About Me

Olathe, Kansas, United States
My name is Rebecca DeMoss-Koeneke and I am originally from Iowa City, Ia, that is why I say I am an Iowa girl at Heart... I have lived in the KC metro area for almost 20 years. Since moving to KC, I married the most wonderful man in the world, Trey. For 3 years, he was a stay at home dad. Which was great for me. But in late 2010 he went back to work. That has been nice too, but required a lot of change on my part... I have two awesome kids. Peyton 7 and Emily 4. And 9 year old Border Collie Lab mix named Sinjin..... This blog will be for me to document several different things.... first of all my goal at a more healthy life. In March of 08 I began a new chapter of my life. I quit some bad habits and started Weight Watchers and working out. March 08 started out at 200lbs. By March 09 I had lost 30 lbs... In September of 09 I ran my first Triathlon. 2. I will also post updates about my family including pictures.... Unfortunately in 2010 I gained a lot of weight back, so 2011 will be another year of getting that weight off. My goal is to loose 30 lbs. Also in 2011 I am going to participate in more tris, dus and half marathons...

Iowa Hawkeye Homecoming weekend

Well - I will be taking a break from any major posts about loosing weight and will probably just post this and that type stuff....

This past weekend, the kids and I went up to Iowa City... While I partied, the kids got to hang with their aunts and uncles.....

When I say I partied, I mean I partied hard... Friday I had probably 4-5 doubles of 7 and 7... inbetween a 3 1/2 hour period... I started at 8 and was done at 11:45 - had to get home to relieve my aunt connie from thet kids.... Saturday I got the pleasure of hanging with my cousin Jared again and we went out to dinner together.. then after dinner, I got to hang around my girlfriends... and a couple of old guy friends as well...

I also got to see and quickly talk to Tim Dwight - which was just so cool... I still think it is funny just how damn tiny he is - I am sure he was bigger when he was playing in the NFL.....

Well - I hope that I can say that this was just the first of my going home trips for Iowa homecoming games... Maybe next year I can start making it an annual thing... I can only hope.
