Silly mommy

Last night I got to spend some much needed time with friends. A girlfriend of mine is a makeup artist and last night she needed a character model for her Media Makeup class... initially I was going to be made into a vampire BUT when I got there it was actually a zombie. It was fun to just be out doing a ton of nothing around girls and gay men. Sitting there made me miss modeling and really made me want to push to do it again and follow my dreams. I have wanted to model for pretty much my whole life... then I gave it up and not totally sure why. I know that Grant wouldn't have wanted me to or made me, I know that I don't want Krystina to ever give up on hers so I guess I need to teach by doing and not by the old 'Do as I say not as I do' mentality.


With that being said, I am going to really push to get my body back where I want it... healthy, not waif like. I want to be toned but not lose too much of my weight (honestly only about 2-4lbs MAX) and just add some muscle and I would be happy. I love my family and never want to take away from my family time or my family dynamic because I love what Grant, Krystina and I have but I don't ever want to wonder, 'What if..."






Here are some pictures of my Zombie transformation from last night...

Oh my goodness that is intense!!!!

And, yes, you should follow your dreams...

I think sometimes without anybody even telling us to, we as a mom and/or a wife, put our own desires and wants on the back burner... until pretty soon it feels like a lifetime ago that we were being true to our own self. The funny thing is.... it's us telling us to not move forward in the direction of our dreams... clearly our family would be there 100% supporting us.

The key is balance... ha! I'll let you know if I ever figure out how to make that word happen. ;)

Good Luck to you in following your dreams with modeling! I look forward to pictures down the road...
