Lemmon Crinkle Cookies




The recipe here LINK

So I made these cookies for my husband. I know I said no sugar, but I had to try these. They are great, a light lemon flavor, they are a great Spring/Summer cookie. Easy recipe.

Game night Treats!

The Recipe HERE LINK

These cookies are fantastic! Not healthy at all but yummy! Another Pinterest recipe that has turned out great!!! They are time consuming, it took me about half hour just to make the cookies into little balls, they are soft and really good though, so worth the 45 minutes of work! (Hey standing is burning calories that I am going to gain when I eat these cookies right?)

Happy Valentines Day - END OF 30 DAYS!

Its been a quick 30 days! But I am very happy with the results. I have lost 5 pounds. Its not 10 but, I think that my results are proof that I have worked my butt off. I think back now, and never should have ate that chips and dip at the super bowl party, or I never should have ate those brownies that I made. I am sure I could have lost a couple more pounds, but right now I feel good with my results and I can see a difference. My Before and after workout is a BIG difference! 30 days ago I just about died doing push ups, now I can do 23 in 50 seconds! It has not been easy. Waking up at 5:35 four times a week is hard, walking outside and getting into a freezing cold car that does not warm up by the time I get to the gym, is harder! But when I get to the gym, I know that this is the place I should be at. I don't ever regret going to the gym.

My 30 DAY CHALLENGE EXERCISES :

Squat Jumps - Then: 22 - Now: 27 ( +5 )
Push Ups - Then: 3 - Now: 23 ( +20 )
Push Up Jumps - Then: 8 - Now: 13 (+5 )
High Knees - Then: 74 - Now: 110 ( +36 )
Lunges - Then: 12 - Now: 22 ( + 10 )
Sit Ups - Then: 15 - Now: 36 ( +21 )


Now for the before and after pictures . . .

Before
After ( look at my arms ) haha! I finally have guns :)
My real After Picture!


My new goal is to be a size 6 by May 25th. My sister is getting married and I will not be the fat sister again! My new goal, is one that I have not been able to be at since I was 18 years old. I know that its going to be really really hard. But I am going to do it. I want to be in a cute swimsuit by summer and not feel fat! I am so ready to feel good about my body! I am in a size 10 now, last week I tried on a 9 and they fit! So 3-4 sizes to go!!! Harder workouts and better eating!

Craft Night!

February craft night was great! Now I am finally posting my pics of my finished projects!

This is my Hair Extension Holder. I used an oatmeal canester. I glued fabric and then ribbon around the canester. Its a little to short, but its better then having hair lay all over my bathroom!


My next was a Chore Jar for my 2 year old and 5 year old boys. I made each kid have different color stick, yellow was chores that they both can do. I added lots of different chores that are age appropriate for them. So far my boys are really liking it. The first couple days they kept wanting to have more chores, so they could pull more sticks! haha!



My last project was my "Rainy Day" Can. I have TONS of activities for my boys to do while we are stuck inside the house. They are not just watching TV. Most of them are things that get my boys up moving and active!
