Church :) We had a wonderful time in sunday school this morning. Fun times!! I was blessed to help with a baptism today also. Bro. Nick had a great message that meshed so well with our discussion in ss!. After Church we went to eat with the Manzanares family again. We went to their house for about an hour and then came home, I got Emma down for her nap and Heather and I were back at church at 4 for children's choir. After choir my AMAZING husband suggested that we go for a walk :) So we went to tie breaker and walked around the ball fields for a while. His support and encouragement mean the world to me! We had a great time talking as we walked :) And then we circled the little playground area so that the kids could play while we walked. A great day. I am blessed.

Today we had planned on cutting wood, but the yucky weather planned otherwise. So instead we went to my mother's house and Eric put in her new water heater. I somehow stretched, strained, or pulled my muscles in my upper back yesterday and it hurts when I move certain ways :( BOOO! I need this to heal quickly. God's planning at work though, just so happens that Cathy took off the next 2 weeks so I won't be missing class if it doesn't get better soon. And I can still walk without it hurting too much, it's just twisting or trying to carry Emma around and some bending over it hurts. So walking it is!! :)

Meals:

Breakfast: Protein bar and an apple

Lunch:  a southwest grilled chicken wrap from McD's....my first and last. Just not for me. lol ,apple slices/water

Supper: I made my steak quesadillas again so dad could partake in their goodness! Definitely going to become a regular meal for us. Yumm! Also had a plate of chips and cheese.

Today Miss Emma and I woke up with a yucky cough, so I didn't go to the gym. So now I will have to achieve my steps while doing housework....I am determined to reach my 10,000 steps today since I didn't go to the gym. So, times a wastin' I gotta get movin' :)

Well, my husband asked me to go and get him a firewood permit, so my cleaning and my movin were interrupted :(  After I returned home, Cathy invited us out for a fellowship supper. So we went to their house for supper :) Good times :)

Meals:

Breakfast: protein bar/water

Lunch: I made steak fajita quesadillas...oh they were yummy!

Supper: potatoes(not many) corn, green beans, 1 1/2 rolls, and meat(mixture of chicken turkey and ham? with gravy) it was yummy :) ( Emma and I shared a plate) I also indulged in eating about 5 or 6 oreo cookies with a glass of milk. There were many different flavors so we all passed them around and taste tested each.

Weekly weigh-in and pic 3/27/14

So today's weigh in was 310 lbs. A 2 lb. increase from last week. However, last week was a huge jump, so I sort-of expected this to happen. I am not deterred. I think that if the previous week would have been a "normal" week, then I would be a lot more disappointed. But, I'm feeling good and looking forward to seeing that 308 lb. real soon ;).....

So I delayed posting this because I needed to get my picture....and it never happened. So new pic to come next week...

Well, we were blessed to have "daddy" with us today :) He had a vacation day that he needed to take or he would just lose it, so he took it :) We got up early and made 2 trips to the lake and got 2 loads of wood. The first load I was lovin! The second load.....after I ate lunch... was PHEW! I am worn out! So, a lot of work.... not a lot of steps. :(  I also didn't carry my phone on me because I was afraid I would break it or something while trying to split wood. We came home and a super quick supper and off to bed. YAY Bed! Ha!
