It's a SNAP!!

I just joined Snap Fitness!!

Last night was my first time there and man am I out of shape!

I am excited to start a new chapter in my life of taking care of myself, feeling better and looking better!

Can't wait to be

Cookie fun!

Please don't eat the dough!!

The kids had fun with this recipe.. we used neon food coloring so we all ended up with colorful hands!

Matthew cutting the cookies

The finished product! They are not as pretty as the ones in the recipe but we had a great time making them!

Brrrrrrr...It's cold outside! (24 degrees) I think we need some nice, warm cookies.. Last night Kelli and Matthew helped make Play Dough cookies http://sitsgirlsrecipes.blogspot.com/2008/09/somewhere-over-rainbow-by-little-momma.html

We only made the dough so far because it needed to be chilled for 2 hours. After school today we will be baking them.

MMMmmmmm......

Veterans Day

Thank you for serving and protecting our country

Is it still Halloween??

Yesterday the kids got to make a Haunted Castle that I picked up after Halloween on clearance.

It consisted of 4 cookie walls, very messy Black and Orange Icing, various candies and sprinkles. They had fun constructing and decorating it and enjoyed the leftover icing as it made their tongues black.

Monday, Monday

GOOD MORNING!!!

It's a beautiful, sunny Fall morning.

Incredible huh?

Just winding down the weekend and getting the kids ready for a new week of school.

Sentimental Saturday

My children

Rainy days

Smiles

Looking at old photographs

Warm blankets

The color green

Hugs

Surprises

Christmas morning

Music that brings back memories

Long lost friends

I am thankful for my family!

Thankful for my relationship with God!

Thankful for the roof over my head!

Thankful for healthy children!

Thankful for our country's freedom!

Thankful for the promise of each new day!

Wee little humor

What fish is the richest?

Hee Hee!

How to have a great day

Mind your manners, say please and thank you

Give hugs daily

Don't worry about tomorrow

Reflect on happy memories

Help someone out without them having to ask you

When doing household chores, be grateful you have a home to clean

Show thankfulness for even the little things others do for you

Surprise your family with little gifts to show you thought of them

Do special things to cherish the time with your family

Remember to thank God for blessings each day

God Bless America!
