Count your Blessings Tuesday #29

Today I am grateful for:

• C.  He's awesome.  'Nuff said.
• 28 days of working out *almost* every day!
• medicine... I am sure that without it, this would def. be worst.
• a little boy who reminds me every day to just let go and have fun and "go crazy, go crazy!"
• two more days until freedom  Spring Break
• the excitement a photo shoot brings (can't wait 'till Saturday!)

Ever have those moments when...

you have so many thoughts and random things to write about but you sit at the computer and just stare at the screen waiting for the words to come out and they never do?  Yeah, me too.

Date Night @ the Aquarium

For our four year anniversary we went to the National Aquarium in Baltimore for their quarterly Date Night.

Playing around at Urban Outfitters... they really should clean that mirror.

This screams BALTIMORE.  See how hot my hubby looked?  That's a paisley tie!

The dress I'm wearing is really cute but I had to cover it up with a cardigan... COLD!  Like the headband?

Last anniversary we took a photo like this one at the harbor.... I like this one too ;)

In case you didn't know where we were at...

This is in front of the aquarium... I love these two photos... same exact spot but different focusing points... water...

branch with buds..... : )   It appears as if by magic... or just my camera.

The view from the aquarium :)

The music at the aquarium.... he was awesome!

Great company... T and A.  They were pretending they got engaged.... only T wishes it wasn't pretend.

This is A.... he's like this... all the time (with or without alcohol).

C checking out the exhibits... as you can tell, I was checking out the "exhibit"

Lovely view of the harbor with C :)

This is how empty the aquarium seemed to us... it seemed like we were the only ones there and it was AWESOME!

My favorite fish :)

Fitness Thursday #12

My streak of exercising every day had a minor lapse (two days) because my in-laws came in town and were housed in the basement along with the elliptical and all the workout DVDs.  I resumed on Sunday so as of yesterday I've exercised for 24 days.  Not so bad considering there were three days where I really didn't want to exercise.

So I think I want a tattoo...

I was playing around on photoshop tonight and came up with something I would want to tattoo on my back... right shoulder area.  What do you think?

It's just a concept drawing using two images I really liked.  the anchor represents my dad and the flowers and butterflies my mom... M for my name and maiden name.  The water is "Puerto Rico."  The idea behind the tattoo is that they're what keep me grounded.

Fitness Thursday #11

After tonight, it will be 20 days that I have been working out every day!  Despite my injury Tuesday, I have brushed myself off and continued working out-- albeit a bit less rigorously.  I put The Shred back on the shelf and switched it for the Biggest Loser Jump Start DVD which has 10 minute workouts that won't kill me.  

This is the longest I've been able to work out every day without finding an excuse to not exercise : )
