Muscle Mayhem and Kona Grill

Hi!!!

Wow, I haven't posted on a week day in a long time! (It's been too long, I know). How was everyone's weekend? Hopefully good. Erik and I had a fun one.

On Saturday night we went to a figure/fitness/bodybuilding competition, Muscle Mayhem, in Kansas City. Since Erik used to bodybuild and actually be in shows (when I didn't yet know him), and since I've never been to any bodybuilding show before, it was interesting to see what he actually did. It gave me more of a perspective on it. It was definitely an experience, I haven't been around the whole bodybuilding thing much, but I'm glad we went. I like doing things I've never done before!
Anyways, it was a lot of fun and it made me want lift more! haha. We've been lifting together now just about every night and I'm starting to get muscles ... woo hoo! ; ) I didn't take any pictures but here is a video of one of the guest Pro posers:
And before the show, we of course had to stop by Kona Grill for some sushi!And here is what I just finished drinking ... the best post workout shake in the world made by the best husband in the world! (yep, that's my husband ; ) There hasn't been much food on my blog lately, mostly becuase I haven't been making anything exciting, ha. Lately, we're all about fast and easy and our meals have consisted mostly of chicken breasts and lean ground turkey (but we like it!). I got my Clean Eating magazine recently though so maybe I'll have to make something fun out of it sometime soon? We shall see!

And last but not least ... some random pictures to end with.
Erik just about ready to do some benchin', aaaaaaand Adrian looking out the window:
Hope you've all had a wonderful start to your week!!

And Delmar, if you're reading this ... HI! and, no, I still can't believe Erik said that ; )

  4. Wow, I can't believe your hubby used to be a body builder. He's already so big and muscley-y as it is! I imagine he's always been a nice guy though...a "gentle giant" of sorts!
