The New House and Jillian Michaels


Well, WE BOUGHT A HOUSE!!!!!

Hooray! We have been moving at about 90 mph the past week so life has been overly hectic for us!! We closed on Thursday (in only 22 minutes lol) and started moving boxes and other random crap over to the new house that afternoon. How the hell a little 600 sq ft apartment accumulates so much crap is beyond me. Here is the kitchen piled high with everything. I will admit that I was super stoked to use all of the the place settings and the new silverware that we got for our wedding. (Levi wouldnt let me open it until we moved into a house---you know...7 months after we got married)
As if I didn’t have enough going on Thursday, Jillian Michaels was in town for her Maximize Your Life Tour. Amy and I were totally bugging out to see her!! We went to Big Daddy's Burger Bar before the show and it was ridiculous. We semi ate healthy. I would be lying if I didn't smash some sweet potato fries. Obviously, I know I was totally counter productive going to see the holy grail of weight loss people and stuffing my face with fries and a burger but whatever. As for the show, HOLY AMAZING!! She was so real and down to earth and just told you how it is without any bogus diet/exercising nonsense. Eat less + move your ass = weight loss. Well I’ll be damned. She gets paid loads of money for that. She also spoke about how to read nutrition labels and how many times sugar is broken up into different components so it can be labeled further down on the ingredients list and therefore you don’t think it is such an unhealthy food because “sugar” isn’t listed first! Basically, everything she said made perfect sense and if possible you should go see her. Sorry for the super crappy picture, I was too busy drooling over her to hold my phone still. And yes, we were super close. Be Jealous.
Friday, we moved all of the big stuff over and began unpacking. Our friends Sam and Brian helped move and organize everything, which was such a giant help because we both were exhausted and were over it. That night we grilled out and watched the draft with them. Unpacking sucks the big one. Our fridge was at least packed up with the essentials…beer and subway. The perfect combo for any move!!! 
Saturday I taught a cycle express class at 8 am because, well, why not. I’m already exhausted why not beat some other people up too J After that, we ordered our new dining room table and set off to other stores. Of course, no new home purchase is complete without a trip to the container store and sears, so there we went to spend more money!! We ended up just going to sears on a whim, and our patio set that we had been looking at was on sale. I also asked for a 10% discount on top of it just for the hell of it and dude gave it to me!!! Saaaweeetttt.

Sunday was full of unpacking and getting our lives in order. Lets see how long that takes.

At least Frank loves the windows J

Do great things
