Avocado Spread with a Kick from Ashley Grimwade:

If you’re like me, you see avocados in the store, and know they have many health benefits, but you aren’t sure how you will use it in your meals:

Here is a great recipe for a yummy, healthy Avocado Spread
1 medium, ripe avocado
2/3 cup white cannellini beans- rinsed and drained
2 sprigs of cilantro
1 ½ Tbs lime juice
1 green jalapeno- sliced and chopped with seeds removed. Add less if you don’t want as much of a kick!
½ tsp green Tabasco sauce
¼ tsp salt
In a blender- combine all ingredients until smooth and creamy!
Spread on sandwiches, chips, crackers or veggies!
The best part: Only 80 calories per 3-4 tablespoon!!!

Ethan's Kindergarten Picnic


Here are the pictures I took at Ethan's Kindergarten picnic 2 days before school let out for the summer.  This child of mine is too cute for his own good.  I'm sure I wouldn't stick a camera in his face all the time if he wasn't.  Or, maybe I would anyway just because he's mine and I love him.

The picnic was held at a nearby park with a great play structure.  The kids had TONS of fun!!

How can you resist this cuteness?

The two of us!

I think this is where his patience for the camera wore out...

Turbo Friday... Turbo Saturday... Turbo EVERY DAY!!

Friday I dropped the boys off at my sweet in  laws house and set off to meet some new Beachbody friends that I had never actually met face to face before!  We've only been talking and communicating for the last 6 months or so, but we live all over the Midwest and can't easilty get together.  This was a special weekend though.  Jenelle Summers, my upline sponsor, invited all of her coaches and all of our coaches to come down to Toledo for a group workout on Friday night and a meeting at her house afterwards.  To follow up that bit of fun, today was Turbo for a Cause at the University of Toledo... Ummm heeelllloooo... I'm Turbo Crazy!!


This was only a third of our class Friday night! We needed a panoramic camera to fit us all in!

It was so much fun meeting and hanging out with these ladies!  We had a great time at the workout Friday night, we were sooo sweaty when we were done, but I think we were still cute!



Gotta love the traditional "Turbo Pose"!!

After the workout we went back to the hotel, showered and ate some good grub and the went over to Jenelle's looking like a bunch of hot ladies! haha!! Did I mention the part about having fun??

Tons of fun!! Lots of laughing! More sweat than EVER before!!

And whoa... it didn't end there!  Today was Turbo For a Cause! Check it out....
