Our Family Photos

We decided it was time for some different, more fun pictures this year. Usually we do the wamart thing. But that just wasn't cutting it for me. For me I think they charge to much for what you don't get. So I asked around to some friends and found a great mom that loves doing it. Her name is Kristi Simmons. She did an amazing job and my family just loved working with her... the best part is that she just gave me a disk of everything she took and I have tons of different pictures to choose from!!! Here is just a few of what she took.

The first 10 are the Hardest!

Well my title is the truth. I have finally lost my first 10 pounds. The sad but good part is it only took me a week. Thanks to some very motivating people I have finally taken it upon myself to smack myself upside the head and get started. So for the last week I have pushed myself, with the wonderful help from my husband to really get started with losing weight. It was kind of hard to just fully dedicate myself to stop doing some habits and start better habits. But I learned from a really good talk I heard recently that it takes a couple weeks to really develope something into a habit. So hopefully now I will have more active updates about losing weight. I am really motivated and excited to get where I want to be!!! Thanks to all of you wonderful people in my life who have helped to motivate me!!!
Yay for my first 10 pounds gone!!!!!

I took some pictures and decided to try the picnik website I have been told about. It is too much fun. If you haven't tried it you really should. So if you wanna see what it is about you can look at some of these photos, or go try it.

I'm just having too much fun!!! I really can't help it....

I absolutely love this one, it started out a a picture from the 4th of july and now it looks like a sketch. I love, love ,love this picture!!
