Even Rocky can get festive for Groundhog's Day!Yesterday was Groundhog’s Day, and for people that have been reading my blog for a while, you know that that is actually a holiday in our household!
Adam and I have been together forever it seems now! :) He, being the cute and funny person that he thinks he is, decided to start calling Groundhog’s day his favorite holiday back at the beginning of college sometime. Then me, being the Elementary School Teacher type person, decided to celebrate it!
Though I’d never excluded Adam from Valentine’s Day, it really does have a tendency to focus on the girl in relationships. So… he gets Groundhog’s Day, and I get Valentine’s Day! Works out rather nicely!
I always try to somewhat incorporate the Groundhog’s predictions around his gifts. This year, that darn Groundhog saw his shadow and is predicting more winter. But, I decided the upside of that is that it gives us 6 more weeks to get ready for spring and summer clothing!
We’re both making an effort to get back into the swing of things food and exercise wise. So for this year’s theme… I decided he had 6 more weeks of Workout time to get ready for his Hot Summer Bod!! :)
For Dinner…. I picked up one of his favorite Subs from Firehouse Subs. A much healthier choice than his usual Long John Silver’s pick! What can I say? He’s easy to please! :)
For Dessert…. Nothing cake, cookie, or double chocolate huge dessert this year! Nope, I bought some fresh strawberries and some dark chocolate dipping sauce. It wasn’t completely guilt-free, but the chocolate was dark which is good for you, it wasn’t that bad on the calorie budget, and we threw away the rest so there are no leftovers to haunt us!
Some Red Wine!
And for his gift…. Some new gym shorts so he’ll be looking all “Hot” at the gym while he works out! J And some free weights for us to use at home so even when he can’t make it to the gym in our crazy, busy life, he can still do some strength stuff at home. He does live with a USAT coach and Personal Trainer!
Hope all of you had a wonderful Groundhog’s Day!!

Why do I always end up reading about food when I am hungry??? Oh well maybe hungry = fast!
