Family charity wallk

Our family participated in a 1 mile walk for a local man who is struggling with lukemia. It was a nice way to encourage the habit of exercise as well as teaching them about doing charity work. Here we are at the begining...

Marathon time!!!

Aqeel competed in his second marathon this year! He won first place, of course he was the only one who competed in the full marathon, but still he made pretty good time 5hrs and 10mins. Here are some pics we took around mile 25...

I like how you can see Amaya's head poking out of the car watching him run! She and Jr were cheering him on from the car for the last mile. It was really cute!

FHE - gardening style!

We had a lesson on service and all pitched in to help beautify our home...

Week fifteen

I have been continuing my training but I haven't been blogging about them because life has been chaotic. Between packing up a house, moving into another, and finals for spring term these past four weeks have been crazy. Also, my scale broke so I don't have any idea what I weight, but based on how my clothes fit I would say I haven't lost any weight. The past two weeks I have only trained two days, which is horrible, but these weeks were the ones that I was unpacking and packing. The two weeks before that I completed my daily workouts every day!!! I am now back on my workouts and my food plan so here's to starting back!!!

gum

When I take the boys to the grocery store I put Ayron in the baby seat on the top of the basket and Jr inside the basket. This makes it much easier for me as I don't have to chase Jr around the store. However, it has its drawbacks as well. While in the store recently Jr decided to stick his gum in his brothers hair while I wasn't looking. thankfully Ayron has enough hair that you can't tell where I had to cut it out.
