Remember me?

Hello there blogger friends!! I know I know, I haven’t posted in quite some time and I even almost started a new blog BUT I have a good excuse why I have been MIA. We are expecting!!

 

I decided not to document my entire pregnancy, mainly because this is our first and everything was so new and a little overwhelming for me and I’ll admit it,  I have not been that concerned about healthy eating and fitness. Now I want to start off by letting you all know that I am not back quite yet I still have 6 weeks until our little man is here but I wanted to let everyone know that I will be returning once we all get settled in. I have plenty of goals that I want to reach in 2016  and I am counting down the days where I can really focus on them. Of course little man will take up the majority of my time but he is the main reason for my wanting to get back into shape. I want to be a good influence on him. I want him to grow up knowing that healthy living is a way of life. I want him to want to eat his veggies and to want to go outside and play. There is so much that I want for this little boy and it is all going to start from day 1. Healthy living in our household will be the way of life. I do not want to be the family that eats fast food every night and then comes home and sits on the couch and watches TV. So over the next 6 weeks I am going to be planning out recipes, workouts and really just getting everything ready so when it is time I am ready to move forward 110%. I hope you are all excited and will join me on this journey (again). I know that this time it will be a lot different because I will be a first time mom but I am so ready for it. Feel free to message me things that you want to see on the blog or if you want me to try something out.

Live happy and healthy,

Mel

Girls Night Out

Today around lunch time my sister n law texted me to see if I would want to meet her downtown for sushi. Neither one of our husbands like sushi so I was totally down because we never get it.

 

 

So we met downtown after work ready to chow down.

 

We started out with a few things and I will worn you, you better grab a snack because this might make you a little hungry.

 

This was the tuna sunshine.

 

Now I can't remember what this is called but it was probably my favorite.

 

Mel had mussels, I'm allergic so I stayed away but don't they look tasty?

 

We then decided to share two rolls and oh my goodness they were delicious.

I have to say the one that Mel chose was the best and the prettiest. Can you guess which one? It made me think of Christmas.

 

Now to our favorite part of the night.

 

Poppington's Gourmet Popcorn is local store downtown and let's just say their popcorn is the best thing I have ever had and I don't even like popcorn that much. Plus the owners are so nice. I talked to them tonight and I am going to do an interview with them after the New Year to share. So get ready!

 

They literally have any flavor you could imagine.

 

The great thing is they have already decorated for Christmas. When you walk in it is just magical. I mean really.... Christmas lights and popcorn...what else do you need?

 

The smell is just insane and they will let you try any flavor you like. Now since I am on my 21 day challenge I only tried a kernel or two :)

 

What's a popcorn shop without your typical popcorn popper?

 

I clearly know what I am getting family and friends this year for Christmas.

We had a blast just looking around and checking out how many flavors they really do make. But I will wait till the interview to share all of that.

 

Let's just say "Girl's Night Out" was a complete success.

 

Now tomorrow I am going to be sharing my "design" post. The hubby and I are about to close on our first home and you know that I already have ideas. We are SO excited!!!

 

Happy Thursday Blogger Friends
