Good by 2013 and Hello 2014

I completely missed 2013 on my blog....

It was a great year and I promise to be better next...

The Rogers did a few workout competitions and learned how to be healthier and stronger (Thank you Full Throttle Athletics). Ambient11 had another incredible year in business. I started a new job at PCA (Prestonwood Christian Academy) and I LOVE it. I also started a home based business of my own called Nerium and it has changed our lives for ever financially! We have only had two baseboards and one windowsill chewed up by Mya :) We have made amazing friendships through our Bible Study and as we keep sharing the love of Jesus I can only imagine how great the next year is going to be!!!!

Good bye 2013 and Hello 2014

True Term of BFF

Rachel and I meet in 7th grade at Hendrick Middle School you could say we have been sisters ever since.... :) She has always been there for me through thick and thin. She stood by my side at my wedding and she has supported and encouraged me throughout our entire friendship. I couldn't ask for a better Best friend.

I had the honor of being her "Matron of Honor" in her wedding on September 22nd. She was a gorgeous bride and my most talented husband Braeden of Ambient 11 Photography took the pictures. So I had to share a few of my favorites....

The 2nd Love of my Life:: MYA

Born 12/25/2011 Christmas and got her 2/14/2012 Valentines

Ready. Set. Go

Here we are... a new year with NEW GOALS! Braeden and I have been participating in Boot camp for the past 6 weeks. We are hoping to see great improvements come April when we go on the family vacation :) 


Attending class at least 3-5X a week and starting a new diet have I learned a lot...

MY TOP TEN LIST

1. Having a healthy Breakfast is a must. I usually grab a meal replacement because I think sleep is more important. 

2. Bread is not good for you! You can get the carbs you need through the Vitamins you take everyday. 

3. Must have Krill oil pills. Want healthy hair, nails, and heart.. YES please! 

4. Taking before and after pictures helps motivate you. 

5. Running several miles a day is not the only way you can lose weight. You should left weights and do several different work outs to target all your muscles. 

6. Grilled Chicken and vegetables are all you eat therefore Spices are your best friends. 

7. Having a friend/Husband doing it with you helps A LOT!

8. Don't use milk in your Protein shakes.. defeats the purpose 

9. If you need to eat unhealthy do it right after a workout- your body will burn it quicker.

10 The most important is of course the outfit you work out in.... okay... maybe not but it does help to look good and feel good. 

My personal favorites..... 

"If you always do what you have always done, then you will always get what you have always got." 

"You focus your mind to train your body and the changes that begin to take place impact your mind as well. Dream it, believe it, and you will achieve it."

::Pumpkin Treats::

                                           Found this idea on Pinterest! They were so much fun to make. Make any kind of Cupcake Mix you like... dip large Marshmellows in colored frosting and create fun faces for your Halloween creatures!

Happy Pumpkins!
