Waco Weekend & Whole30

I went to law school at Baylor, so Waco holds a special place in my heart. One of the main reason is because of my 2 dear friends Lara and Breyer. They got me through some tough times during those 3 years and I am eternally grateful to them. So, I was thrilled when our schedules coordinated for a weekend visit back to Waco.  We had such a great time! Olivia absolutely loved Breyer's twin boys - Kyle and Kase. She thought everything they said/did was hilarious! We also tried out the Waco zoo which is an absolute hidden gem.

She also held her own with the boys and at times seemed to be too rough for them!

Matt and I also came away with a new understanding of food after Lara and Breyer told us about how much they loved the Whole 30 Program.  After much discussion on Paleo and the Whole30 program, we were very curious.  So, starting May 1, we are going to take the challenge ourselves. I’m pretty anxious because my daily diet includes a lot of dairy, grains, peanuts, (and added sugar if I’m being honest), but I am very interested in seeing if it really will change the way we think about food, our tastes, our habits and our cravings, especially as Olivia gets older and begins her own relationship with food.  If I had to guess, I’d say this is going to be a tough 30 days for me, but I’m determined. Wish us luck!
