Great Vacation, but it Feels Good to be HomeΒ 

In six days we gambled in Vegas, hiked a beautiful waterfall trail and hiked a trail that was in water at Zion, and visited the underground Antelope Canyons. We drove from Las Vegas through Utah and Nevada. It was perfect. 

Great job to my brother and cousin for executing the trip and thanks to my mom for traveling with me and taking  one hundred pics of me 😁

More adventures to come! Stay tuned.

Hiking 🏞



I’m hiking in Utah today, y’all! I have had many amazing hiking experiences, but never a water hiking trail. It was unbelievable. Hiking 60% of the time in water was an all-time great experience. If you ever get the chance to come to Zion National Park; it’s a given you have to come. 

My mom, brother, and myself like to take one hiking trip a year. My bro is πŸ‘†πŸ» pictured above. 

Oh yeah, and if you do hike in water, ever, do yourself a favor and buy or rent a pair of water hiking shoes, like the ones pictured above. It is so worth it!

Family Time!Β 

Hiking through Zion National Park with my mom, brother, and cousin. Such an amazing experience!

If you’re an active female, you HAVE to invest in some LuluLemon tights. They’re great for the gym, jogging, and hiking. They keep everything tight and they’re not restrictive or uncomfortable and they are extremely durable.

I’m in Vegas, but I’m getting kinda restless for our real adventures to begin! Tomorrow we’re headed to Utah, and then Arizona, to do some hiking. Yay!

Pardon my mess! I just got in from a trip with my girlfriends and I’m leaving for another trip tomorrow. I haven’t had time to unpack and straighten things out.

Pizza Problems

So, I don’t have work problems, because I’m on summer break. I don’t have man problems, because I don’t have a man. But, I’ll admit it. I’ve got some serious pizza problems! It carried over into my personal life on Friday night. 

I get a text to go bowling with this cute guy. I said yes. But then lunch time came around and Lissette and I thought pizza sounded good. Ordering a large also sounded good. Finishing the entire pizza sounded good. The feeling afterward wasn’t so good. 

So we walked around the mall for two hours, hoping to get some relief, but the huge lump of pizza in my belly was still there. 

Cute guy texts me if we’re still on for bowling. Hmmm, will he mind if I wear sweatpants, because no jeans are gonna fit right now. Maybe I could wear a loose dress? No way! Too close on looking like I’m 5 months pregnant. But not only that, the sleepiness is setting in. Ahhh, going to sleep at 6:30 p.m. is sounding really good right now. 

So I tell cute guy to have fun with his friends and that I’ll have to pass. Now I’m sitting there looking at Lissette like, did I just make a mistake? Should I put on my big girl pants? That thought came and went in like 1 minute. I made the right choice. 

PJs and Redbox movies are looking really promising right now. Not a care in the world. I’m actually starting to feel pretty much back to normal. But wait, is that what I think it is? A hunger pang? Seriously? You just canceled a date for over indulging in pizza and now you’re hungry again?!? 

I drink water. Ok, movie is good. Lounging is good. Hmmm, oh yeah, I’m hungry. What places deliver? Pizza? Yeah, no way! What else? 

So, off to get nachos. Oh! Those nachos were a-m-a-z-i-n-g! I called it quits at the right time, but there was this one lingering nacho. That nacho was a game changer. It set me over the edge and I was back at square one again. 

Saturday morning required an hour and a half at the gym. But I lived to tell you the tale! XOXO

Saturday Night’s Look

I’m really loving the summer lifestyle! I got invited to go bowling on Friday night, but I ate too much pizza and had to stay home and recover. πŸ’ͺ🏼 More about my pizza problems later. Lissette and I still had fun, even though I really wanted to go bowling with that cute guy! Maybe he’ll ask me out again? If not, pizza is always there for me! πŸ•

Anyway, I wore this dress out Saturday night to go out with friends and it was so comfortable. The material is very stretchy and casual, but the crochet neck dresses it up a little bit. The dress is a steal for under $20.
