Good morning Colts fans! I have the day off, so I was able to sleep in until 10am! The first thing I do every morning is wake up my Chihuahua, Lily, to feed her breakfast and take her outside for some fresh air. Today was such a beautiful day! I had lots of things I wanted to get done today, so I started by picking up the house for my mom, Mary, so she would be pleasantly surprised when she came home for lunch! I also caught up on all of my laundry. By about 2 o'clock I was ready to enjoy some sunshine so I gathered up all kinds of supplies to spring clean my car. It feels so amazing to have that out of the way! 5 o'clock was here before I knew it and it was time for my best friend, Jamie, and I to go on our daily run. The weather couldn't have been more perfect. I returned home at 6:30 pm and my dad already had dinner ready (hamburgers and sweet potato fries mmmm). I finished off my night with a hot shower and my nightly abdominal workout. Well, time for bed. Sleep tight everyone!

Good morning! Today I woke up at 9 am to feed Lilly and take her outside (the usual). Today is my last day off before I start my busy Wednesday through Sunday schedule. I decided to get ready for the Colts Cheerleading workshop early so I curled my hair and put on some workout clothes. Lately I have been redecorating and spring cleaning my bedroom, and painting seems to be my hobby this past week. I took six old picture frames outside and painted them to hang up above my dresser. At 4 pm I was ready to make my long drive to Indianapolis! I live in a small town about 90 minutes away. I pulled into the Colts complex with lots of butterflies because this is the first workshop I have been able to attend. Seeing all the new beautiful faces makes me so nervous yet excited at the same time! We had a productive night with lots of kicks and calorie burning! I'm going to be sore tomorrow. I'm exhausted, goodnight everyone!

It's a beautiful morning in Colts nation! I woke up at 9 am this morning at Breanna's (another cheerleader) apartment. I have to go into work today after four amazing days off, and trust me its very hard to do. I ate a small breakfast and quickly got myself ready for work. I work in retail so I have to dress up every day. At 10:30 I made my long drive back home to start my workday at noon. The evening had arrived before I knew it and it was time for my "daily" run with Jamie. This is the first time she and I had ever run outside after dark and we both loved it! It's so calm and quiet in my small town and the weather is just wonderful. Finally, I arrived back to the house at 11:30 pm. Time to wash my face and go to bed! I have another workday tomorrow. Goodnight!

Good Morning! My alarm clock went off bright and early at 7 am. I'm lucky enough to work the early shift today, which is 10 am to 5pm. For breakfast I ate a heart healthy bowl of cinnamon swirl oatmeal (my favorite flavor) and then hopped in the shower to quickly get ready for work. When I arrived at work I had lots of things to accomplish on a list that my boss had left for me. We have a huge visit coming up from our company president, and the store has to be looking its best! Because I had so much to keep me occupied, work was over before I knew it. Finally I was home, but I was excited to go on another evening run tonight with Jamie. At 7:30 we met up at the local Grand Stands, which is a baseball park, football field, and track all in one! This is where we like to run so we know exactly the distance we are covering. 3 miles later we were exhausted! We decided to relax on the ground right where we were running for about 30 minutes before heading our separate ways. We talked about our day while staring at the beautiful Brookville view of the stars. Soon I was home and more than ready for bed. Goodnight!

It's finally Friday! That doesn't say much for me since I have to work the entire weekend, but this is my favorite day of the week because I get to spend the evening with my two beautiful nieces and my oldest sister. I don't get to see the three of them very often so I always look forward to the Friday's I'm at home. I had to work today from 10 am to 5 pm once again, but I got home in time to spend the last few hours of the night with everyone. My oldest niece is Michaela and she is two, and the youngest is Elizabeth and she is 6 months! Michaela is at the age where she does and says some of the silliest things, but she never fails to make me smile. After giving me 100 kisses bye, they left around 9 pm. Even though it's a Friday I had to wrap up my night early so I could catch up on lost sleep. Bed sounded better than anything in the world. Goodnight 12th man!

Good morning! Today I woke up at 8 am so I would have a few hours to pull myself together before working the night away! My shift starts at 1pm and I don't get off until 9:30 pm. I decided that because it was the weekend I still deserved to be a little lazy, so I spent most of my morning on the couch watching TV. Finally I decided that I absolutely had no more time spare and I quickly showered and changed into work clothes. I went in knowing I had to be extra productive because of the big visit we were having in 4 days, so therefore the night flew by and I was home by 10:30 pm. After arriving at home I was pretty exhausted but I squeezed out enough energy to slip in an abdominal workout. Time to hit the sheets once again, what a quick week this has been. Goodnight!

It's nice not having to wake up to an alarm on Sunday morning, although I still had to go into work. Sundays are always a short day starting at noon and closing at 6pm, so they are my favorite! Once again I proceeded to accomplish a list of tasks that had been set for me to work on. We didn't have many customers today and we had extra help, so I was able to finish everything on my list along with helping the other managers with their tasks. Around 7:30 pm I arrived at home and my mom, Mary, surprised me with one of my favorite dinners, Reubens! She is a serious professional when it comes to making these tasty sandwiches. I only had a half of one because I didn't want to overstuff myself before going on my evening run at 8:30. Tonight's run felt absolutely amazing, even though it was starting to get a little chilly. I love ending my night with a great calorie burn. Thank you so much for spending the week with me! I hope to see you all from the turf next season.
