Happy Fridayyy!!  

Currently I've been...
Eating:
We had Chick-Fil-A for the first time in a while a few weeks back, and I realized that it is one of my favorite treat meals! I get the chicken sandwich with fries and a diet Coke...mmmm...so good! I could probably eat this every weekend.

I've also been loving Marshmallow fruity pebbles for my post workout meal. I'm SO glad I got this cereal! I've had some fails before, but this one is on my faves list for sure. Top 5 cereals: Honey Bunches of Oats Apple Cinnamon, Honey Bunches of Oats Cinnamon Clusters, Honeycomb, Marshmallow Fruity Pebbles, and Marshmallow Froot Loops. You're welcome.
Now that's it's warmer out, I'm loving our Sunday grilled chicken thighs with corn and a salad on the side. I marinate the chicken in vinegar, soy sauce, oil, and garlic-it is SO good. Definitely one of my favorite meals.
Enjoying:
Hammock time! This is what I wait all winter for. It's sooo nice and relaxing laying on the hammock on a pretty Spring day, with a soft, gentle breeze rustling the leaves, and the birds chirping...ahh I just love it.
Doing:
As ya'll know, I'm loving doing my workouts outside lately. I also love that I'm not following a plan and I can just play around and have fun! Fitness doesn't always have to be so serious!

Excited about:
New MuscleTech goodies to try! Can't wait to use the casein protein for my nighttime sludge, and the other products are to put in your coffee, which is pretty cool. I'm not a fan of flavored coffee, but I'll still give them a try.

Watching:
I'm not a big YouTube vlog watcher, but I recently came across Rachel Elizabeth's YouTube page and have been enjoying her videos. I mostly like that she has a strong faith-it's refreshing to see someone who's bold and unashamed about their faith.

Loving:
I recently came across this foundation that I'm loving, besides the fact that now that I've gotten a little sun it's too light! I have the hardest time picking the right foundation color for my face. It's one of the longest lasting foundations I've tried from the drugstore.

Buying:
I went on a little mini Meijer haul for a few things the other day, and a bunch of stuff was on sale! I got some curl defining cream, OGX coconut water hydration spray(I'll definitely be needing this for my beach trip), neon pink nail polish(I'm all about bright, bold colors for summer), a loofah, some Wet 'N Wild mascara, blush, and bronzer, and a hair mask(also for my trip since my hair will be taking a beating at the ocean!).

Listening To:
This new song from For King & Country. 

Reading:
I've been a fan of The Bachelor for a LONG time, and I always liked Emily from the show, so I picked this book up a few days ago. I'm usually not that into non-fiction books, especially biography type books, but I wanted something different!

Looking forward to:
This. 
Three. more. days.

  1. Thanks for sharing! I always enjoy these favorites round-ups. Please let us know how you like the OGX spray. I'm curious about it. I saw someone else recommend it as a light fragrance recently (I don't remember which scent in particular, but it made me want to go out and buy it!) Have a safe and wonderful time at the beach!!! Woo hoo!! :)

Putting My Heart Out There

Hey guys. Here's where we're at right now: Matt finished his radiation treatments last week. Did they help? I don't know. He's sleeping a lot more. Having trouble chewing and swallowing. Not eating much. Not talking much, at least not in full sentences. It's just been a slow, steady decline for the last few months. I think it was really too late for radiation....But who knows, maybe it is delaying things. We went in last Tuesday for his infusion and talked with his neuro-oncologist about everything that we've been seeing with Matt, and he decided that we're at the point now where we should discontinue treatments...I feel like it's the right decision, even though it breaks my heart knowing that there is nothing else we can do. But I feel like we've done everything. All the supplements, the diet, the chemo, the radiation... Matt has fought hard. He never gave up hope. He kept the faith. He never complained through any of this. Not once did I hea
People always said That time would heal the pain But how can that be When mine still remains? The tears still fall At just the thought of you So I know that what they say Just can't be true As the years go by I miss you so much still  No matter how much time passes I know I always will How are you not here To ease my hurting heart? Never could I have imagined We would ever be apart My world has been shattered A piece of me is gone And all I can do is pray For strength to live on I know that one day soon I will see you again I just have to try to suffer through And make it until then

Why?

Why? Why do I care so much?  Why do I make sure they brush their teeth at night so that they don't get cavities? Why do I spend my own money to buy them clothes, toys and decorate their rooms, among other things?  Why do I do 5,000 loads of laundry a week to make sure they have clothes to wear to school? Why do I make sure they go to church on Sundays so that they'll be raised to know about Jesus? Why do I try to give them chores and responsibilities so that they will turn out to be decent human beings? Why do I read them a bedtime story at night, even when I'm exhausted? Why do I clean up after them constantly and cook for them and try to always have healthy snacks and food on hand? Why do I go to their sports games and practices, just to feel like the odd man out standing there awkwardly with their bio mom? Why do I give 100% of myself and make so many sacrifices for children I didn't birth? Only to be insulted and told hurtful things? To be made to feel like I'm
