Wednesday Loves

It's Wednesday...the week is half way over and it feels like it just started.

Technically, I guess it did just start for me since I was off on Monday.

Wouldn't it be nice if every week was a 4 day week?

Anyways, I am linking up with Jamie for WILW and Michelle for Oh How Pinteresting...

these are 2 of my faves!

{BCS}

I'm absolutely ecstatic that Alabama won the BSC National Championship game Monday night!

I'm loving, even more, that it was a complete shutout.

We had a little get together at my friend, Heather's.

and had such a wonderful time watching this game with our fellow alums.

{Off day}

 I'm loving that my day off was very productive and started with a 2 hour hike, partially in the rain.

We are awesome like that!

{New Year, New You}

I'm loving how motivated I am lately...

I bought 3 groupons lately...

Livemocha

12 month online access to learn up to 32 different languages.

I'm thinking I will do good to learn Spanish, but the more the merrier. (Is that a word?)

I also bought this pedometer for $10.

I want to be able to count my steps and see how many calories I burn in a day. 

I also bought a groupon for $20 worth of organic groceries for $10.

I have been obsessing over eating organically lately.

By the way, I'm also loving MyFitnessPal and my new scale!

I have eaten so well the past couple of days and I'm pretty sure that I am building the foundation for the rest of my life...

I know that sounds corny, but I am so dedicated this time 

(unlike the millions of other times that I whine about being out of shape and eat healthy for about one day)

Please, leave me a comment if you are on MyFitnessPal so we can be friends!

{Giveaway}

I'm also loving this amazing giveaway!

Check it out.

OK, moving on...

Some pins that have really motivated me this week!

I love love love this!

During our hike on Monday, we were quoting this to motivate each other...

we were talking about how we wanted to be able to hike in our sports bras and feel skinny...

that is our goal for 2012!

How true is this...

Just for fun....

There are times that I have been so self-conscious about my freckles, but I have learned to embrace them.

I've always been told they are cute, so today I encourage you to embrace your freckles.

They are a part of YOU.

Happy happy Wednesday lovelies!
