!  Hopefully the begging of June, depending on

if the venue we want is available or not.

I live in a very small town and there aren't many choices...

especially since I have my heart set on an old barn :)

So this place...

Will hopefully be my venue!! I am just in love with it.

I have an appt on friday for a tour. I know it's more than a

year in advance, but it's a very popular place.

My head is already spinning with so many

ideas. It isn't even funny.

For the most part, I'm just trying to figure out colors and

the general theme I'm going with.

So far I love peacock feather colors. But

the main focus I want is burlap and mason jars.

And classic for me is sparkles. So it needs

to be done right for it to look like it goes together.

Here's some of my inspiration, hope you enjoy :)

Classy and rustic

Can totally DIY that whole centerpiece

colors. mostly just the blue.

colors again...

If I could just change the light blue to dark blue
it would be perfect. Everything I want
at my wedding.

This centerpiece to, can easily do it myself.

Engagement. Love it.

Lights!!

chalkboard!!

Mason jars, twine, and burlap. Yes please.

Obsesses with mini foods.

Thank you cards!!

Love the tissue paper balls
not so much the colors

All this pre-wedding planning has taken me away from my

school work...Uh oh...

Got to finish school if I want to be able

to live comfortably with my soon to be hubby ;)

So for today, that is all.

Thanks for reading!!



Update and some BIG news!

So I actually did have the flu.

I got sick that night and was down for about 3 days.

Apparently it's going around my town.

Yuck. Gross.

Along with being sick, it brought another

health problem to my attention.

It never seems to end.

Hopefully I will get everything taken care of before to long.

It's like my life doesn't want me to do p90x right now because the next day....

I GOT ENGAGED!!!

I'm so excited and such a happy girl.

I get to marry my best friend.

I couldn't ask for more.

So the next two days after that were celebrating and telling the family...

which unfortunately didn't leave much time to work out. Excuses, excuses, I know.

But I don't care right now.

Obviously I'm still continuing my healthy eating habits, with a new restricting of dairy food.

Apparently it's causing a severe reaction in my stomach

causing me to have acid reflux which in turn is making

my stomach bleed.

Fun right??

So as of right now I'm not eating dairy or wheat.  It's HARD.

But I will do it to feel better.

I am already having so much fun beginning to plan this wedding.

I'll probably blog about it all the time.

Hopefully more people will read so I can get

awesome suggestions from other amazing DIY bloggers.

Did I mention I'm having a DIY wedding??

SO EXCITED!!



Day Two!!

Okay, so today was plyometrics, the "X in p90x" according to the guy.

It was hard. Lots of jumping. Not impossible.

The moves are easily modified.

I'm very sore.

But the workout wasn't my problem.

It's how I feel now.

Like shit.

shit.

shit.

shit.

I feel like I'm going to die of the flu.

My stomach hurts, my head hurts, I feel like I'm going to puke.

I'm having digestion problems to put it lightly.

I looked this up on the internet to see why its happening.

There's a name for it.

Supposedly my bodies cells are getting rid of all the toxins. All at once.

So all my nasty endotoxins are getting into my blood stream.

I believe it. I just hope I really don't get the flu.

I think I might cry actually.

That's how bad it hurts right now.

I am very dedicated to this program and I would hate for my

previous "unhealthiness" to get in the way of my goals.

So I'm gonna get some sleep and pray that I

fell better tomorrow.

That's all.



Hello!!

So I've been gone far to long, no excuse besides I didn't feel like blogging.

I can't seem to find the happy medium where it doesn't feel like a job..

anyways, I did NOT like insanity.  I knew I

hated it after day 1 so I did one week

and decided on something else.

So I started p90x.

It's so much better for me and way more of what I

am looking for.

Insanity is cardio, plyometrics, and using your body.

p90x is much more resistance training

and I love it so much more.

I'm going to keep a diary on here for myself and others to know what to expect.

Day 1:

Chest and back plus abb ripper x.

Almost an hour and half.

You will need a chair, a pull up bar, and weights or resistance band

In short, expect lots of pushups and pullups.  LOTS.  Actually,

it's nearly the whole video. My "bra fat" hurts and in between

my shoulders.

Also, this video brings to light how many muscles

forgotten about in most other workout videos. This one move, thats like a

diving pushup roll thing, is KILLER.  I could only do 4. And even

those barely count.  No real pullups.

Im starting from the beginning and will probably have to do 3 rounds for full results.

THe diet was good today, I ate good portions and

healthy food. I bought a recovery formula for after my workouts

at walmart, and it is DELICIOUS. I'll post what it is later.

Wish my luck. I'm sure I'll be much more sore tomorrow!!
