Today was back to school day after a nice, long (but not long enough) spring break. I wasn't feeling too bad about going back. State assessments start this week and I was ready to be about business. Plus Zumba started today! I was so excited to get back! I missed shakin' it so much. After a craptastic day yesterday (KU loss, snow, and knowing I had to get up early) it was exactly what I needed. For those of you not familiar, Zumba is a Latin American dance based aerobics class and I LOVE it! It's fun and fast paced and smile inducing. Plus my teacher Traci is really great. She has lots of energy and does a great job breaking the steps down for us. So I'll be doing Zumba Monday and Wednesdays and cycling on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Hopefully shaking and spinning myself into a smaller jean size!
Something I also did this evening that probably did not help with my jean size was eat a yummy dinner prepared by Brian's loving hand. Yesterday when making the Sunday shopping list/meal plan for the week we debated between enchiladas and chicken tortilla soup. I started poking around on Kraft Foods for inspiration. I love this website. It has tons of recipes for almost anything you would want to cook. Most of them are super easy and user friendly. After a few minutes searching I found this recipe: Santa Fe Chicken Enchilada Soup! The best of both worlds! Brian made it while I was at Zumba and it turned out really yummy. It reminded me of a cheesy, hamburger, Mexican chili recipe from my friend Pope. It wasn't very spicy so we added a little Tabasco. Perfect!
So now that I feel like I'm in the groove with this whole blogging thing I've decided it's time to dress my blog up a bit. When I started I didn't really know what I was doing or what I wanted to write about or what I wanted my blog to be! Now I feel like I sort of have an idea and I want my blog to visually reflect what I'm writing about. I know I want it to have some cool colors, fonts, and other features. I definitely want to post more photos too. I just don't know where to start. Kaleigh's blog over at Lotte Lu and Brother Too is super cute. She's so darn crafty. Any advice for making a pretty blog is welcome!
