just for kicks

Wanted to start off this email saying that my heart is heavy and I’m praying for the lives that were lost in Afghanistan yesterday and their families.  I can’t stop thinking about our military members, allies, and Afghan citizens who are affected and in danger. God bless our troops and thank you to everyone who has served and…

Hi friends! I hope you’re having a good week and hanging in there despite the heavy events in the world. A friendly reminder to unplug when you need to and do the things that help you to feel good, destress, and recharge. We’ll definitely be doing a lot of that this weekend. I’m looking forward…

Hi hi! Happy Friday and three cheers for the weekend. How did the week go? Ours was a good one and a bit of a blur. The kids are pumped to be back in school but I’ve gotta say, it was pretty nice sleeping late and staying in our pajamas while it lasted. 🙂 Even…

Hi hi! Happy Friday! What do you have going on this weekend? My MIL is got here yesterday and is staying with us, and we’re so excited and happy to have her here. It’s been way too long since we’ve been able to see Tom’s side of the family – he’s been able to visit…

Hi friends! Happy Monday! How was the weekend? I hope you had a great one. I got hit with food poisoning or a 24-hr stomach bug towards the end of last week (the dang worst) but was thankfully on the ups by Saturday afternoon. The rest of the weekend was low-key but relaxing and nice.…

Hi friends! Happy Friday and happy 4th of July weekend. I hope you have a fun and lovely weekend ahead! We have plans with my family (swimming and fireworks), and I’m teaching a live Tabata Core class tomorrow morning at 8am PST. If you’d like to join in the fun, let me know in the…
