Why Do we Call It Christmas?

Why Do we Call it Christmas
Is a GREAT DVD for Families trying to teach their kids about Christmas and the history behind it.
It can be confusing to kids with Santa and Jesus and all the commercialism.
This is a awesome DVD.


Enjoy!
Just been busy I'll start blogging and updating soon.
I recently did the Peppermint brownies in a jar from iheartnaptime.
SO CUTE!

The big 40 and Dieting

Hi.
So this is a random, but candid post on the above.
Is it just me or does our (we as women) bodies change as we get near FORTY?
Okay maybe it is just me.
Anyway, I've chosen to fight it and fight it hard the last couple months.
I'm really determined.
How determined.
Well we have been married fifteen years and never owned a scale, so for starters I went out and bought a scale and it is in my room now.
This is serious.
I want to be healthy and strong for not just me, but the whole family.
I was feeling yucky and nothing was fitting right.
I was getting headaches every afternoon.
SOOOOO.
Like I said before I made some big changes.
I decided I just can't get away with eating poorly anymore.
I also decided I will not read any health books or dieting books.
I mean really after all these years and classes I know what I need to do.
If I'm honest.
So these are my rules that I posted on the frig:)
ASK GOD FOR STRENGTH
NO SUGAR
(or very little, big goal, but baby steps here.)
NO ALCHOL
VERY LITTLE CARBS
EAT BEFORE 6PM
EXERCISE A LOT
EAT LOTS OF VEGGIES
GUM IN AFTERNOONS

And you know these are working for me.
I'm so pleased so far.
My headaches and overall feeling is so much better.
I feel good and I'm starting to loose weight.
I've got eight more pds to go to my realistic healthy goal.
How are you doing?
You can do it too.

Since we are going through Proverbs as a family my latest favorite is and this is the NIV Adventure Bible.

"My son, hold on to good sense and the understanding of what is right. Don't let them out of your sight. They will be life for you. They will be like a gracious necklace around your neck. Then you will go on your way in safety. You will not trip and fall, When you lie down you won't be afraid When you lie down you will sleep soundly."

Proverbs 3: 21-24
