A new post, a new start to a healthy life!!

Ok.. hope you don't kill over out of sheer shock that I blogged today! LOL!!

I haven't had one of those thingamajigs that you plug into your computer to download pictures to, so I haven't blogged.. poor excuse I know!!  But thought you would want to see pictures of our cute, adorable kids instead of other people you might not know.. so instead you get the latter.. ha ha!

I have had a rough end of last year and a really rough beginning.. the whole month of December I had a brain virus that knocked me flat off my feet, then in January, the beginning I had my back knock me off my feet, so now I feel it is due time that I make up for it and be on the healthy end helping my family and friends!!

So, I have been eating so much healthier, which I thought I was before.. but have taken it to a whole new level!  I am recently severely allergic to milk, anything with milk in it so I have altered my cooking and baking and has turned out amazing!! Rice milk and almond milk have made it taste soo good.  Been swishing my mouth out with Sesame oil and the results are incredible!! Started juicing oranges, and an apple and a couple of carrots in the morning and I feel soo good! Energy and my back feels wonderful, soo much better than I did!  In fact, I have been asked if I work out and I haven't until just a couple days ago and that was only once and for 15 minutes.  I am more toned all over without doing anything so I can only imagine how I will feel and look when I actually do!  ( I am most thankful, not trying to sound prideful and if I do  Iam  so sorry! Its just that I feel soo good with what I am doing it is so nice for a change!!)  And I am using this new product for my skin and it is healing my face!!  What wonderful blessings that I am so grateful for!!

Ross is amazing!!  He has been eating so healthy and looks sooo wonderful!! He just started cooking Korean meals( where he served his Mission) and this is the second night he has made them and all I can say is WOW!! So yummy!! We had Tammy and Tom and the family over for dinner tonight and they loved it!! Was so nice to have someone to share this occasion with!  It is so healthy and flavorful, I am so happy!!

Note.. the above picture.. this is definately me.. ha ha.. not even close but a good goal.. if we could all look that good naturally.. hmm!

I have much to be thankful for.. my dear family who loves me so much and I love them.. all of them! My sweet friends who are there for me and love me regardless of my weaknesses.  My Savior who loves me unconditionally and died for me.  I love all of you and are so thankful for all my blessings.
