Another week---Another Challenge!

How did last week's challenge go for everyone?
Simple, huh? But did you DO IT? Must admit that I did not, but I did notice increased X,O,I(heart)U's from Emily. Jim even kissed me at church!
So, continue that challenge.
I am so "unhealthy" right now. I am ready to do something about it. I found a family challenge on Dr. OZ. So everyone go over to his site and read through the challenge and see if we are all up for it. It is little steps, but everything we all need to do.
BTW His show 8-1-11 was WAY interesting it was DOPE! (Well maybe I am not getting the current lingo down for saying it was AWESOME, RAD, or whatever other slang we used) just "Watch it".
NEWS from the Nick & Gailyn Family--Hey guys why haven't you posted! This may not the the prettiest Blog--but it IS THE PLACE to post Notes, NEWS, and Challenges.
Are my kids cringing yet? Or are they really not reading this. I will keep after it until I have us all connected in doing challenges together.
Honestly, looking back on my past, the times I accomplished the most were when I was doing it with someone or someones. I can let my self down, but somehow it is harder to let others down.
Well you all have a great week.
Remember:
1)Post your notes, news and challenges HERE!
2)Continue with the "A Kiss, A Hug, and an I Love You" challenge
3)Check out the healthy family challenge on Dr. Oz website (If I was techno-savy I could have a link here)
PEACE,
MOM
(I knew I could make you cringe!)

I have a FOLLOWER!

Thanks Gailyn.
I have to admit that I am not sure how to "follow" a blog.
I could not figure it out on facebook, Actually I did not take any time to try to figure out, I was just looking for a link to click. (ha ha)

Hey Family

Where's the family? Do I have any followers? How are you doing on the "Challenge". I is surprising when we realize that we don't take time for this important connection in our busy day-to-day lives.
Keep trying though.
Hey, I found a schedule for reading the BOM in 100 days! Are you game yet?
Also, I found a challenge (not mine--origin from YW general board)
Daily
1) Pray
2) Read BOM 5 minutes
3) Smile

Okay, now it is your turn to give me some feedback.

Family Blog Site

Dear Fam,
This is a new blogpage to post News, Notes and Challenges!
Remember the challenge to read the Book of Mormon in 30 days starting on July 11th?
That was July 11th, 2011--well I don't know how you all are doing--but me not so well.
There is something about working together that makes things easier--like walking with a buddy, dieting together, etc. I want to have a family challenge that we are all trying to achieve something together. It can be anything from an exercise, weight-loss, fitness, challenge to obtaining a month's food storage, to scripture reading challenge, to sharing recipes, to boy(mean manly) things like. shooting, or yardwork, whatever, to hugging daily for 30 days, (or a kiss, a hug, and an I love you).
So, our first challenge will be just that:

A KISS, A HUG, AND AN I LOVE YOU

for one week we all need to give a kiss, a hug and say I love you to everyone in the family daily and especially when someone leaves the home and comes back.
Sign up for the challenge and then share anything about it that you want (yes, Matt, you can be honest and say it is gay!) For Aaron and Brianne I guess it will be phone calls (lets keep track of just who they remember to call or text each day!) Unless of course either of you have a special someone you want to share with us.
Please post back any ideas or items you share. This is for all of us to share News, Notes and Challenges. I love your blogs and someday this may be fancy like those.
Mom
