DIY FATHERS DAY FOR ONLY $10.00!!!

This father's day is EXTRA special because it is Ryan's first fathers day:) We'll be doing the usual fam bam time this weekend with dinner and shopping but I also wanted to give him a personal gift from Aubriella- this is what I came up with :) Hope he LOVES it!

Step one: Purchase lettering from local craft store, we got ours at Hobby Lobby.



 
Step two: Put baby is SUPER cute outfit and place somewhere with a neutral background :) We used her light pink rocking chair in her nursery-so she could be propped up

Step three: Take pictures with the 'D' and 'A' the more candid the better!

 
 
 
 
 
 
Step four: Print your pictures out and buy a frame. We did all this at Target- my FAV one stop obsession. Frame found here:Target Frame

Good morning sunshine :)

 
Can we talk about the FIRST thing I thought of this morning? Dead serious- What does Lindsay Lohan and Amanda Bynes feel like when they wake up? I mean, I know how I felt this morning after only having ONE glass of wine last night! That combined with my grand total of 4 hours of sleep (TY Aubri) made for a STRUGGLE this morning. I mean I don't know how those girls even manage to move after drinking ALL night...sounds like way too much work if you ask me :)
 
Praise the Lord for Starbucks!
 
On a happier note, us function members of society get to enjoy the beautiful day today- because we are not in bed all day hung over:) woohoo! Hope you have a FAB Monday!!!

Weekend Recap!
 
I can't believe how fast this weekend flew by! We had a whole lot scheduled this weekend...
On Saturday ALL 3 of us completed the UCSD Triton 5k, Aubriella did fantastic! She completed her first race:) The race was a total of 3.2 miles. Ryan ran with the stroller, so he was a little behind me in time, but over all I ran a 7:50 pace. (which is a personal record for me! woohoo!) My favorite way to spend family time-being active!
 
Alisha: running shirt Kohls, shorts kohls, shoes Nike 
Ryan: shirt Nike, jacket Asics, shoes Asics





We rocked it!

TGIF!

Today is laundry/cleaning day in the Broguiere home- yea! I actually enjoy cleaning, I might be considered OCD because I find it therapeutic. Maybe I just need some more hobbies lol.
 
Before we could get to all the chores, we had to take a moment to play this morning- how precious is this smile?!
 


 
 
 
 
 
Now, we also had time to make a new headband this morning, which will be on my ETSY shop this afternoon, woohoo!

Long Beach Marathon 2013

Like running? No?
Neither did I, so you might be surprised to hear I have ran a marathon. I NEVER thought I would be able too, I totally disliked running! And now I am addicted. My husband encouraged me to run with him-which we will get to that another day- (He is super fast and I am...well, more steady)  However, we start training for the Long Beach Marathon this week!!! It will be my 2nd full marathon and his 4th!!! I will post my FULL 18 week training schedule this week, incase anyone wants to join in.
 
You may like it once you get going :) Good Luck racers!! xo

Weekend RECAP

We survived our weekend away from baby Brella. Well, 26 hours to be exact:) I can't tell you how AMAZING the resort was. We used every last amenity this fabulous place had to offer. The cool 109 degrees made for a little sweat at the pool, but my ice cold Vodka Tonic balanced me out. The room, the food, the service, the gondola ...I could go on and on, if you are in the Palm Springs area it's a MUST to stay at! OR, at least eat there...the tepan grill chef actually flings shrimp into your mouth, no fork required-sign me up!
 
Aside from all this fabulous-ness, I must say I am now apart of the 'I have been apart from my baby group!' Feels good and I can now check it off my list, because I wont be leaving Aubriella again for 10 years lol. Do you remember your first night away from your baby!? I feel like no one can do my job like I can ( even if my amazing parents were watching her )
 
That being said, for my OWN comfort I created a emergency and how to binder and packing system for Aubriella's overnight stay, which I will share on my next DIY post. For now, here are some happy pictures of this beautiful place, enjoy :)
