October 2015 in review :)

Happy October/Fall people :) bring on the cooler weather please :) We have had the hottest summer :S I have been melting :S So, thankfully in the beginning of this month it finally cold off a little just to warm back up :S But, hopefully we get the new A/C before next summer :S We've had a couple quotes but nothing is a guarantee yet :S We need something though :S

This month like all other months has been another CRAZY busy month and I love it :) I am thankful that I still  get to live a GREAT life :)  Brandon is making moves as well in his job and takes GREAT care of us :) The new active life has totally grown on me :) no complaints over here :)

We started off this month all cool and collective :) We got to see David Paul and spend the evening with his parents :) He is SO adorable :)


Then on 10/4/15, that Sunday I went to brunch with a GREAT group of girlfriends :) We hit up Citrus City Grill again :) I REALLY like this place and its bottomless mimosas :) It was a GREAT trip :) something that we need to try to do at least quarterly :) especially because not everyone was able to join us :S 2 people were missed :S

Citrus City Grill :) Bottomless mimosa Brunch:)

Then the following weekend didn't do much but work around the house :S Had a couple of medical appointments just for check ups that went from monthly to every 3 months to every 6 months and now are on a  as needed bassi, which is GREAT  :) means I'm just improving :)  Everything came back fine thankfully :)


Ive stayed on my workout grind :) I actually enjoy staying active it gives me something to do :) I have been apart of this great workout group that has totally made me accountable :) the group ended SO I decided to make a new free group to continue to hold myself accountable :) This month I have consistently done my elliptical, done 80 jumping jacks 20 push ups 40 crunches and 50 squats a minimum of 10000,  and I've walked for 60+ minutes :) Anyone and everyone is encouraged to join the group :) its a free group that simply holds you accountable :) It has so been doing its job :) my weight is anywhere from 135-140 I would LOVE to keep it around 135 but for some reason it won't stay there :S But, I'm still grateful that I have been able to stay around 140 :) Brandon took me shopping for my birthday and I went down a size :) I was SO excited :) I bought a regular pair of american eagle jeans not stretch in a size 4 :) I was SO juiced :)
my little birthday shopping spree :) #BEYONDBLESSED:)

then we didn't do much until my birthday :) We were able to go spend the weekend down in San Diego :) I love our timeshare :) it was a great investment so long ago :) So we spent the weekend in San Diego :) on the way down we stopped at the safari park.  We had tickets that I bought through groupon that we had to use before December..  I bought the tickets in the summer because we were originally supposed to go with a couple of friends for Isaiahs birthday, but life got in the way and we didn't want the tickets to go to waste.  We thankfully had a good time :) and went to a couple of breweries :) it was my birthday but we had to do what he loves to do especially if we were in San Diego :) Then, we hung out with friends on Saturday night and got ready for the football game on Sunday :) We had a GREAT time with our friends :) Then, it was football sunday :) we had a GREAT time and a GREAT game :) We WON :) it was perfect :) Then home we went and then I needed a day to recover from the fun filled weekend SO i relaxed on monday and got back to my grind on Tuesday :)
We don't get out much :S he was geard up for the zoo, out of all places :S he looked fresher then me :)
Perfect way to celebrate my birthday was with my friends making me these Raider cupcakes :) they were delicious :) Thank you tons Michelle & Ashley
Group photo :) we had a BLAST :) this is a new tradition for all of us :) this is our 3rd year in a row, and some peoples 2nd year with us and other peoples 1st year :) Either way it doesn't matter it is a new tradition :) RF4L:) We all look HOT :)
Sweat shot :) Brandon did a good job with the tickets :) Well worth it :)

 
like all the other months this month was also filled with date nights :) we LOVE Johnny Carinos and Black Angus :) I LOVE my cowboy cookie and thoroughly enjoyed it for my birthday :) He is SO lucky that I had a coupon :) he LOVES Black Angus with a passion :)

Fort Irwin Training Center 

Then on Friday 10/30/15 we got to see  my brother :) we were all SO excited : we drove to Fort Irwin :S 2.5 hours away :S #wellworthit:)) he was out here for training because he is going to be deployed next year :S we are not looking forward to that at all :S I wonder how we are going to hold it :S we had to handle it when he got based in Texas and then his 1st deployment to Germany for 2 3 month deployments :S which was not cool at all :S being out of state is one thing but then being out of the country is another :S but, now he will be gone for 9 months :S and he has a family :S So they have to all stay strong while he is gone :) 
Family Shot :)
Couple Shot 

Then we got to go to a family outing on halloween it was our Aunts birthday :) So we went to a nice place in long beach called The reef on the water :) It was sweet :)

Then that evening my cousin and BFF treated me to dinner for my birthday :) We had a good time :) and plan to do this quarterly as well :) 

So, the start of our fall has been GREAT & will only get better and better :) I truly live a wonderful life :) my fall calendar is getting full as well so, if you have anything going on let me know so I can plug it in my calendar :) I'm glad ise finally starting to get cooler :) we need it cause this heat was a beast :S 

Everyone stay blessed :)
