man, I love vacation

Ahhhh… the day after Christmas… in my mind this day is meant for naps, food, movies and family.  Lucky for me, I was able to get all four!

The last few days have been spent prepping for the holiday and spending as much time as possible with the fam.  Whenever I am planning a trip back here, it always feels like it will be a long time but once I am here the time flies.    We made cookies galore, enjoyed the end of the world and of course have slurped up my fair share of Pacific Northwest coffee!

I still have a few more days here.  Tomorrow I will be making my skirt for the Disney World marathon!  I am super excited!  My mom’s bestie is going to help me whip it out in all of it’s red sequined glory.  Then there is still a slumber “pahtey” in order with my sis, niece and nephew, a trip to Costco (man, Kzoo – PLEASE get on the ball with this and put one in!), going to see the Hobbit with my dad and anything else we decide to do.  I also need to get some running in there.  I’ve been fairly laid back about getting my miles in since being here and that’s not going to help me PR in just a couple of short weeks.  Not to mention, I have some sweet new gear to put to the test!

I also have until Friday to decide if I want to buy this

It’s on sale, is iFit compatible and a few other nifty things.  It’s also expensive. I used to own one and I sold it about a year ago since I never used it.  This is the point my dad brings up in favor of me saving my fundage.  Ugh… decisions!

  1. I love having a treadmill as an option. I go in spurts with how much I use mine but do love having it there. If you never used the old one though that would be a question!

  2. Wouldn’t this take up, like, HALF your living room ?! Lol lol. Always love when you write about us, think about what kind of slumber party snacks we should have !! Xo
