Summer hiadus

Wow, is it possible that summer is coming to an end... I feel so bad that I haven't kept up with this! I know that there are those that are wondering what has been going on this summer, so here's the skinny! Haha

My husband and I have continued with our life style. We have had a great summer and just returned from an AWESOME vacation with our friends to Palisades Reservoir in Idaho. Oh man do we miss them. It was great re-connecting our families. We took a picture 2 years ago in Jackson and re-created it on our trip. I love it! It's such a great reminder to where we came from and how to keep going.


Can you believe the difference! I just love the way we look now! We feel so much better about ourselves!



I love this pic of us and our buddies! I love that time and distance haven't changed our relationship! Love the Ripkos!

We have been very busy. It seems that every weekend, we have something planned. We spent two weekends in Sheridan in July, where we got to see so many family members. Several of our family members haven't seen Reo since his big transformation. It's still crazy to hear the reactions of our weight loss from those who haven't seen us. Here are some fun pics from our summer


I got a hammock last year for my birthday for camping, but I never got to use it! This camping trip, I used it! I drank morning coffee in it and took a glorious afternoon nap in it! LOVE IT!


We ate ice cream! YUMMMM!



We took awesome pics of the kids camping in this old Model A car! The kids loved it!



My husband ran in his first 5K! Yeah babe! We ran it together and we finished in 29:00 min! Not too shabby!


With all of the craziness that is going on, the truth is we haven't let it impact our lifestyle. We still eat a ton of fruits and veggies and try to nix most processed foods. Hope this is a little glimpse of what we have been up to! Look forward to more blogs coming from me as changes are coming my way!
