PRAISE THE LORD!!!

And, in case my dear husband is reading this…I’m SO proud of you!!

A funny thing happened between my last post in the category from December and about the end of February…I gain more weight! ACK! Still not everything I lost but enough that I’ve lost 5lbs a month since then and I’m now at 235 as of this morning. As per my motto, “slowly but surely wins the race”, that’s just what is happening. I’ve been going to the gym about 3-4 days per week, trying to eat good things, etc and it’s paying off.

I’m also going to ask some friends about starting to use their pool in the early morning hours since I just read moments ago that swimming for an hour burns an amazing amount of calories and I’d like all the help I can get, plus I LOVE to swim! So anyway, that’s where I am at the moment, and my ticker is accurate as of today’s date.

Update: Our friends said I could use the pool! YAY, I’m gonna be swimming off the pounds this Summer! *grin*

I haven’t posted any in a bit, other than the creature pic. These are much nicer! LOL

Praising the Lord!!! Our eldest son was baptized on Wednesday after making a profession of faith to my husband and I on last Christmas evening.

Stopping for a pic with his oldest sister just before we left home for the baptism.

Our oldest girls are shutterbugs, so our 13yo took this of her 14yo sister outside.

One last pic…taken by our 14yo daughter on a church outing. Can you guess what they did?
