Family History TuesdayZ | Exercising

Journal Prompt: Do you like to exercise? Go to the gym? Take long walks?

Journal Prompt: Do you like to exercise? Go to the gym? Take long walks?Journal Prompt: Do you like to exercise? Go to the gym? Take long walks?



Family History TuesdayZEach Tuesday, I am going to be offering prompts or ideas. If you don’t write in your journal regularly – I am going to encourage you to write just ONCE A WEEK and answer the question/idea that I give on Tuesdays. These ideas hopefully will spark a memory and you will be able to capture that in what you write/record so that it can be left for your children/grandchildren/family/friends. Give as much detail as you can when answering.

Will you do this for me? Will you do this for your families? You can write it down in a journal, you can type it up on a computer or journaling software, you can take a recorder and talk, you can videotape your answers, you can even scrap a page with the journaling. It doesn’t matter how you do this – it’s just important that you do it. The memories, the dates, the information is the only real thing we can leave to our families when we are gone.

I’m so excited about my new Wii Fit! I can tell its going to be so great for me. This week will be full of playing on the Wii for sure!

It’s actually been so fun to find such great toys scattered around the house lately! The kids have really been having so much fun and its been a really great season!

More beautiful snow! It’s been nice to not have to go anywhere and just stay inside, drinking hot chocolate and being with my family.

On Christmas Eve, Joey made a huge list of things to do during this Christmas break with the kids. We have just about got through everything and the kids have loved having the list right on Joey’s dry erase board. They each have taken turns choosing off the list when they needed new activities and I have really enjoyed spending such great family time!

Our annual tradition of The Lord of the Rings in December is always so great! Joey and I have been watching them sporadically during the week and tonight we finished it. We both love the books and the movies and its such a fun way to be together.

We rang in the new year with the Wii, board games, yummy food, and movies. The kids actually made it to the midnight mark and it was fun to take this fun photo of us together!

We have played so many games this last week! It was fun to get some new ones for Christmas and I’ve enjoyed seeing my kids respond to playing together.

Life 365 | Week 30

I don’t know if it is just that its hot or what, but I really haven’t wanted to cook lately. I usually don’t mind the cooking (but I do HATE HATE HATE the cleaning up part). Joey will be working really late all week as they have a project deadline and they will be getting dinner brought into work each night, so I won’t have to feed him this week. So today, I just decided we were going to have McDonalds for dinner and the kids were so excited to get a happy meal!

The best part about summer is getting wet! And the kids enjoyed over an hour of sprinkler fun in the yard today! I just love seeing those big smiles on their faces.

I had a bad case of indigestion/heartburn today. I couldn’t even drag myself out of bed. I even had to cancel my crop and it was just a bad day. I was able to get up a few times and actually feed the kids, but mostly they were on their own today. Moms should never be sick. Anyways, what better thing to occupy your kids for the day than play dough! I got it out with the cookie cutters and it lasted them all afternoon. I’m very grateful for independent children today!

My friend Amber on her blog today referenced education.com and I am so glad she did. Now that the kids don’t have school/camp – I have not been doing so good with entertaining them. But this is a wonderful site that has so many fun learning activities to do! We have decided to make a goal to do at least one of them daily and it will help starve the boredom and make me feel like my kids are actually learning something and staying active for the rest of the summer! Today we read the story “The Boy who cried Wolf” and talked about honesty. Then we played a little game that they had that went with the story. It was a lot like Red Light, Green Light but we created some number cards and they had to use the numbers and also reading to see what they had to do. The kids had a blast and since Joey actually got home early tonight he got to play a round with us too! Joey also got our automatic sprinklers fixed tonight so no more having to drag the hose around – yay!

We got to tend cutie patootie Mallory again today and it is just such a delight. She’s getting so big and the kids love playing with her. It was the kind of day where we didn’t have to go anywhere – so we didn’t even get out of our pjs today – okay maybe that was just me. Yep, the kids got dressed, but I stayed in my pjs all day and loved every minute of it!

Today, we celebrated the 24th by attending the Pioneer Day Extravangaza in Provo. We toured the Pioneer Village and listened to stories, they had all kinds of fun activities for the kids from pony rides to making your own butter. The kids loved making harmonicas out of popsicle sticks and creating their own dreamcatchers out of paper plates. We had lunch at McDonalds and the kids got to wear themselves out playing on the playground. It was a fun day and nice to get out of the house for awhile!

Last night we hung the kids’ dreamcatchers up that they had made yesterday and told them how they would catch their bad dreams. This morning Beth told her daddy that she didn’t remember any dreams, so the dreamcatcher must have “accidentally took her good dreams” too!

We had church and then we had “magic ravioli” for dinner along with watching Matilda for the first time!

Another week of soccer camp! JJ and I took Beth to soccer this morning and then we walked around the 1 1/4 mile track they have there. It was good to get some exercise and I really need to remember to put that it in my schedule!

JJ’s first day of summer school was today. I feel so grateful that he had the opportunity to do this. I really think it helps him and its nice to have things to do in the summer! After his school we headed to the high school for the FREE LUNCH FOR KIDS that they have going every weekday this summer! Another thing to be grateful for!

I am feeling so glad that this summer has had so many rainy days so far. I love the chill in the air and the beauty of overcast clouds. The kids and I spent a while on the porch today just taking it all in!

I love watching my kids use their imaginations and just having fun! The kids really had a good time playing outside today.

Joey and I were able to go to our niece’s wedding in the Salt Lake City temple today. It was a beautiful ceremony and we really felt the spirit there. Cody and Becki took the kids for the morning/afternoon today and they had tons of time playing at the park with Cody, Becki, and Mallory. We picked them up and went to the luncheon/reception before heading home for the night. I had chicken in the crockpot that cooked all day and I came home and made 8 chicken enchilada meals for my dinner exchange tomorrow.

Today is Joey and I’s wedding anniversary. I feel so happy to have been married to my best friend for 11 years. We didn’t have any special plans today because we are a little low on funds right now. It actually turned out to be not a very good day. I slept through my alarm so JJ missed his T-ball game. I spent 2 hours in horrible traffic driving to Salt Lake City for my dinner exchange and the van overheated so I barely made it there. And then Joey went to do his podcast. So I was just ready for the day to end. When Joey got home from his podcast we did watch a movie and talked for awhile, so it ended up not being too bad. At least I have a week’s worth of dinners in the freezer for nights that I won’t have to cook! Yay!

Sunday, June 20, 2010

We didn’t have family movie night because JJ had to go to bed early. We have to wake up early to get him to the church for his Scout Day Camp tomorrow. I expected him to complain a lot more than he did when he had to go to bed and the sun was still up! I walked in 1o minutes after sending him to bed and this is what I found – so hopefully he’ll get lots of sleep and be happy for tomorrow!

And here is my weekly layout:

Project 365 | Week 38

I had my laptop open on the desk and I was doing dishes. I knew I had left a water cup in the bedroom, so I went and got it and on my way through the living room, I tripped over Joey’s desk chair and the leftover water from the cup went directly into my laptop’s computer! I couldn’t believe my bad luck, I tried to dry it out and it worked for a little while with an external keyboard, but then it just wouldn’t work. I’m so sad because we just don’t have the money to fix it right now.

Chili for dinner and smiles all around. Beth had a Pajama day and stayed in her pjs all day and I didn’t know until after I took these photos that she matched her brother’s shirt!

I’m really glad that I am able to walk Beth to school. I’m getting some much needed exercise and Beth really loves it because we have that time for just the two of us. We have been talking about lots of things together and she loves that when I go to pick her up I have her favorite ham and cheese sandwich waiting that she gets to eat on the way home!

Thursday nights are now volleyball for me and I’m loving it. I’m really out of shape and I can’t move the way I could in high school, but it’s still a lot of fun. I’m so grateful for a husband who will come and put the kids to bed so I can do this!

Today was JJ’s school’s Fall Festival. We went for about an hour and the kids got to ride some ponies, ride the swings, and their favorite – shoot off some paper rockets!

Saturday, September 19, 2009

The kids each earned a special activity through their chore chart this week, so JJ got to go with Dad to have pizza and play at Chuck E. Cheese and Beth and I went to a great park that had these fun fountains that she got to wade in!

We baked brownies in ice cream cones and then topped it with ice cream and sprinkles for dessert. So yummy!
