Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day, y'all! It's so easy to forget the sacrifices being made all around the world so the least we can do as a nation is take a few days out of the year to remember those whose bravery protects us. So, today especially, thank you to all service members who made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you not only to those who died in battle but those who have passed away after their time on the battlefield. I can't imagine making such a big commitment to your country.

Last week had some ups and downs but I've got a pretty good attitude about it. I started off great as usual but also as usual, things got rocky towards the end. I did meet all of my fitness and water goals, though. I have a whole new set of goals this week and I've loaded my fridge with healthier foods and purged the temptations. It's all about WHAT I'm eating so if I eat too much broccoli, I won't feel nearly as guilty about it.

Since it's Memorial Day, I wanted to give a shout out to the grill. I don't really have a recipe to share but I wanted to personally give my parents a shout out and huge thank you for buying me a grill! I've been wanting one and I'm so glad they sent one my way because we have already used it several times. I love how quick the process of grilling is and how you can pretty much grill anything. I have all kinds of ideas and plan to make veggies and pizza and anything else I can get my hands on. In addition to the pictures, we've also made burgers a couple times. Ian and I are fighting over who gets to do the grilling. So, have fun today and thanks again to my folks for the grill.

Have a great week, y'all!
