Santa bought some presents...

That you KNOW Mrs. Clause would

NEVER purchase.

(because she likes her checks round lol!!)

I think THIS year SANTA

went A LITTLE ABOVE AND BEYOND

BEsides our LIVING room being from head to toe with boxes, that old man got me a LITTLE annoyed.

Lets SEE what DID Santa BRING this year

FOr ME:

WII FIT,

WII ACTIVE

 REEBOX EASY TONE BUTT SHOES

YOGA BALL (a new one because well mine was popped by Santa's helper)

I can truly GOOOO onnnn.......

THE BEST PART IS ...I DIDN'T ASK FOR IT!

I WILL BE USING THOSE SIGNS!

and if I don't....I am sure they will be laying by my bedroom door as a reminder

; )

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS THIS WEEKEND? Do you have the easy tone shoes??

* I plan on exercising and well football! Also, those easy tone shoes i love i wear them to Disneyland (double workout maybe?)

I AM thankful though we were able to get those gifts....just it was A LOT to take at once

(just in case your readying hubby I love you.....and will get you next year!)

breakfast:

Cottage Cheese (90 calories)

and a Cup of Coffee (that's a given!)

If the SHOE fits...doesnt mean

you should wear it without SOCKS.

I decided to wear my Flats kinda like these:

(I love Kate Moss's flats!)

AND

for some reason ....

Once I put mine ON they started to SMELL...

NOT a nICE feeling... I am thinking I SHOULD have not been cheap and got those $3 socks they offer for these types of shoes...

I would save the OFFICe from WOnderING where that SMELL is coming from..

OOps.
