Road Trip to Indy, Part 2

Saturday morning everyone came in our room and hung out for a little bit... This is Ike...

and Sarah and Jackie... We finally made it to the hotel lobby...... Shannon showing Tracy directions....something must've been funny. ha! Julie and Ike.. And finally to get some food at a yummy Mexican place! haha Sarah..... Somehow I got drug into doing this too..... Our friend Sara fractured her ankle the day before coming to Indy (boo!) so poor thing had to get a wheel chair just so she could go around with us! But hey, it worked and she had a good driver too! ha! Walking the streets of downtown Indy! Friends! Kelly, Julie, Jackie, Ike, Tracy, Shannon, Sara, and Sarah


Walking towards the Canal District! But had to stop for a photo op first!

Sarah found her a bright yellow truck that matched her outfit that day! lol LOVE this area!! Such a neat place! Can't wait to go back and walk it again! This was the coolest thing!! Sooo pretty!! hahaha Sorry Ike...I had to post this... Ike, Sarah, and Jackie talking to... Julie, Tracy, and Shannon Sarah and I....there is a long story behind this. But we were waiting to meet up with my friend Jen and they said we were shaking a leg to catch a ride. LOL Look! It's Sarah's idea of a walrus! bahahaha Trust me, we had a GREAT time with that one!!! :) Ahhh!! Help! LOL Then we decided to have a paper boat race on the Canal! haha So Shannon and Ike made paper boats...well they were more like a barge, but its all good, it served its purpose well! ;) I think Ike is cheating.......

So he could say that his boat won! LOL

Pretty sure that hat just jumped right on Sarah's head. :)

I can't believe Sara trusted Ike and Shannon to pull her up the big hill with the canal not too far away. LOL She's a brave girl! :) Sorry Sara...this is a Tow Away Zone...you can't park here! LOL LOL! Some how this really made me laugh... Monument Circle! Yes, sometimes I get made fun of for being short! Especially when you can walk through/under signs! LOL Tracy and Sarah lol Julie loves making serious faces! :) Fun times at the mall... My friend Shannon and I Apparently Ike really wanted to take this picture....LOL



There goes Julie making those serious faces again. LOL But apparently Ike is enjoying it?! LOL


Ahh there we go....cute picture!




At the end of this trip, on the way home, I was also able to visit with my sister and her family! Yay!! But unfortunately we didn't get any pics. Boo! Love you sissy! Glad I got to see you!

Stay tuned for Part 3!

IBC Choir and Chorale! Friends! Sara and Sarah! Hanging out and talking to friends after the concert! Tracy, Jeremy, Rachel, and Shannon! Julie hanging out lookin 'purty'!

It's 'that' Feeling: Four Week Challenge

I'm happy to report that I'm back on track again!! These past couple of weeks have been great!! Back to eating good and working out on a regular schedule again...which makes me a super happy girl! I always miss the nights that I am "too busy" to work out. But, I'm feeling good and can't wait to see what the next few weeks have to offer!

Beginning tomorrow-I'm starting a Four Week Challenge! In four short weeks I'll be leaving on a jet plane out of the country, which I'm super excited about! So between now and then I've set some small goals for myself and hoping to achieve them! Someone PLEASE help keep me accountable!!

I'm excited and hoping that this will break the plateau! So ready to get past this point!

Last week, Sarah and I were able to meet up with our friend Melissa...she has recently lost over 60 pounds and she looks AWESOME!!! Melissa, if you are reading this, I am sooo proud of you! You have been such an inspiration to me!

One thing to remember is...if you fail today, start again TODAY! Don't wait for tomorrow!

Hope yall have a wonderful week!

Until next time...

Catching Up

It seems like I'm always running around 24 hours a day. I honestly do have lots of pictures to share...so stayed tuned! They're coming soon!

Since the last post, I went out of town to Indy with friends, lots of things going on with Trendy Bliss, and some updates on "It's 'that' feeling".
