April 2016

So the last 2 months have gone bye in a blink of on eye :S this summer should be interesting.  

It is the 1st of April so happy fools day :) it is this characters birthday :) He played the ultimate joke on us during his  birth :S was not fun, he had his heard totalyl drawn back in the birth canal and was born with a dropped long so he had to spend his first few days of life in the NICU :S Then, he had his first surgery at about a month old because he wasn't gaining any wait something to do with the flap that goes from your esophagus to your intestines.  He is the healthy and such a vibrant kid now :) he just had a rough start to life :S 
Happy 2nd Birthday Joseph Manuel Ybanez Jr.  
I love that he is a junior :)

Then as the month carried on we got invited to a wonderful wedding in  Fallbrook and had a BLAST. We made a weekend out of it and stayed at Pala Casino :) We like to get away.  We had a GREAT time and were able to see a lot of friends.
Congratulations Steven & Megan
Mr. & Mrs. Davis 

Then that week I got another hike in :) I have been trying to stay really active so Im hoping i will get more hikes in now that its warming up.  I went hiking in the 90+ degree weather :S Not cool :S but at least I got a good sweat in :) Hike # 4 out of 52.  Still need to do a lot more but Brandons back has been messed up since last month so IDK if ill get to 52 but ill do as much as possible :) 
This girl right her is a GREAT motivator :) I LOVE hiking with her :) we always explore new places :) Schabarum Regional Park #PuenteHills#6+miles #Wildcatloop:)

Then we have this BITCH right here LOL Ever since we had to part ways with the man in February we spoil her :) This month when we went to the wedding was her first night alone :S We usually take her to my parents house so she can be with someone, but not this time :S It was SO hard leaving her but we knew she would be ok since we were only going to be gone 1 night :) She did fine thankfully :) she does everything with us these days though even run errands :) 
This is us out & about running errands :) 

I got hide #5 in with Brandon :) Thankfully his back has been feeling better :) So I had us go to the La Sierra Loop in Chino hills I LOVE that hike :) it is SO doable :) we even ran a little of it :) for some reason these days I've been a little motivated to try to run :) I still feel EXTREMELY ACKWARD and it is SO uncomfortable :S but I still do it :) I forgot to snap a picture :S my BAD :(


my parents sold there boat :S it is SO bitter sweet :S that boat has SO many wonderful memories :)

This month is my dads birthday SO all the family got together to celebrate his birthday :) 

This month is also Dominick Burrells birthday :) Happy Birthday Dom :) 
So we went to this new steak house :) Brandon has another favorite now :)

We ended our month by making our first river trip this year and attending the River Run :) We didn't get in the water but had an awesome time with this couple :) All we did this weekend and having them go with us was kind of our early wedding gift :) $RANDOM 
in 2 months exactly they are tying the knot and will be 
Mr. and Mrs.Davis #excitingtime
We also went to Salt Grass restaurant while we were out there :) I totally had Deia Schumann on my mind :) this is SO her spot :) and of course we went because Brandon had to get a steak in him while on vacation :) 
This is always a must when we go to Laughlin and I so indulged and LOVED it :) 
I felt like I deserved it :) I worked hard in April :)
The rest of the time we were there I made semi-healthy choices :)
So, even though my mini vacuum resulted in a little weight gain I'm ok with it :) I will work it off in May LOL :)

Thus is my month in review.  I started off on my elliptical a little under 500 calories every session and ended here :) I worked my way back up :) I also started drinking a glean of water s day :S seems like a lot nut it isn't just helps :) makes you feel foul and gives me energy :) I drink lemon water made with my freshly squeezed lemons :)
My free workout accountability group that I created is working fabulously :) I hold myself accountable every day for my workouts :) #STAYACTIVEPEOPLE:)
if interested in the group hit me up :)  all you have to do it hold yourself accountable for some level of activity everyday :) 



It is now May, I can't even believe it :S 4 months have gone by in this year already :S CRAZY :S
we are still trying to figure all of what we are going to do this summer :) I just know Laughlin, Parker and Havasu are in our future for sure :)still no set dates yet :S  Especially since we went to Laughlin by ourselves last year and SO did it :) I am SO proud of myself :) Im getting back into the swing of things slowly but surely :) 

The end of April was semi-busy and I just foresee it getting busier :) In a good way I believe :)

Stay blessed and active people :) I am SO looking forward to summer 2016  :) In the month of May I plan on being extremely active and making all healthy choices :) I am determined and staying after it :)
