Happy Halloween Eve!! This holiday is one I look forward to and dread every single year. I love a reason to dress up, but I hate figuring out what I’m going to be. (I like the DIY route for costumes, so half the time they turn out slightly terrible.) This year, though, I feel differently….

Is it just me or is this week crawling by? I just want this weekend to get here so I can dress ridiculously and go on adventures because of Halloween.

15 Ways to Relax After a Long Day
Happy Friday!! It’s been a busy week for me, so I am more than happy for this weekend to begin. How will I start the glorious, magnificent days off? Probably being super lazy and not doing a single productive thing. Aww yiss. After having some especially long days recently, and hearing how others cope with…
So Fit & So Lean Workout + My Favorite Things
As promised on Instagram Monday, I have a workout to share today! I decided to create this full body dumbbell circuit after wanting/needing a change of pace. They say, “Never miss a Monday workout,” and that was one of my goals for my new weekly workout schedule, so a new routine was exactly what I…
Coconut Almond Baked Oatmeal
Weekends are the perfect time to make delicious breakfasts, whether it’s pancakes, eggs and bacon, or leftover cold pizza…I mean…what?

Shoulder Workout + My Favorite Workout Shirt Sayings
As I’ve been doing my new workout schedule #likeaboss, I’ve been revisiting circuit workouts I created ages ago. Some of my favorites are those using dumbbells (like the full body Dumbbell Circuit and Upper Body Dumbbell Circuit). I realized something last week though; I’ve never created a workout routine for quite possibly my favorite area…
Celebrating Our Last Dating Anniversary
Earlier this week, Matt and I reached the six-year mark of dating. Woohoo! We still like each other! It was bittersweet because after this anniversary, we have to start over at one since we’re kind of engaged right now. I say bittersweet because it takes hard work to rack up those years! Regardless, I’m pumped…
My Favorite Things + Booty Challenge Recap
Happy Hump Day! Keeping in theme with this title, I figured I should share a little recap of my 30-Day Booty Challenge that I finished recently. I’ve created several workout challenges in the past—pushup, plank, squat, and an easy full body one—but I can safely say this booty challenge has been my favorite. It never…
30 Easy Random Acts of Kindness
Happy Do Something Nice Day! This holiday lands on October 5th every year, and considering I just discovered this was a thing, I wanted to share a bunch of little ways you can be kind to others today (or any day). And what better way to be nice to people than do one or many…
