Easter Sunday!

Family days are so important to me. Growing up I didn’t understand the significance and value of having a close family. Immaturely I would interpret my parents’ love as overbearing. But now as a young adult I couldn’t thank my parents enough for the care and support they’ve shown me my whole life. My sisters and I look out for each other too because we know only one rule – family first. Sounds like a mafia coined term, but then again that’s probably why they call us the UMOFIA!

Easter wouldn’t be complete without an easter egg hunt! I’m a little embarrassed to admit that I STILL partake in an Easter Egg Hunt put on by my parents.  I look forward to it every year – as my mom and dad always come up with new ways of making it better. To all the nay-sayers out there – there’s nothing wrong with having fun with each other. And it’s great exercise! Sprinting from one end of the backyard to the other when one of my parent’s yells out a clue about the blood orange tree having something shiny in it – I sprint across the lawn as fast as I can!! Hope you all had a nice Easter too!

I hope you enjoyed that. I love being able to connect with you over something that I'm so passionate about. Everyday I workout and stretch, and I hope to inspire you to do the same, even if it's just 15 minutes. Live the life of your dreams, and keep your body where your soul lives healthy. Remember that you workout because you love your body, not because you're trying to change it. Please check-in and leave a comment below so I know that you've read it, and let me know if there's anything else you want to learn about.
