Turkey Day

This was our first thanksgiving in our new home. It started with a fun flag football game at MVCC's Turkey Bowl. I came home not feeling well after the game and came down hard with a chest cold and 103 degree fever. Not good for someone who is hosting a dinner for over 30 people. God has blessed me with an amazing family! My husband dilligently cleaned the house and yard while my sister Amber, her boyfriend Mackenzie and my younger brother made our Thanksgiving meal. I was pumped full of med's and slept from 10am-6pm. It was an amazing night I didn't eat much but what I did eat was delicious. About 10 family members arrived after dinner and we played TOMA TODO. I felt blessed to spend the night with my close family and friends and for my amazing family who all pitched in to make it a memorable night!

The Challenge

I am a HUGE ( no pun intended) Biggest Loser fan and when I heard of the promotion Ramona Fitness Center was doing with their Biggest Winner Contest I just had to be a part of it! I plan to track my progress here on my blog. It is here you will see pictures of our team in action, I will post updates, healthy food recipes I discover, and hopefully pictures of our team winning the challenge on April 12th!
