Our Biggest Loser fanatics

-
The kids and I watched Biggest Loser again last night. We don't usually watch TV (since 24 ended), and only watch select tv programs on Netflix or DVD. We are pretty spoiled to never see commercials and have to wait until the next week to see what is going to happen next - until now. Anyway, we enjoyed the show and the kids are always so fascinated with this show. They put on work out clothes, do sit ups, push ups, act like trainers for each other, and of course weigh themselves over and over. Well last night, they decided to make healthy recipes with the participants on the show. The whole dining room table was complete with variety of fruits, veggies, yogurts, and condiments from my fridge. I managed to get a picture of Ashlyn's strawberry yogurt surprise before they realized I was taking blog pictures of them and they tried to hide my camera. This one is a low calorie delight (which Ashlyn loved, even though she didn't lose weight after her last minute workout last night!)

Merry Christmas from our crew to yours! We are thankful for 2024 and all that it brought to our family.

We had more ups than downs this year and are excited to see what unfolds in 2025. John and Deanna celebrated 26 years of marriage this year and were able to celebrate with an anniversary trip through four National Parks in CA and NV. It was an amazing trip and of course urges us to travel more this coming year while we are healthy enough to hike and have more time on our hands in this short season. Other family highlights of 2024 included seeing the Total Eclipse, watching the Chiefs win another Superbowl, and spending time together all six of us at home or on vacations together a few times this year.  John spent the last year continuing to volunteer with Partners Worldwide, his business mentor group, and our church, Bethel Baptist Church. He started a contrac...

The peer pressure of the internet

So I have been invited about 5 times to join Facebook this past year and it seems lately most of my adult friends are joining. I have been afraid to join, not because of the crazy psychos out there, but because I know the time I would lose once I joined. I keep going back and forth and am driving John crazy using his account all the time to email friends I haven't talked to for awhile. He keeps telling me to get my own account. He joined last year because his youth Sunday School Class was all on there and it was better for them to discuss and email through Facebook . He is just now using it to re-connect with other people or talk back and forth with KC friends here (he no longer teaches the youth at church). When my friend Sara joined she said her inbox was full of friend requests and how crazy it was to get requests from people she never really talked to back in high school. Is it rude to just decline those people or is the "cool" thing to just have a bunch of friend...
