Getting Fit

10/25/2012

I was happy to walk with my friend Dixie and her daughter Anna today. We walked 2 miles and did a set of stadiums at Oxford High School. I used my 5 pound weights for an additional challenge. I sure hope Dixie exercises with me again : )

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Today was "Nerd Day" at school. I can't believe it, but I actually dressed up like a nerd! To the left are just some pics from earlier today.
I must warn you, these pics are hideous!

Shout Out (2012 Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure)

10/20/2012

I am so glad I came out and completed this walk. It was really for a great cause. I was so glad to see so many people to come out and support the cause!

These are some of the people I walked for today.

These are the breast cancer ribbon earrings I made to match the WJR Club breast cancer awareness t-shirt.

Hair Challenge (No Heat)

10/20/2012

I have been on a "No Heat" challenge since December of 2011. I have never really been fund of putting heat in my hair (even when I had a perm), so this challenge has been super easy for me. Below are pics of my hair blow dried and flat ironed.

Flat Ironed December 2011

Flat Iron/Braid Out December 2011

The first pic is freshly flat ironed hair. I put several plats in my hair after I flat ironed it, which resulted in the waves you see in the second picture. When I flat iron my hair, I never get it bone straight. I really don't care to have it bone straight because I know I will not keep it straight for long. Oh yeah, that is not my underwear showing in the first pic. Those are tights : )

I am making plans to flat iron my hair for my birthday in February 2013, so my challenge will actually last longer than a year. I will keep you posted!

Hairstyles

10/3/2012

These pics are of me at my cousin's 50th birthday dinner. I made one big jumbo twist out of all the twists in the back of my hair. I tucked the end of the jumbo twist under, then secured it with hair pins. I made one jumbo twist from all the twists on the left side at the top, then secured it with hair pins as well. I left the right side down in the top.

On another note, my outfit was put together at the last minute! The dress I was going to wear was too revealing, so I had to go with plan B. The top is by Fleurish, the skirt is by Catch My I, the belt is by Betsey Johnson, the shoes are by Impo, and the Earrings are by Unique Ears : )
