Welp it’s officially been a year. We love this state.
LOVE IT.
Can’t beat the beautiful weather, the beaches, the yummy frozen yogurt on every corner. Our dog, Jack Bauer James, loves it too. His allergies cleared up when we arrived in CA.
After Brook and I got married we fell into the statistic of people who gain weight after marriage. Yikes. When I look back at pictures of us from when we left Texas, I cringe just a bit. But once we arrived, we decided to jump into the healthy California lifestyle. Brook dropped around 35 pounds, and I lost 15! Of course then I got pregnant and have gained all that back!
FAT (Nov. ‘08) SKINNY (June ‘09)
So thank you California for helping us get healthy again. My husband is SEXY!!!!!!

Now if we could just get Jack Bauer to join in on the healthy lifestyle and lose some weight, we would be good! Thanks for moving out here with me!

Oh Kara, I love the pictures that you post.. I want you to know that you are not fat,, you are pregnant.. there is such a difference.. please know that I know the struggles with up and down and up and down,,, but you have the cutest belly I have ever seen, and just when you thought you could not get any bigger you are going to get bigger,, but remember it is that sweet baby girl, growing and getting everything she needs.. I also know that just when I feel like I cant help but be sad at how many times I have lost my body.. I look at my sweet baby faces and I look up and smile.. It is all worth.. .Never ever forget…
love you..

My husband I and I graduated from O-State. When we moved to NH from OK he lost 30 lbs cause he had a little more free time to start working out more. I’ve been able to keep my same weight cause I hate the food here.
I know it’s not good for the figure but that OK BBQ is soooo good!
