Grocery shopping is where healthy eating and thus healthy living begins. If you don’t have the right foods in your house—think apples and string cheese for snacking over cheetos and chips ahoy—then chances are you won’t be making the right choices when hunger (or a craving) strikes. If you want to look and feel your [...]

I was finally able to get a good night’s sleep last night so that I could get up by 6 to start the morning and most importantly, to meet the Lord. Over the weekend I had really gotten off track of spending time with the Lord, and the inevitable result was and always is a [...]

It was fun to hang out with family last night. We barbequed hot dogs, corn on the cob, and baked beans all at the park! We had sugar snaps, grape tomatoes and fresh cherries pre-dinner and Mom brought homemade peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for dessert. The only downside was the wind! It was crazy [...]

The recital was beautiful! Olivia did a great job and the girls danced so well! It was sweet of Teranne to be my date! We went to coffee before the recital, which was dinner for me. I brought a peanut butter and jelly on whole grain bread and ordered a nonfat iced white mocha. For [...]

Because the outdoor pools don’t open until mid-June, we opted to go to the indoor pool in East Wenatchee, the only problem was that it was brimming with kids laughing, screaming, and splashing water. This was a bit overwhelming for our little swimmer and she just sat there huddled in mom’s arms with big crocodile [...]

Here are a few cute pics from when Alli and her friend Matt came to vist a few weeks back. Teranne and Niek came up and we met at McGlinns for a yummy dinner of stonefire pizzas and salad. I wish we could do this every week, but a few hundred miles between us makes [...]

Yay for 3-day weekends!! We are going to try to go to the pool around 11 to do a little swimming with Emma! I can’t wait to see her in the water this year-she is such a water baby and is going to love it! It will be cute to see her in her swimsuit [...]

Today was a really fun and social day. It started out with a coffee date with Andrea on the patio of Coffee Cabin, which is beautiful I might add! Then after my errands Teranne and I met up for a nice, very warm walk and chat, followed by a grocery trip to Costco. Emma ate a [...]

I strolled Emma around this afternoon running errands. We started at Great Harvest where we bought some honey wheat rolls for lunch, stopped at the post office to mail a few packages, ran to target to pick up some gifts and toiletries, then to the courthouse and finally home for Emma’s nap. For lunch I [...]

Steve and I had a really nice morning together. I decided last night that I would make pancakes for breakfast, as I don’t think I’ve been feeding my man well enough lately! Men apparently don’t thrive on salad, cereal, and toast, so I’m trying to work on that and think of what he would like [...]
