Please Vote: Jeff versus Sara

We have both accepted the challenge to shred our bodies in preparation for the summer and Jillian Micheals from Biggest Loser is going to help us! I purchased her 30 Day Shred video a few weeks ago in a personal attempt to lose the remaining few pesky pounds from the pregnancy! The workouts are 20 minutes once a day, but they are TOUGH!
Jeff and I will be doing the 30 Day Shred for 5 weeks. Jeff's goal is to lose 15 pounds in that five weeks. My goal is to lose 10 pounds. We have been working out for one week and we both have lost three pounds.
So now, here is the big question! Who will meet their goal first? Who will shed the pounds the quickest?
Before you vote, there are some things to keep in mind. First, I am closer to my goal weight than Jeff and we all know those last few pounds are the hardest. Men generally lose weight faster than women. However, I am scrappy and thus far I am neck and neck with Jeff.
It is up to you to decide! VOTE FOR THE CONTESTANT YOU THINK WILL WIN!!

Two Awesome Birthdays

So I know that I haven't posted in awhile, but we have been super busy partying! Sydney turned one on January 29th and Jeff turned 26 on February 10th. Sydney's birthday lasted almost a week with a record of four birthday parties...yes that is what I said! It was ridiculous! On her actual birthday, she had a small party with her ward playgroup friends: Livvy, Sophie, and Kaydince. Then we headed north to work our way south, starting at Grandpa Jensen's, followed by Grandma Kellersberger's, and finishing with Grandpa Aird's. I won't even attempt to write the exhaustive list of gifts that Sydney received, let's just say she isn't bored. Then my handsome husband and I celebrated his birthday by going out to dinner at the Outback and buying a scale to start our Biggest Loser 30 day shred competition. (More details about this exciting event are to come!) I gave Jeff a briefcase and a bunch of treats to take to the Jazz game against the Lakers, courtesy of my mom. He left early evening the next day to meet his brother and dad for dinner, where he received a lovely set of wireless headphones and an amazing meal, then went to the game with Steve where "they had the time of their lives!" (Once again Steve you are welcome!) Jeff also received an unbelievable gift from his brother Rob, if you would like to find out what it is...watch the video below!
I LOVE THESE GUYS! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Sydney's First Birthday Hippo T-Shirt


My attempt at a Hippo Cake! I think it scared her because she wouldn't touch it.


She really loved this safari animal quilt made by her Aunt Meagan! We have to pull it out everyday to play on it!
