5 Health Snacks

so here it is friday again and here I am at another volleyball tournament, so it just makes sense that I share with you my top five go to healthy snacks. these are the ones I smuggle into the tournaments, where they do not allow you to bring your own food, to ensure my girls have something substantial to nourish them throughout the day. so here is the deal: read comment link up :) teaming up with Karli and amy for five on friday. like I have said before, I will never understand why these tournaments often time do not have many, if any, healthy choices. so here is what is in our bag for the weekend. 1//   cuties really aren't these just the best. so sweet, so quick, so easy and yum!! 2//   energy balls - they are just that and you can make them so many different ways adding whatever you would like. I like mine just like this: 1cup old fashioned rolled oats 1/3 cup agave nectar 1/2cup peanut butter - who am I kidding, I add a bit more because I just love me

10 on Tuesday

a contest for the big game

what big game are you talking about?  yes, you may be asking that. tomorrow ends what is a big event in our house, we are getting ready for one shining moment and the end of the madness.  most of our brackets are busted but it still keeps us on the edge of our seats and me crying pretty much from the beginning to the end.  yes i cry. i cry when they show the pre game stories, you know, the kid that made it to college over all adversities. i cry when they show the team getting ready i cry when they come out i cry when they do the pre game i cry when they show the families in the stands i cry when the team looses and they are sobbing on each other i cry when the winners celebrate and hug their coach and i defiantly cry through one shining moment…if i am awake so lets kick off the #summerstrong plan and the march madness ending and make this game a little more fun. now don't get me wrong, i love nothing more than laying my butt on the couch eating chips, popcorn,
