Birthday Photos, My Volleyball Hero, and Giveaway Winners

July 18, 2014 | family, fitness, holidays

Last Sunday was my birthday, and I was lucky enough to get to spend it at my parents house with my family, and my friend Karen and her husband Jason were in town for my baby shower, so it made it even more fun!

Bobby decorated with the same posters we use every year…

The four of us friends went to the Broke Egg for breakfast, a tradition whenever they come into town.

I am so glad my friends came into town and were on hand to help me celebrate my last year in my 20’s!

ASICS has posted a training tips blog post featuring Kerri Walsh Jennings! She is my favorite volleyball player, and has some great tips! Currently, there are two exercises, with a video for each.  2-3 new videos will be published each week leading up to the 2014 ASICS World Series of Beach Volleyball on July 22nd through July 27th where Kerri will be competing. The first two videos lean a bit towards volleyball, but there will be more videos shortly that are applicable to general fitness.

Also, ASICS is hosting a giveaway for an ASICS training gear package!

    Looks like a great birthday! I love cake in all shapes and sizes, so I don’t have to have a specific one each year, but I do love a good funfetti, red velvet or strawberry cake.

    That cake looks delicious! My grandmother makes me a home made strawberry shortcake for my birthday every year. Although she’s not baking much anymore so I might just have to make it together with her from now on. But that’s ok 🙂 I hope you had a wonderful birthday and have a great weekend!

    Yum! That cake looks amazing! My family usually gets me the chocolate ganache cake from Publix. I’m a sucker for anything with a creamy chocolate icing on it!
