Is it too soon to start talking about how excited I am for fall? I don’t want to wish summer away, but I’m looking forward to the cooler weather, boots, changing colors, apple picking and all things pumpkin.
What a week of Fitness Health and Happiness looks like:
Life in the Conyers’ house? I’m back at work and adjusting to having a work week schedule again. My son moved onto campus and starts college classes this week. My daughter got her driver’s license. It’s been emotionally draining and exhilarating all that the same time.

HAPPINESS
We’re nearing the end of August and even though summer is coming to an end I’m ready for fall. The weather, fall fashion and beautiful colors of the season all make fall my favorite time of year. Boots and scarves, evening walks in the cool weather and this prAna Diva Vest. Also on my wish list from prAna, the Sabin T-Back Top and awesome Roxanne Printed Legging. You have to see the colors and pattern of the leggings! #legginglove
I’m joining prAna and Sweat Pink for a super fun, #7daystretch #liveinprana challenge – it starts today (Monday, August 24th) and ends at the end of the week (Sunday, August 30th).

And now I too have those leggings on my must have list! Darn prana and their super cute clothes!! I never wish for fall because it’s never here long in the south, we pretty much go from summer to winter, and this girl doesn’t love the cold 🙁
The only thing I like about fall is cozy sweaters and leather boots! Otherwise I’d rather just fast forward to summer again 🙂
oh I love LOVE fall – the colors, the activities, the clothes, except i need to be more fashionable this fall I think…maybe some Prana wear would help 🙂 LOVE THOSE LEGGINGS in the blue and green, but they would be better in pink!
To switching things up a tiny bit…setting some new goals…planning new business adventures…slowing down (which is the biggest and most important one)! xoxo
I’m looking forward to the #7daystretch challenge! I’m not really looking forward to the wind here in the fall, but the best thing about the changing season is the produce! We have an apple tree for the first time so we can’t wait to get some delicious apples off our tree 🙂
I am definitely looking forward to cooler weather. It’s been so hot in Arizona!
great post! i love all your affiliates, im all a fellow fitfluential ambassador! I loooove prana! and this 7 day stretch. I’ll try to chime in when I can 🙂
I’m ready for some cooler temps too for all the fall fun and to make running a bit easier. I’ve had my fill of hot and humid for a while. I do love Fall the best! Just everything about it!
I was thinking the same…apples and pumpkin! There is a local brewery that will be releasing a sweet potato beer in September. That should be interesting – perhaps similar to pumpkin.
Yeah Jill!
Love it! Thanks for the push to join in on the fun!
Looking good and this will be a fun challenge for the week- let’s get out stretch on! I am looking forward to the cooler weather and football 🙂
Love your daily menu!

What an awesome twitter weekly party! That is so amazing that you do this. I am curious for your recipe for the zucchini and spinach quesadilla. Care to share?
I’m not excited for cooler weather, but I am excited for the possibilities that come from a new season. There’s going to be big changes in our house. Can’t wait to see what unfolds!
I was just telling Angela that I’m most excited about cooler weather. I love running in the cold and you always feel so strong come fall ( although I haven’t run all summer- so pretty sure I’m not going to have that feeling) anyway, I love fall. It’s my favorite time of the year, it’s cool but not freezing, and of course who doesn’t get excited about Pumpkin flavored everything.
