Furious 7.

I'm not a movie person.  They don't generally excite me and I find it to be a rather large waste of time to park myself in front of a screen for 2-3 hours at a time.  Usually, I will wait until a movie comes out on DVD or even Netflix before I will watch it.  And, even then, I won't generally watch it without getting up a time or two to change loads of laundry or make something to eat.  However, there is one movie that we just had to go and see in the theatre...

The Fast and Furious movies have been a part of our family from day one.  These are the movies that our kids have been raised on.  Anytime a Fast and Furious movie is on TV, we have to watch it.  Even though we've seen it a hundred times and know each line word for word.  So it wasn't a big surprise that we made it a point to visit the theatre to watch Furious 7.  This movie was a great experience for us and our boys.  It had the fast cars, the intensity, the unnecessary girl fight, the fight that never ended,Vin Diesel broke the earth, and then Dwayne Johnson moved the earth, and then it ended in tears and us in the car downloading the soundtrack.  The absolute best part: we got to go for free thanks to our movie points (they even covered our popcorn)!!

The large child did actually want 
to be there, I swear.

So we did something fun!

So we did something super fun and scary last spring... we decided to move to our lake cabin full time !  Ahhh!  It's been very trying and very exciting and I think we're actually settled in out here.  Also, HI!  I know it's only been a short while since I posted last...errr...ok, it's been a year and a half, but priorities, right? So, yeah, downsizing...haha!  In 2 years, we've gone from 3800 square feet of living space to about... 750.  And, you know what? It's totally not all sunshine and rainbows, but it works!  Living at the lake and having all of these amazing trees around us is completely worth it.  The boys have settled into, yet, another new school and this school is the best one yet! Around the end of April last year, I came out to the cabin to clean up our holiday trailer so we could sell it.  I took a break, made a caesar , and sat on the front lawn with Duke in the small bit of sunshine that made its way through the ...

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

Drunken Jenga

My husband and I are avid game players, as well as avid drinkers.  What could possibly be better than turning Jenga into a drinking game? Making the game takes a little bit of time.  Each block needs an instruction.  The rules below allow for 3 blocks of each rule, with 3 blank blocks.  You can leave the last 3 blank, pick your 3 favorite rules to use again, or make up 3 completely random rules!  Try to use a permanent pen that doesn't bleed too much.  Write in large block letters.  Once you have the blocks all written out, you're ready for Drunken Jenga!  Rules of Drunken Jenga
