Self Improvement Plan: Written in 2011

If you remember my goals for this year post, I said I wanted to be healthier and lose a little weight before my wedding (yay). I haven't been toooo bad since that goal was made. I haven't been working out EVERY morning but I have been eating better. 
Anyway, as I was browsing around the internet looking at things from the past (1950s) I found a youtube video with a 10 point plan to follow for one week involving self improvement. Yes, diet and exercise are on the list but there is so much more. Things that we all should be working on every day...but a journey begins with a single step so will you take this weeks challenge with me? I know it's Wednesday but let's take these 10 points and work on them until next Wednesday. Let's see what we can do!

Take it away Jack!


And for your happiness... I've made the 10 point plan ready for you to print out and stick to your mirror!

100 Posts!


Hey Everybody! This is my 100th blog post.
Here I was on a typical Tuesday morning about to make a post fearturing my awesome weekend and lo and behold I see this is my 100th post. I don't know about you but that made me smile.
You know what this calls for....BALLOONS!!!!!!!






Ok, now that I've celebrated enough, let met tell you about my weekend.



The History Department here at school took all the history majors to a civil war reinactment day and I got to tag along! (tottaly beat last year when I had to spend Saturday by myself while Mike was gone on the trip)
Anyway, the day was full of activities and comepletely awesome. Here are some pictures we took...



I have a couple of hats like this...I'm just not sure where or when to wear them...










I had to stop and take pictures of this gorgeous senery, Mike smiled at me and said "you'd think she's never seen a flower before!".



Let me just say that it was pretty awesome and fun learning all about the civil war and the people who lived int hat time period. If you've never really gotten into history you've missed out. These people lived in an entirely diffrent culture and it's rather intersting to learn about them...maybe people will think that we're interesting to learn about in years to come...




Mike bought me this yarn. Scroll down for the story...


Of course this little tent caught my eye. The lady who runs this little set up raises her own sheep and makes yarn from their wool. She had all kinds of colors and textures. I bought 2 natural "samples". One from a white lamb, and one from a black lamb. I'm not sure what I'll make with them yet...whatever it is it has to be epic! Any ideas are appreciated.



Wodden Spools...can't wait to edit this photo.


That's all for now guys; I have a ton of pictures from Saturday that I'll try and put up later.
I hope you had as much fun on your weekend as I had in mine!

Bye Bye!
