Memories

While cleaning I have found several items!  Lots of pictures!  I found this picture from Christmas 2005!  
What a great picture of Brit, Nan and myself!  Love you more!


Friday February 14

So I realized this morning I forgot to get Memphis a Valentine's Day shirt this year!  Good thing he has a few red shirts!
We do not have big plans for Valentine's Day.  We are going to order out from Olive Garden (since we have a gift card) and enjoy a nice dinner at home with the 3 of us (Noah is with his mom tonight).
This is mine and Memphis' selfie for Valentine's Day! 

Monday February 10-My Random Thoughts

So I just have a lot of random thoughts racing through my mind lately!  One of them being, how do I get back on track to losing weight or even just back into shape?  I mean seriously, I did so well when I did Kosama, but now don't want to join again because of the time, class doesn't start for me until 4:15pm (this would be the only time that would come close to working for me), means I don't get home until almost 5:30.  Now I know some of you are thinking, seriously, I do not even get off work until then.  I get it, but I am off at 3:30 and my family is hungry at 5:30 or sooner for dinner (we are early eaters on most nights because of the kiddos).  So I am pretty sure that if I want to get back into shape I need to join something.  So this time through I am going to try Farrell's Extreme Body Shaping.  Pretty much kick boxing and resistance training.  Kick boxing was my favorite at Kosama so that is a bonus and class starts at 3:45 much better time for me and I am home by 5pm and dinner can be ready by 5:30 on most nights!!!
Gosh, I have been running this through my head over and over again and last night I was talking to Sara and said I just need to do something to kick start me being healthy again.  I hope this is it.  I enjoy working out once I get into the routine, so come March (or that is when I think the next class starts) I will be back at it.  Until then, time to get back on track with my healthier eating!
Well one thing can now quit running through my mind!  Trust me there are several more items to be discussed...that may come later!
For now, enjoy the week ahead and I will do my best at getting some more pictures on here of those cute kids of mine!



Sunday February 9

Well we finally got our act together enough to all get to church!  It was nice to get the boys to Sunday School (thankfully Peggy helps us out there, as her and Noah enjoy some time together before Sunday School as they go to breakfast and then they swing by and get Memphis)!

Most pictures look like this since Memphis stands still for about 1 second!

So I bribed him and told him if he wanted to go to Grandma and Grandpa's he has to take a picture!  It worked!

Monday February 3

Today we decided that it was time to bring back out Monday night meals that Grandma Palmer always had.  A couple of changes though: one Monday a month and at our house!
It was a lot of fun, I made waffles and bacon.  I tried my best to make them like grandma's but they didn't turn out like hers at all.  I even used the same dang recipe!  All in all our first Monday night dinner was great!
After dinner, Memphis wanted to take a bath and I told him he could when everyone leaves.  So he walks away and goes and gets everyone their shoes so that they can leave!  LOL!  He even knew whose shoes when to who, man that kid is with it (but as Chris said feet are at his level)!

The only picture I got!  At least it was a good one!

Saturday February 1

This afternoon we headed out to watch Zach play some basketball!  He was so much fun to watch and he scored 4 baskets!  He is getting pretty good at shooting and watching him dribble was a sight, he keeps the ball low to the ground and dribbles (let me tell you, no one will be able to steal the ball)!
I kept thinking that Memphis was doing so well watching Zach...well that came to an end quickly because he didn't care for sitting and couldn't understand why he couldn't play basketball himself.  Gosh maybe I will have a basketball player on my hands!

By the way I was never able to get a picture of Zach shooting!
Hands up and ready to go! 


Taking a breather!

Friday January 31

Tonight we all headed down to Creston for Tyler and Tori's grand opening of Hanson Fitness!  What a success it was.  They had lots of people come in and sign up for a membership and then a few even signed up for personal training!
I couldn't be happier for my brother and Tori, we wish them all of the success in the world!
Outside of the fitness center!

Busy at work signing people up!  Tori's salon is on the other side of the wall that is behind them!  Wasn't able to get any pictures but will next time!

The inside.
