Monster Mash!


On Halloween I competed in the bikini division of the NPC Monster Mash in Middletown, OH. I've lost about 15lbs of fat and toned my body into the best shape of my life! Over the past three and a half months I have literally worked my buns off :)

The competition was fun and I achieved my goals personally- even if I didn't win, so I am very happy with the outcome of this challenge. I really appreciate all the support from my family and friends - getting on stage was so much fun knowing that you were there to cheer me on!

It is usually the same kids sticking a finger in my face to show me that they are not bleeding and have no visible hangnails or papercuts. I, of course, am not a nurse and I don't keep bandaids, nor could I keep them if anyone found out I had a box.

Yes, I'm ready for Spring Break.

John made a fire in the fire place and I cooked dinner. Valentines Day fell on a Thursday which meant John had just finished some prints in his photo-lab. (John has a new hobby-photography. He is taking a photography class where you take and develop pictures and learn about perspective and art etc. ) After dinner, John handed me a stack of photos to sort through so he could show me what he has learned. I looked through a few and everything looked great until I saw a picture of John playing Scrabble. I laughed because it obviously didn't fit in with the rest, but I finally understood when I saw the next picture. It was a picture of his Scrabble board with the words "Jamie will you marry me". By the time I gasped and looked up, John was on one knee. He said the sweetest proposal and asked me again, "wil
