Ice Skating & My Fitness Status

When planning a team activity for my coworkers I always want to do something active. Last time it was Zumba, this time it was ice skating! I loved all the Christmas lights and music at the Gallivan Center in Salt Lake City. The rink was small but the fun was big! We practiced our tricks, danced on the ice and watched a couple get engaged. It was a great way to kick off the holiday season.

 

In Chelsea fitness news... My left IT band is still bugging me, I've been treating it like ITBS and have been running very little this past month but I'm really not seeing any improvement. I think I need to do some more research on how I can heal it quicker because it is hindering my yoga practice and this is my favorite time of the year to practice yoga.

I went to a pump class AND Zumba class on Thanksgiving and it was so wonderful, especially before  eating all that yummy stuffing at Tucanos--yes, we went to a restaurant for Thanksgiving and it was actually really fun and yummy!

Hope you're all having a great holiday season so far!


Happy Fitnessing (and relaxing)!

Halloween with Thor and Spider Girl

We had a great Halloween this year! I started the day off a way I always regret... NOT working out in the morning. BIG thumbs down! Both Eric and I celebrated a little at work with a pot luck for customers and employees at Real Foods and a pizza party at Silhouette America (Eric's job).

I made Sue dress up for work :) Cutest. Minnie. Ever! 

After work we did the traditional out to dinner with our friends and then off to our place to watch scary movies and the always favorite Nightmare Before Christmas. I know some of you probably think that movie is creepy. I used to as well, but then I gave it another chance and totally loved it. You gotta watch it on Halloween. Although, I'm not going to deny that the Mayor that can flip his head around seriously freaks me out. I really don't recommend that movie to kids under the age of 18. :) ANYWAY...

Before we went to our house we stopped at a park and Eric, or should I say, Thor, graced us with his rendition of a scary murder story. If you know Eric then you can just imagine how that went down. He used a flashlight and made us close our eyes and everything. Oh, and then he made us run away from him like he was a murderer coming after us. I sure love my entertaining husband.

Thor chasing us... so freaky, I did not like this.

Scary friends with scary eyes.

I ate a big handful of my favorite naughty candy ever: Sour Patch Kids and went to bed way too late... not sure it was worth it because I felt like crap all day Friday, but we had a great time!

Btw - Sister Salcido wanted me to tell everyone Happy Halloween!

Tell me your favorite candy?

What did you do for Halloween?
