Today and Everyday
If you are looking for me this Fall, I am probably at a soccer game cheering on one of my boys, so it seems fitting that my next group has a bit of a Fall sports theme. I mean, why not? We can score goals, set up plays, make great passes, and celebrate our victories […]
We will focus on nutrition, working out and taking better care of ourselves with a fun ABC countdown theme. The first few days, we will be getting ready to go “Back to School”.

We are only a few away from the start of school. Though this summer may have felt a little more “normal” for many of us, it was still stressful. Did you get a chance for some down time?

However, there are a lot of misconceptions around Shakeology. I want to address them. And, after reading this, I think you will […]
Sound familiar? I’m too tired….I’m too busy….I have too much going on with the kids….I don’t think I can do it. All excuses not to workout. Excuses we have all probably said or used ourselves. I know I have. The thing is, you know you should start. Or you know you should get that workout […]
