Too fit to quit!

Brandon and I have started P90x! We got digital copies of it from my sister and brother in law and we started this week... I CANNOT move! I have NEVER been SO SORE IN MY LIFE! (and I played sports in high school!) We started out with Plyometrics and that destroyed me! I'm walking like I'm 8 months pregnant! The guys I work with have been making fun of me all day! I can't WAIT for the yoga day! I'm mostly proud of how determined Brandon has been about it! He wakes me up every morning at 7 (some-day's that's a suicide mission) and gets me motivated to do it. I wish I could say that it's making me feel awesome because right now it just makes me hurt more than anything ha ha ha, but I'm sure that will change! Wish us luck! (we're taking before and after shots so stay tuned for those in 88 more days... well...  if we did good enough we'll post them) 

also, I HAVE STARTED STUDYING YOGA! I love it! I started going to classes like 6 months ago and now I do it every morning after p90x or at night when I get home from work! It's SUCH a nice break! Yoga is meant for relaxation, meditation, strengthening the muscles you never use and correcting posture (which are ALL good things for me). I have yoga on my wii fit but I'm at the "instructor" level so i'm looking for a new wii yoga game thats a little more challenging. I love going to the classes at Golds Gym but we froze our accounts for 90 days so I can't go to them now :( but now that forces me to really study it on my own and create my own routines and work outs. LOVE IT! you all should try it!

ONE YEAR!!

Brandon & I are celebrating our one year anniversary tomorrow! We were married one year ago in the St. George Temple and we're very happy to report that we still love each other!! Our first year of marriage was AWESOME! I couldn't ask for a more fantastic husband. He's so fun and makes life a party. He always keeps me positive and moving forward! I love you!

YUKON HO!

We went to Alaska this last week! It was really different because I'd never been on a cold cruise before and we weren't really sure what to expect? You will NEVER believe this but when Brandon and I pulled up to my parents house the night before our flight and we started getting our stuff out of the car I realized I left the ONE THING I was most excited about... my camera... thats right people! I left my Nikon with my new lens that I pretty much bought for this trip! I left it! It just didn't make it to the car somehow?

I was TICKED! It was still a blast though! Here are some highlights :)

First stop Pikes Market in Seattle! {we both look terrible in that pic but we woke up at 5 to catch our flight give us a break}

Day one was a boat day and we had Formal night on the ship! I always love formal night!

Day 2 we went and saw a HUGE hanging Glacier

After the Glacier we went whale watching!! SO FUN! We saw lots of hump backs!

In Juneau {day 3} we went and did the Zipline! It was crazy scary but SO FUN! You go through the rain forest over 130 foot deep canyons and stuff! SO COOL!

Day 4 we did a bike tour! We went all through the rain forests and around lakes and rivers.

Day 5 we took the whole day to go through a Fjord! We saw all these glaciers and seals and AMAZING waterfalls! The mountains are huge and all carved by the glaciers

Day 7 we landed in Canada! We were allowed off the ship at 7 p.m and had to be back by 10pm so we didn't have much to do. This is the Parliament building! It looked like Europe! We walked around the waterfront for a while and got some ice cream.

In other news my Mac died on sunday :( I had him for 3 years and I think I just pushed him too hard. Along with Mac both of my hard drives have died too so my Studio is at a stand still for a while.

speaking of dying, I died my hair back to brown! Blond was fun and I REALLY liked it but I just feel more like me with my brown hair back {don't tell my mom I died it though she doesn't know yet lol} I would like to put an end to this NEVER ENDING battle with me and my mom. She is CERTAIN that I'm a blond and I'm CERTAIN she's crazy. So I  put one of those poll things on my blog, it's on the top right hand side!
GO DO THE POLL AND HELP PUT AN END OT THE MADNESS!
