Free Picture Keeper with MailPix Purchase | #photography #custom #mailpix
For a while now, Andy and I have been talking about backing up our pictures. After my last computer went kaput, I lost easy access to a lot of pictures that I now wish I could find easily. I have them, somewhere, but the question where? I love the Picture Keeper that Mailpix is offering as a free gift with purchase, because I am able to just plug it into my computer and automatically have a backup of all my pictures! The Picture Keeper is so easy to use. Plug in the Picture Keeper Open the Picture Keeper Program and…
LISTERINE 21 Day Challenge for Better Oral Health – We did it! | #listerine
We did it! We completed the Listerine 21 Day Challenge - and we loved it! As a matter of fact, we completed 21 days, and didn't even realize it! When I first started the Challenge, I have to admit that I never really had more than a brush-my-teeth kind of routine. I don't know if it's that I was just lazy about it, or if I didn't want to mess with it, but I would occasionally floss or swish with mouthwash if I'd just happened to see it sitting there. I never went out of my way to make sure…

Kylie’s First Track Meet | #Track Star #running
Kylie had her first track meet on Monday! Yes it was in the New Jersey Half Marathon. Although she had no idea what to expect, she did so well! I wish that they would let us move in closer for photos on the track, but we were pretty much bound to the stands. I did get video, but it wasn't that great, so this is the best I could do for a photo. She ran third leg on the 800m relay and she ran the 200m dash. The relay came in second, and Kylie came in first in her heat. We…
Phone call from principal made my heart drop!
As a mom of four, I want nothing else than to see my kids to well and succeed in school and life. It's often a struggle for the baby of the family to become the big brother, so we were really worried about how well Hawk would do when he started school this year. Surprisingly enough, he has been doing SO well. My little lazy, whiny, snaggle-toothed, mama's boy has amazed us all year long. At the last parent/teacher conference, his teacher told Andy that he's already exceeded all of the expectations for Kindergarten for the year (and it was…
Couch to 5k Day 3 – Week 1 COMPLETE! | #c25k #running #workout
Couch to 5k Day 3 was almost non-existent! On Saturday morning at 5:15am, which would have been Day 3, I got a call from a mama who was in labor. She rocked that labor, though, and had her baby, natural, by 8:07, and after I left the hospital, I went to see my bestie and her new baby! I didn't get home until 3pm, rested a little, and went to our Rode0-Cook Off at church. On Sunday, we had church and the finale of the Rodeo Cook-Off. When we got home, I crashed for 2 hours (blissful, uninterrupted sleep!) and…
Couch to 5k Day 2 | #c25k #running #workout
Couch to 5k Day Two was a little harder fro me. Jett went down for two naps, but for both of them, he woke up before I could go out and jump on my treadmill. So, I decided to use an app and do a walk/run in place for Day Two. You think it's easy, but it's pretty hard to keep a pace when you're basically standing still with a 16 month old biting your ankles. Without the timer on my treadmill to help me keep track of my seconds walking and jogging, I decided to use an app on…
FitBit One Review – Wireless Activity and Sleep Tracker | #FitBitOne #workout
I don't like to work out or run. I'm not really lazy, it's just something I prefer to put on the back burner. I'd rather sit on the couch and watch TV than go for a jog or get up and do a 30 minute workout. I'm pretty sure I'm in the majority when it comes to people in America who are sedentary couch potatoes. but after receiving my FitBit One, I realized just HOW inactive I really am. When you can visibly see, on a chart, just how much you don't move around, it tends to change you. FitBit…
Couch to 5k Day One | #c25k #running #workout
For a few weeks, I have struggled to find a workout routine that works for me. Everything I've looked into, I find myself dreading doing it, and I really want a workout that is going to keep me motivated and interested, without the dread and fear of having to push myself. Sure, no pain, no gain, but when you're like me, and you absolutely HATE to get up and do it, you'd rather just forget it, not do it, and stay fat, if it's not interesting and your heart and mind aren't in it. A friend of mine keeps posting…
