Last update from the wedding weekend, I promise!
The fam and I had a long day of traveling on Sunday and I wasn’t sure when we’d be able to eat (or what would be available). So I took advatage of being able to have a heavier breakfast than usual.
I ordered a banana and granola parfait with plain yogurt and a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel (boy have I missed those!) – maybe not the healthiest choice, but it did the job of keeping my hunger in check.

This was a delicious start to the day and a great way to cap off my weekend!
What types of foods do you rely on when you want to keep you hunger in check?
For those of you who know me by now, you know I’m a talker. I tend to go on and on and ON with my personal, riveting dorky stories, hilarious corny jokes and inspirational accolades. You may have noticed that the past few days haven’t contained much of ME.
Well aren’t you perceptive! Here I was, thinking I was tricking you all, but you caught me Oops.
The truth is, I’ve been really busy with work and by the time I get home, all I want to do is spend time with my Mister (not that I don’t love you all ) It’s all about priorities! — Want to hear more about my balancing act in regards to priorities? Listen to my radio interview with blogtalkradio.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I’m still here, reading all of your blogs, just not commenting as much as I’d like to.
Yeah, yeah, yeah — enough of my pity party, let’s get to the good stuff. This week I found some pretty great articles that I wanted to share with all of you — enjoy!

Me and my Mister
I had a fantastic time dancing with my family! My mom and I were cuttin’ a rug, that’s for sure! The Mister was kind enough to join me on the dance floor, too
All in all, it was a fantastic celebration. I love weddings because they force you to reflect and renew your own relationships, as well. Celebrating a new marriage makes you so appreciative of your own. I love you Mister!
What is your wedding dance style? Do you get jiggy with it or watch everyone else make fools of themselves have fun?
I’m always on the dance floor! And I don’t even need any liquid courage — trust me, I’m crazy enough as it is
