laughter | Day With KT

Today’s 43 was inspired by one of my Turbo Fire workouts from the past week. I did a speed bag move on the right and then kicked with my left leg. Of course, after finishing 43, I had to switch sides and do another set with the speed bag on my left and a right kick. (imaginary speed bag!!)

I wore my weighted gloves to add a little to the speed bag challenge – I think they only weight a pound each but at least it was something! This was a fun 43!!!

I feel like I haven’t done much weight training lately so I decided to do Les Mills Pump. I did Pump and Burn which is one of the shorter workouts (just over 30 minutes). Probably a good choice since I finished about 30 minutes ago and my arms are still shaking!!! I think there’s a good chance that I will be sore tomorrow!!

The past week, the boys and I have spent almost every minute together during our trip to TX while Chris was on his own trip for work. I started thinking about all the things we have done and how much we have laughed together – a lot!!! Knowing that my boys are having fun and that we can all laugh together makes me HAPPY!!!

I watch the boys and know that when they are grown and no longer live with us they will have 1000s of happy memories from the time spent at home and with their family!!!

Whether we are spending hours together in a car, playing one of the 100s of games that we have played over the years (Monopoly, Life, Uno, Skip-Bo, Head Bandz……..), sharing a meal together

or just hanging out – I want the boys to keep storing up these fun/happy memories!!!

Last night we added more memories!! A week of firework fun has begun!!!

So, even though sometimes I have to give up things that I would like to do – FitBloggin’ conference – in the big picture, the things that matter are these everyday fun times that I get to be part of with my boys!!!

There are huge chunks of my growing up years that I have completely blocked from my memory and I want to make sure that my boys have full memory banks of awesome family times!!!

And, the bonus of building up the boys happy memory banks is that I’m also building up my own memory bank with lots of incredible experiences!!!

I can’t wait to see what we add to our “banks” today!!! Probably some time at the swim beachDefinitely more fireworks tonight!!!

And above all – laughter, happiness and LOVE!!!

What are you putting in your memory bank today?

Happy Sunday!!!

Today’s 43 was one of Hunter’s creations – I think sometimes he wants to see how hard he can push me!!!! He does a couple and calls it quits but I have to do 43. Oh, well – I like the challenge!!!

So, the move was a skater with a side push-up with one leg back and one knee bent.

Try them – it was a fun move (for about 20)!!! I counted each push-up as 1 so maybe I cheated because I didn’t do 43 each side but I think 43 total was enough with this move!!!

Then it was Boot Camp time. This morning I just did the 6 am in my backyard. (Last Friday I did 6 and 7:15!!!) I’m really happy that the hot weather this week has meant no more wet grass for boot camp – so much nicer!!!

Today’s Insanity Asylum workout was Back to Core. Jordan decided to do this with me instead of just sit and watch (and critique) me. I think it was good for him – he did about 25-30% and was dying. And, I told him this is the “easiest” one in the program. Now he knows that just because watching it is easy, doing the workout is another thing completely. He said he will try some more so that he can build up – Good Plan!!! I try to have fun no matter what I’m doing – some days and some events are a little harder than others to find the fun!!

YIKES!!! Don’t want that – better just laugh out loud!!!

So – I don’t really think anyone is an idiot but this made me laugh!!!

Sponge Bob knows how to laugh – and he laughs often (and annoyingly!!!).

Almost every day – often while running!!! And then I always do the quick check to see if anyone saw me about bite the ground!!!

These things always entertain me (and because I’m sort-of anal I won’t quit looking until I can figure it out!!).

I couldn’t do this without going really slow – and I rarely say things slowly!!! (even then it took a lot of tries!!)

This just made me laugh because I’m usually the one that asks a stupid question like “what are you doing?” when it totally obvious what someone is doing!!!

And, I don’t know why this picture cracked me up so much but it did!! Maybe because it is sort of true.
