Sworkit

Have you all jumped on the Sworkit bandwagon?  It's probably the best fitness app out there.  Logan and I have been using it in the mornings to get our exercise.  I plug my phone into the TV (highly recommend since it's easier to see and for the low cost of an HDMI cable so worth it).  We usually do three five-minute workouts that include a cardio, a strength training, and a stretching session.  Short and sweet but I feel like I got some exercise and covered all my bases.  LOVE.  Between that and my fitbit step tracking I'm feeling pretty good. This article describes the app. you can get it at the apple app store, and I noticed amazon has it too . Anyway, just wanted to share.  I love that you can do it in your living room or bedroom, your kids can do it with you, and you don't need any special equipment AT ALL.  You could probably add weights if you really wanted to, but it's all body resistance on the app.

I think you've heard the story - A piñata was delivered to our house one evening.  Filled with candy and little stuffed bears asking if the girls could "bear" to go to Prom with the boys. I love how into this Faith is.  She's not even just waiting for her share of the candy! They answered by saying they'd be "lion" if they said they didn't want to go. Too cute. So the big day arrived.... The hair.   I did Hannah's.   Brynne did her own.  She's got  skillz . We bought these dresses from Amazon.  Can you believe it?   Hannah's was hemmed about a foot shorter by a nice lady in our ward.  I used hem tape to take Brynne's up a bit in front and I added a very light black liner to the top lace.  Turned out great.     And super modest - they didn't even need a cover up - BAZINGA! The boys arriving.  This is Matt (our Stake President's son) and Alex.  Aren'

April 2016 blew by - literally

It seems like a month just flies by these days.  Seriously.  Can't believe it.  So this is the April post, then I'll do a separate Prom post because GUYS !!!!  I had daughters go to Prom last night!!!  More on that later. So April was amazing and super busy.  Like, crazy.  And May will be worse - you'll hear about it later. We'll start off with a totally gratuitous photo of my Fay-Bay.  She's two, but so fun. The other night I was talking to a lady at church about Faith and she said, "oh, I wish I had a two year old!!"  And then we both totally cracked up because WHO says that?    (with this girl it totally depends on the day if I want a two year old or not) The Loganator turned 13 this month.  I can't believe I officially have three teenagers.  I can't believe HE is a teenager now!  He's super cute and helpful every day - he does any chore I ask him.  Not always well of course, but I really couldn't make it thro
