Vacation

Well, my wonderful husband took me to a resort for my 30th birthday this weekend. Great news! I had to eat out all weekend after not eating out at all for over a month, not great news! There weren't many places to choose from where we were, so we had to just make the best choices we could. One great surprise was that we found a hamburger place that raised their own grass-fed cows for their burgers. Yeah! The owner is a farmer. If you are ever in Paoli, IN stop in at Super Burger. 
We split oatmeal, fruit and an omelet each morning for breakfast.  The oatmeal was so filling that we were able to eat small lunches and snack on trail mixes, etc.  You may not be able to tell from this picture, but that bowl of oatmeal is huge!!!  (The toast did not get eaten)

Our exercise for the weekend, 18 holes of golf. Now I haven't played golf in about 5 years and we were playing on a pretty tough course, so let me just brag for a second... I parred 3 holes! This is one of them.  My husband of course played great! I did however beat him on one hole, this one, my favorite one. My small little victory.
Other than golf, I didn't do any more exercising. My body definitely needed time to rest after last week. So I made sure to get plenty of sleep and drink plenty of water. Now we are home and headed back to the gym tonight. After all of that food this weekend, I will be hitting the treadmill pretty hard. It's time to start seriously training for a 5k.

    Hey Kim!

    Just wanted you to know you've inspired me :) I've read a lot of people's blogs but you are writing very practical/down-to-earth stuff that "in theory" seems very manageable. I have to struggle with finding time since I'm working outside the home and it seems I'm overwhelmed with things to do by the time I get home, but you've motivated me to take some baby steps to get our family on a healthier track. That seems to be my biggest struggle, finding the time to plan and then prepare those healthier options, without running out of time for family time when Clay and I get home. But we're working on it! Just wanted you to know your posts were helping someone!

    Hope you're all doing well!

    Thanks! I'm so glad it's helping you. I going to try and put more recipes on here this week. Things that are quick, easy and healthy, so be watching for those. I have so much respect for moms who work all day and then come home to their non-paying jobs. I hope I can help you more in the future!
    Thanks for the comment! Kim
