Getting in Shape!

So I have begun to wonder why I have been a little soft around the edges the past year.  It has REALLY bothered me and I had no idea why it began because nothing really changed in my eating or exercise habits but my mother (brilliant woman that she is) figured it out!  I have had a car for the last year and instead of using my feet as my main mode of transportation, I was sitting WAY more.  I decided that daily walks were necessary to get back into shape and stay that way so some friends from work that I absolutely adore began talking walks with me in the morning and I have noticed a change the past month.  I have also been attempting to run (which is a joke because I suck at it) and lift weights on a regular basis as well as eating less candy and carbs and more fruits and veggies.  This is the beginning of a beautiful relationship with health and I am SO excited to continue!  More updates with possible pics later!

Moving back...

Well, I am four classes away from my Masters degree in Political Science and to further my ambition in running for office and widening my horizon I am moving to Utah.... Wait what???  Yes I said it.  I am moving to Utah.  I have an internship with the governor (HOPEFULLY!) and I will also be able to be around my family more.  I am anxious to go now that I have made the decision and I will be trekking across the country yet again in 19 days.  I have grown to LOVE Kansas and the people but I need a break from the repetitive nature of my life here.  I will miss it but I have opportunities in many areas of life in Utah that are not available here.  I trust my Heavenly Father that this decision will lead to my life being better or someone else's life being made better.  Until next time lovelies!
