*raises hand*
We all love to eat. Well, most of us anyway... I've had such a hard time with OUR eating habits & trying to change them. It drives me crazy! I'll eat healthy all day & then Brandon comes home & mentions our favorite chinese food restaurant... GAME OVER. A few years ago, I lost a ton of weight but I was super strict about what I ate. It actually messed my body up because I wasn't eating healhty... just deprived & working out a lot. I don't want to deprive myself again and Brandon doesn't do very well with diets either so thats not an option. Let's be honest... Brandon & I are foodies so instead of trying to not eat things... I've been looking for recipes that allow us to eat the food we love (pizza, cookies, etc) but waaaaaay healthier. At the end of the day, I just want us to be healthy. I'm sure I'm not the only one out there with things struggle.
I love cookies... & I tried this super easy recipe for cookies that changed my life. They are literally just bananas, oatmeal, & of course chocolate chips. WAY BETTER than regular cookies. I'm sure they aren't for everyone but I love bananas so I win! :) In Brandon's case, he loves pizza. Boy can straight up eat pizza all day, every day. (what is it with men and pizza?) I'm on the hunt for a healthy version to make at home for him.
I would love to hear things you guys have tried. Seriously. I will try (almost) anything. Sharing is caring. :)
my yummy healthy cookies *drool*
Oh, I just love adventures! I hope everyone is excited to come along for ours! We all love Facebook and twitter and foodilicous Instagram... But here is where you'll get all the dirt and all the fun from our lives. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll get the occasional insanely hilarious work story from me.

YES. This is happening....
Brandon & I think blogs are fun so we're starting one. I'm sure it will mostly be me posting on here but that is fine. We figured it would be nice especially for our families since they are all states away from us. Family and friends can keep up with what is going on in our lives.
Our first update? Sure. Lets get started...
There is a lot going on for both of us since we're juggling school and work, even through the summer. Fall semester will be my last so I'm trying to get through summer and move on to the beginning of the end. I'm really excited but exhausted. I haven't taken a break from school since I moved out to Utah in May 2011! The nice thing is that my last semester will only consist of TWO classes. Yay! Brandon on the other hand has a few years left since he didn't go to school before going on his mission (oops!) but he has been working so hard & stacking up classes every semester. He got his Associates degree from Mountain View College so he is working on his Bachelors at Utah Valley University. We're both just ready to be done with school. Senioritis for me.... Brandon is just done with homework. Haha.
Our schedules keep us here when we dream of going on a vacation... somewhere far, somewhere new. Oh, do we need a vacation! *Donations will be accepted* ;) haha
Anyway... after almost 7 months, our little basement feels like home now. Ironically, we'll be moving at the end of summer. Put it all together just to take it apart. Haha! Oh well.. that is life, isn't it? I love our little cave but I'm ready to move on. I can't even believe we're coming up on our 7th month of marriage. We're almost to a year! Where does the time go? Jeez.
Well... this is it for now! :)
