Halloween Pics!

I hope you had a great Halloween! We did. I thought I'd share some photos of our Halloween with you. Tabitha was Super Girl, Samuel was the yellow Ninja, and Daniel was Megatron from Transformers. I thought they looked cute. The cutest was Caitlin who was a bumblebee!

Look who's back!

HI! Miss me? Probably not. I took a long break from blogging. I have missed it. I am happy to get back at it too.
This is my favorite time of year. I love Autumn! Don't you? The cooler temps, the beautiful, colorful leaves falling from the trees... and don't forget the good food!
I made some apple crisp the other night and it was so yummy. I may share some of my favorite fall time recipes on here. If you have any, share them with me!
We visited a local apple orchard with our homeschool group as a field trip. It was fun and we brought home some delicious apples! (hence the apple crisp)
I am keeping this post short on purpose. I am hoping I will still have followers that will read, but I know it will take me time to build my blog back up. If you are here and still reading, Thank You! I will post more and share recipes and pics. I hope to hold more contests as well. Hang in there with me!

Journey to a healthier me!

Well, I have been wanting to lose weight and get healthier for a long time now. I have made some progress too. I finally bought a juicer, a stand mixer, and a grain mill. The grain mill being the most important one. Now I can make sure we are really getting whole grains into our diet. But, I still struggle with being overweight and having health problems. Both my mom and my husband are diagnosed as diabetic. I don't want to join them! So, I signed up for Richard Simmons' Food Mover 2009 program, and joined a Curves gym. I am hoping with the diet and exercise 3days/wk that will do the trick. Can't hurt! I am taking a before picture (no you can't see it) So that when I have lost a measurable amount I can take an after picture and compare the two. I might share then. :) I also belong to an online community at Sparkpeople.com if you'd like to check that out as well. Join me! Everyone should work toward being healthier even if your not overweight.
Don't forget to put your entry in for the blog makeover contest before midnight tonight!! I will draw and announce a winner Tuesday morning! Sign up below by adding your comment. Good Luck!
