June Jazz

 Nick & Justin came home for 10 days to play🙌🏼
Loved bowling, movies, food, church, games & fun with them💙
Mom & Dad won bowling😂
only because of a terrible, un-oiled bowling lane🎳
cut J's hair, Nick's thoughtful father's day gift,
grand-doggie, and soon to be mom & dad🥳
finally warm enough to swim in mid June, going to miss running with my Tiff who is moving in July, feeling all the feels, Corinne's countless insights & info and lots of thought work & journaling is helping me take this excess weight off for the last time ~ filled with love, compassion, commitment, dedication and courage, mowing the lawn...in the dark at times🌟
Sarah made Brandon a ho-ho cake for his birthday, love this shirt I saw a cute lady at the gym wearing, hotel toilet paper roll but like our cute Diane's better, sharing our purple flowers, redoing our neighbor's home
Brandon & Sarah's 3rd Anniversary in Disney Land🐭

Corinne & No BS Bootcamp

I have always admired Corinne Crabtree.  She lost 100 pounds 15+ years ago and has created a multi-million dollar business helping other women do the same.  I had the opportunity to meet her a couple years ago at a Fearless Event where she graciously shared her insights and expertise with those of us there.  She took time to do selfies and even did a teaching tidbit tuesday with me.  And then when I saw her again, in November at another Fearless event, she did that all with me again.  Corinne is filled with love, compassion, and generosity.

The opportunity came for me to be in her Advanced Weightloss Certification this summer.  And since she always overdelivers, I get to be in her No BS business and weightloss programs for 3 months, and got to attend her business bootcamp in Nashville.  I've learned more in the past few weeks about weightloss that is truly helping me.  I've stopped binging.  I dropped 7 pounds in June, and on my way to my 123 or 20/35 Impeccable Size by the end of the summer!  Hoping to work part time for Corinne too.  Fun to take photos on stage, and going to be there someday teaching/coaching💙

Mother's Day, Surprises & Trauma Informed Retreat

Steve came and picked me up from airport and we surprised mom when I showed up to lunch with them.  So fun to go to church with her and dad as well.
Nick & Justin sent me a cute Mother's Day text with a picture of them at church💙
Spent the week with the incredible Candice Toone and crew at a Trauma Informed Retreat in Park City.  I also got to teach a class on loving yourself💗. Loved the amazing people I was blessed to learn from and spend the week with.
Nutmeg got to stay again with Michaela and her doggie family.  She got a little nervous before and chewed up the trauma book I was reading😬
 Went to a wedding reception with Mom & Dad before flying home and got to surprise and see my Vicki!  She was my roommate in college for a year, my dad's cousin, and one of my favorite people.  Haven't seen her for a very long time and it was a tender and beautiful reunion!
Got to surprise Abbie & Tyler at another wedding reception, flowers when I got home from all the kids, Sarah & Canela, Trusty's new grandbaby, Nutty's golf-cart ride and 7th birthday
Kurt, Kristen and Nick's new favorite thing to do - mountain biking🚴🏼‍♂️

Landed and we're off - packed a lot into 2 days!
So fun to see Marilee & Curtis Garner on their mission.  We met them for dinner and enjoyed catching up and hearing of all the awesome things they are doing.
Thank you Trusty's for an amazing DC experience ~ my first one💙

Cute little family on my walk with Aly, Mom & Vicki (she doesn't know I'm surprising her next week), Nutmeg got to stay at a new place - Michaelas.  She was a little nervous but has new doggy friends.  When she got home she stood by the tree to watch the squirrels🐕
