Fitness Find: Rollerskating

Get out your neon and fanny packs!  The weather is getting warm and I'm looking for all kinds of ways to enjoy the outdoors and mix up my workouts!  Sooo I'm back in the 80s with one of my favorite childhood past-times... rollerskating! 

I used to spend hours on my skates... up and down the driveway, into the street, up and down my neighbor's driveways.  I loved it.  And I still do.  So last year I decided that it had been way too long since I owned a pair.  It's time to bust them out!

Chris had a day off... it was sunny and warm... I wanted to get out of the house and be ACTIVE... enter rollerskating in the park!  This can seriously be an amazing workout!  It helps with your balance and coordination, and you really feel muscle toning in your legs and butt!  And of course, it's fabulous cardio!  Mr. Wilbur got a pretty good workout too!  I was surprised how much he enjoyed it.  I definitely plan to spend more sassy spring days rollin' down the sidewalk ;-)

Spring in my step

Yesterday DFW hit the hottest temperature it's been since November 17... and it was GLORIOUS!  I'm not exactly wanting constant 80-something degrees from now on (I would like an actual Spring, please, dear Texas) but after a winter of up and down and ice and snow, I'm ready to be warm!!

As I sit here watching the drizzle outside my window, I'm even more thankful that I had some time to make it to the park yesterday with my boys (along with the entire city... I've never seen it so crowded there!)  Chris, Wilbur and I watched the sunset in Trinity Park as we enjoyed an evening walk together.  As usual, my exercise suffered as I stopped every few feet to take a picture.  With all of this wedding planning lately, I haven't had a lot of time for one of my favorite things: photography!

So here's a few of my favorite shots from yesterday!  I love my Funkytown!!
