Why I Run & A Warm Glow

This is why I run, do Insanity workouts, and go to the gym:

This doesn't really do justice to the cookies we made last night.  This is just a fraction.  The table you can kind of see in the top left corner...yea...that too was covered in cookies being decorated.  We had a great time last night!  After next week, I will be banned from sweets for a couple months.  Until our snowboard trip I've decided.  I can't handle all the sugar anymore!!  But, Christmas to me isn't quite complete without decorating some sugar cookies :)


The Warm Glow:
So...
I'm tired of my white, white winter legs.  Most of the year, I carry a decent tan, but when it gets cold the jeans come out and bye bye tan.  I want to look into getting some type of self tanner that adds a nice glow of color to my skin.  Especially since it will just be warming up when the wedding gets here.  I'm just nervous about the orange look I've heard about and the streaks.  Any advice on a good brand to buy or how to avoid the orange skin and streaks??  Any advice would be appreciated!!

Oh, yea, and...
100 days until the wedding!!!  
Tomorrow we will be in DOUBLE DIGITS! What?! 

Happy Thursday Bloggy Friends!  We're almost to FRIDAY!!

I use Bath & Body Words self tanner its awesome and then this bottle you can find on the web called Fake Bake is supposed to be good AND I LOOOVE spray tans!! Do you have a Sun Tan City nearby? If so the I reccommend a Versa Spa!! It lasts 7-10 days!

Definitely recommend the Versa Spa--there is one at the South Beach on 436 by Chipotle--it's the best spray booth that doesn't turn you orange!! Also, I agree with the foam tanning products--they leave less streak. Another trick when applying any self-tanner, use a lotion (Jergens natural glow would be nice!) along with the tanner when applying it...that way there won't be ANY streaks anddd won't glop up on any creases (like your elbows and knees!) :)
