Been a while!!

Sorry it's been s while since I've posted anything, so I thought I'ld catch everyone up........ with everything!
Talmage is in his second semester at Colorado Film School and has quickly become known as "THE EDITOR" at school. He is booked with projects all semester and has even been recommended by his teachers to other students for help. He loves his classes and has been keeping busy between that and working in the "cage".
I am still trucking along at MLK, and really coming into my own groove there. I love the kiddos (most of the time) and we are currently preparing for our spring concert. I have given the kids harder music and set the performance bar really high- so far they have risen to the occasion and have really been working hard to learn parts and work all the other musicality portions into their performances. It is hard work, and I am exhausted by the end of the day, but we have fun. :)

I am still eating Primal and have loved the results! I hit my 20 pound mark this morning (I did a lilttle dance in the bathroom) and am almost at my goal weight. Even when I do reach my goal I do plan to keep eating this way because I feel sooooo good, I get to experiment in the kitchen (almond flour pancakes were a major fail yesterday, due to a stupid recipe), and the food rocks. It has become so easy to plan meals or even eat out. I LOVE IT!! I think my ma may even try to eat primal- I'm excited to see how she does :)

Had an awesome girls day out with my mom on Saturday in one of the coolest stores ever! Charming Charlies was so much fun- we spent two whole hours looking at jewelry, purses, hair accesories, and clothes. I have to say it is always so nice to spend time with the mama, she makes my heart happy:)

We had a great weekend last weekend which we were able to share with our good friends Evan and Karina. Other than Thanksgiving it was the first time we hosted at our house. I made an AWESOME salmon filet and veggies, and they brought Scattergories. Needless to say it was a night full of good company, great conversations, fun Mario moments, and hilarious answers to scattergories....(things that grow----muffin tops!!) Can't wait to have them over again.

Talmage has been encouraging me to become a certified ZUMBA instructor since I love to do it, and I have had several requests by other people to do so....... I'm thinking I will try to do that this summer and see how it goes from there. For right now I'm content to take classes at the rec center.

All in all we are moving forward, having fun, enjoying each others' company, and still very much in love. Life is good!
