One foot in front of the other

Yesterday I opened up Facebook and saw a post about an Estate sale. On that post it had a Proform treadmill for $60. I have been dreaming of getting a treadmill again. I know….weird. Treadmills are my thing! I love cardio, I know….weird! I really do though. It helps me lose weight and it honestly makes me happy. On my way home from riding my bike for cardio fun, I stopped by this estate sale. It had just opened and I asked the lady if it really was $60. Long story short, they wanted $65. I checked it out and it looked, sounded and an great! I put a hold on it and came back with my hubby and a vehicle to take it home. I cleaned it super good and just had a chance today to run on it. 


Wow wow wee! I love it. This treadmill first cost $800 brand new and I get it for $60. It only had 443 miles on it and that’s nothing for a treadmill. In my opinion. Like I said in my last blog post, do what you love when it comes to exercise. Some people hate cardio, some people hate weights, some people just hate working out LOL Do something you love! I love cardio and taebo. Absolutely love. When I do those two workouts I feel my best! 

Get up and go! Start somewhere! And find something you will love to do. One foot in front of the other my friend! 

Happy Sunday everyone!

We are having….

Another boy!! 🙂 We are super excited! As much as I was wanting to have a girl, I am kind of relieved to be having another boy. Now I can get on to preparing for a baby boy. We donated all of Mavericks baby clothes so we do have to start over. But, I really do not mind. It’s awesome to shop for baby stuff 🙂 The hard part is going to be a name……maybe Goose…since his brothers name is Maverick. Haha

Happy Thursday!

Apple picking and family fun at the farm

We had our first “outing” here in Virginia since we moved here a few months ago. We wanted to do a fun family day and came across Great Country Farms in Bluemont. They had a lot to offer at the farm so we picked that place to go. It took us about 45 minutes to get there and it was an incredible drive. There wasn’t a part of that drive that was ugly or yucky to drive through. I believe we found a new location to live when we buy a house again. The new homes here are incredible and you get so much! The prices aren’t the cheapest for new homes but I’d rather get a new home here than California any day. I never thought I’d say that but it’s true!  This just a glimpse of how gorgeous the drive was.  

land, farms, cute towns and amazing homes on this drive

When we got the the farm you have to pay admission but since my husband is a veteran we all got in for free. I absolutely love places that recognize veterans, you’d be surprised by how many place only give discounts to active military. The first place we went was straight to the tractors. Our son love all boy things, seriously.   

  
Then off to the cow ride that gets pulled by a tractor.  

 
They were excited ha ha. 

They climbed the tire hill 

 
And so much more to list. The last place we went was on the tractor so we could go pick apples. This was our first time picking apples and it was fun but so fast. We were exhausted from the farm fun and it was the hottest part of the day. Here are a few pictures to show you how much he loved the tractor ride. 

   

  
   

He was hot so I took his shirt off for the ride back. 

 
We got a bunch of apples and their apple cider donuts.  

 Holy macaroni the donuts were so darn good. I need to learn how to make them. The first thing I made with our apples was Apple crisp. So darn yummy!!! I’m going to post the recipe next.

I highly recommend this farm if you are looking for a fun place to go with the family. We are hoping to go back for Halloween fun. 

Love life and live simple
