Back on plan!

So long over due to be back on plan, when I say that I mean back on Weight Watchers... I have done it before, actually this time around is the third time...What do they say Third times a charm? SOOO...this week is going into week three and I am down 4.4 pounds. I have been waking up at 4am and hitting the gym. I feel great and so far so good! The hard part will come next week when I back on a group and my hours are not 9-5 they are like 6am - 7 or 8pm...and am I gonna want to go to the gym after a long day like that...probably not, BUT I will be!! Gotta do this!
For some reason this time is just different and I am very motivated to see results and feel awesome for myself!! I also like to find new recipes for dinner to cook that are yummy and low in points. Yes I will be adding some more recipes on Diva's Dishes, I am way overdue to add a post on their. I am gonna try to add tonight... key word TRY!

Wedding Cruise Vacation

So after our wonderful wedding ceremony and Luncheon Reception we headed on our Cruise Vacation, we had a total of 30 people sailing and everyone had an awesome time! The first night we went to the opening show in the theater area and then hit up the casino! When we woke up in the morning we were at Cocoa Cay! That is Royal Caribbeans private island. It was really nice and tropical, we had a full day there and had a great time! it was a little overcast, but for me it was perfect! That night was the "Love and Marriage" Game, of course Anthony and I were selected to play! It was crazy and fun! Then the next day we were in the Bahama's! We took a tour with a local taxi driver and that was like 3 hours long! Then we headed back to the boat and grabbed some lunch. After that we went to the beach and relaxed in the water for a few hours, had a banana boat ride back to the port! That was so much fun!! The next day was a day sailing at sea, it was just a relaxing day and we just hung out started packing. That night before dinner we had a Cocktail Reception for everyone that sailed with us, just to say Thank you for taking their vacation with us! Overall we had such an awesome time! We are so glad everyone cruised with us and are so glad we decided to do the wedding cruise!!

Wedding Day!!

Last week the day finally came!!! Wedding Day! What a wonderful day we had with great family and friends! We could not have asked for more, it was perfect! Thank you to all of those who traveled to come join us! We had a great time and hope you did as well!!

Bridal Shower Take 2!

Anthony and I went to NY to visit my family and to celebrate our niece's Abby and Becca's 7th Birthday! (I moved to Florida 4 months before they turned 1...I have NEVER been home for one of their birthdays!!) Well along with an awesome visit with family I was able to visit with my dear friend Karyn and her husband Rob and their adorable son Seth. (We went to a diner, which in Florida there are none... :) ) On Saturday was going to be "Girls Day" and "Boys Day" girls were going to go get lunch and shop a little and the guys went to play golf. We had to be at my sisters at 1pm to pick her up, so mom and I woke up early and took a ride to Windsor (My hometown) and went to visit Brian at Sky Lake (The summer camp I used to be a camper at and worked at for 7 years) and to see how beautiful as always it is up there...then we drove up to the lake where I grew up and just looked around. We stopped in the village at the farmers market and went to a little coffee shop and got a little bite to eat and a drink. Just having a good time visiting with mom and seeing the wonderful town I grew up in!! So we get back to Binghamton and get to my sisters house and when I walk in...Surprise!!! My sister threw me another shower...but I had NO clue! It was such a surprise I started crying!! It was great! To have everyone gathered together was so special since I am not home often. Such an awesome thing and I had a wonderful afternoon! (My sister has all the pictures from the shower...) I have included some pictures from the weekend!! How lucky am I to have a wonderful sister like I do?? The count down is on for the wedding...we are down to 13 days!!!

Bridal Shower Take 1

Back over Easter...I know it has been a while... my sister Amy and her husband Jim and the kids Abby, Becca and Gavin came down to Florida and while they were here Amy and Meleny threw me a Bridal Shower! It was so great to see all my friends and family all together to celebrate our upcoming wedding! The guys of course had a boys day...well Anthony had work, but Gavin and Jim went to the movies and Downtown Disney for the afternoon. The rest of the weekend we enjoyed an awesome weekend hanging out by the pool and dying some easter eggs for the Easter Bunny to find!!

Gym Time

We have been going to the gym for two weeks now. Just adding it into out routine is what we HAVE to do and ARE doing! I usually get their first as Anthony does not get out of work until about 6 or so. They do have awesome classes that are included with your membership and they are Les Mills classes. So all the instructors go to his training seminars to learn the moves and get certified as a "Les Mills Trainer". So far I have taken  and . I really like the combat class and have gone twice already.  Next week I am going to go to the Body Jams class. The gym we are going to is located at Celebration Health and the staff is really nice! It is and awesome facility and super clean! Other bonuses are that some of my friends go their from Gaylord so that is nice to run into and or work out with friends! Also, this week a girl in my office and I were talking and she told me she goes their as well. Over all the gym experience has been awesome so far!

Spring Time

I changed the colors of the blog, I wanted something new and fresh for the spring! Knowing that I have not been posting as frequently as I would like to...I am going to make some time once a week to post something! Easter weekend was awesome, Amy, Jim, Abby, Becca, Gavin and my mom were in town for not only Easter, but for my bridal shower and then after the weekend went over to spend a few days visiting my Uncle Don.

The bridal shower was wonderful and it was great to see some friends that I had not seen in a while! The whole weekend was just awesome! On the side are pictures my sister took from the shower and of the kids while they were visiting.

We are excited because we are going to NY in a few weeks to visit! My sister Amy found an awesome price on flights so we could not pass it up, and the weekend of the 28th just happens to be Abby and Becca's 7th Birthday weekend! So that will be alot of fun to go home to help celebrate! I have never been to one of their birthdays yet since they were born! I moved to Florida 4 months before their 1st birthday! So it will be special to beable to join in the fun!

Wedding dress is in and I picked it up! Actually the day I picked it up I got into a "fender bender", I was at a red light and a guy hit me. At any rate, I am fine. My car is currently in the shop and will be for two weeks getting fixed! I got an awesome rental, 2010 Mazda 3! It is fun to drive!

Two weeks ago Anthony and I joined a gym...so we have been going daily after work, making it a new routine. Meleny (Anthony's sister) is a nurse at Celebration Hospital and they have a full gym on site. It is open to the public and they were having a special for friends and family to join, we could not pass it up. So we have been going and I even went to some of the classes they had, BodyStep and BodyCombat. So far so good!

Well I think that is about if for now! Keep checking back, I really will be updating more!

Wow am I a slacker?

Well what can I say...am I a slacker?? I feel like one, not only have I not updated this blog or my Diva's Dishes blog...well since mid January thing have just been so busy! We had a House warming party mid Jan. which was so much fun and Thank you everyone for coming...Thank you notes are on the way!!! 

Right after the party work has just been basically non stop! So I feel like I have had no time to get anything done. Even around the house! Today I cleaned and tried to get some stuff done before the next group starts!! I just finished a group that was 2 weeks long and it was the second year working with the client, last year I "shadowed" the group, my co-worker is going to retire, so they wanted to "groom" me for the group, so this year was my turn...It went really well. It is the "biggest" group to date that I have done, 25,000 people during the 3 days it was open. I was pretty happy that everything went well and the client went home happy! 

Anthony has also been busy with work, his father got a white German Shepard from Meleny. (Anthony's sister) and so he goes over to his parents to help train Everest. Everest is scared of Anthony and Anthony's dad says he listens better to Anthony then to him!! lol!!

Our neighborhood is growing, they are building 3 houses at the same time, right next to ours...so it is busy and loud!!! But, we are excited for the houses to be built and to get more neighbors!

I finally bought my wedding dress, a few weeks ago, and Meleny and Amy have their bridesmaids dresses picked out so everything for the wedding so coming together. It is coming quickly!!!

Well that is about all that has been happening, I will be trying to schedule some blog time in the coming weeks...sorry I am such a slacker! Hope all is well and talk to you soon! 

UFC Fight Night!!

On the 27th after Christmas we had the UFC Fight night at our house! What went from inviting Meleny and Jose over turned into "oh yeah and call this person"... I made some yummy food and this was our first "offical" get together in the house so it was fun!!
