How to Come Out and Play this Fall #CLIFKid


Kids1_650
Summer is winding down and so are the temperatures... We love to take the kids outside so they can burn off their overabundance of energy. I've also been trying to fuel my kids with better snacks, such as the CLIF Kid Zbar
®, which are made with organic ingredients, have no high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors or synthetic preservatives. These bars have important nutrients for active kids, which I LOVE!

To get the kids outside, we will sometimes plan a quick and simple picnic dinner. I'll make a long sandwich and cut it up into small slices we can all share, pack fruit, cheese and crackers. Then, I'll let the kids play frisbee, football or they'll just roam around and explore the outdoors. They're usually ready for a snack before we head home and lately we've been packing along the CLIF Kid Zbars. These also make great snacks for school snack time or before their cross country meets!

CLIF Kid makes nutritious snacks from organic ingredients that are specially-crafted for kids’ developing taste buds and active lives. CLIF Kid snacks feature nutrients that active kids need in flavors they crave, such as Chocolate Chip and Iced Oatmeal Cookie.

Balanced and active play lays the foundation for a skilled, healthy, resilient and successful society.

Play is disappearing at home, in school and in communities. 70% of moms played outside when they were kids, 31% of their kids play outside today. My kids would rather sit on the couch and play on their electronics, but I encourage them to get outside to play.

My Invisalign Journey (Trays 9-15) and Progression Photos

Today I am going to share a little more about My Invisalign Journey with you. Back in May, I shared my first Invisalign post HERE and talked about my first 8 trays with Invisalign. Today I am going to share some information and progression photos for Trays 9-15. And, no, I am not done with Invisalign yet. After your first round of trays (I had 15 trays), they start revision trays. Unfortunately, I found out I have 18 revision trays... I am currently on tray 3 of those. I will continue to share updates as my progress continues. I talk about why I went with Invisalign and what the entire process was like in my first post (see link below). I am not going to repeat it all in this post, but I will share my progression photos with you. If you have any questions, be sure to let me know in the comments.

I haven't really set any specific goals for myself with half marathons, except to try to PR. However, I haven't PR'ed my 2:06 time in a couple years! After training ...

Y'all! I DID IT! 2016 Chicago Marathon Recap!!!

I am really excited to share this post with all of you today. I have been wanting to run a marathon for a really, really, REALLY long time. I was too afraid to do it, I was afraid I would fail. I started out running in 2009 after I had my daughter and signed up to run 500 miles in one year with friends I met on  Babycenter   I started out walking and running... but, I did it! I completed 500 miles in 2009. My first 5K was at our local zoo and then I branched out and did a Halloween 10K. After that, I signed up for my first half marathon here in St. Louis and my second half marathon was the Wine & Dine at Disney... My first half marathon time was 2:35 and my best has been 2:04 and a HUGE dream/goal of mine is to complete one in under 2:00 hours. But... first I toyed around with the idea of running a marathon.  All  of my running friends kept telling me to JUST DO IT. That I'd do just fine. But, I was sacred.... Finally, 7 years later I have RAN MY FIRST MARATHON! ...
