Anybody else feeling a little tight in the jeans area??? I told myself, back in October, that I was going to be careful over the holidays, but that declaration added up to 12.4 lbs, yikes. So here I am with the rest of the nation back in the "diet" saddle. I actually am not depressed about it because for the first time I can look back and say that I thoroughly enjoyed myself. To me it was worth it. I had fun with my children making sweet treats, fun pit stops to DQ for mother/child talks and family parities full of food. I created memories and I can't complain about that.

But with that comes the struggle to get back down to goal. So here's my challenge...12.4 lbs in 12 weeks starting today. Totally doable just a little over 1 lb a week. Anybody want to join me??? I'll post the recipes I'm using and some exercise tips that I am learning from my personal trainer. Oh did I mention I have one. Yeah birthday present to me back in November that I'm just starting to really utilize. Since my theme of the year is to simplify I'm quiting Curves and just working out at Gold's Gym. I don't need both, but I figured since I did my weight training at Curves I should learn what I need to be doing at Gold's. It will be nice to only have to go to one place. It will not only save me money, but gas and time as well ;) Can't complain about that!!

With my tips will come struggles and complaints so feel free to vent as well. We can do it together :) So here's to a new year and a new us, lol!!

New Year and my 1000 Fan Giveaway

January 2, 2012Holly Pitcher24 Comments

Wow what a year it's been. I can't believe that 2011 has come a gone. I feel as if it passed me by in such a whirlwind that it's hard for me to nail down exactly what occurred. Does anyone else feel that way? Well in order to slow down a bit I've found a quote that is going to become my motto for 2012.

I found it on my fav site Pinterest and then paid for the full resolution copy (here if you want your own) to put up on my wall. I framed it and placed it in my kitchen so I can see it every day and remember to keep me focused.

With my business keeping my hopping in 2011 I didn't have a lot of time to create and actually add those products into my shop. I'm hoping to do a lot more of that this year :) and plan on dedicating a lot more of my time to streamlining my shop and of course my products. I can't thank all of you enough for supporting me in this great adventure I am in and allowing me to continue doing something that I love. I often get asked if I'm sick of crocheting yet and I'm happy to report...not even close!!!

The best news of this new year is that I hit 1000 fans on Facebook. This has been one of my goals for awhile and I am just ecstatic that it finally came to pass. In order to say thanks I thought I would offer a little giveaway.

How does a $30.00 gift certificate sound??

What's New

Introducing...

Rose Double Strand Headbands ($15.00)

There is nothing like a rose to make anyone feel special. That is what I had in mind when I created this beautiful Rose Headband (shown in Hot Pink). From newborn to adult this soft rose is the perfect compliment to any outfit. Crocheted with highest quality mercalized cotton yarn.

The double strand of the headband joins at both tips for easy tying. Using it as a headband there is no need to untie each time; once tied, slip it on and off with ease. Because of the nature of the tied headband one size pretty much fits all, but to better customize there are two sizes available.

The flower measures around 2 1/4", but since they are all individuals that measurement varies with each one.

I am so excited about these headbands and have had a lot of fun wearing them as well as putting them on the girls :)

Here a few more colors

Wow, what a week! I turned the big 34 and I think every day was a party day :) I have the best friends and family and they all made me feel so loved!! I actually was able to get up and get ready pretty much 6 out of the seven days this week and I couldn't be more proud of myself. I have no completed 7 full weeks, wahoo! So here's what I did for week 7 of WIWW with Lindsey over at The Pleated Poppy

Day 1: Birthday lunches and parties (and don't mind my very messy room..it was by bday after all and I was taking the day off)
