Yes, I am finally catching up our blog. January and February were crazy busy but we survived and now it is March. What? I think I go to bed at night and when I wake up I missed a month, or 2.
January started off with a bang, literally. I woke up unusually early New Years day and headed to the starting line of the Texas Marathon and Half with 9 other family members. Yes, being totally out of shape and 35lbs overweight I attempted to run a half marathon. It was so much fun to have that much cheering and support while running. I finished my half about the same time Steve (my brother in law) finished his whole marathon. Not a PR, to say the least, but it kicked off my weight loss challenge of 2011.
On January 3rd I turned 30 and decided to attempt the HCG Diet. In 30 days I lost 20 lbs. I have been able to keep it off for about a month now and plan to start round 2 of HCG in the middle of March. 20 down 20 more to go.
Maggie turned 6 on January 18 and wanted a very PINK birthday. When is she going to out grow the PINK STUFF?
The kids played basketball in a Baptist Church League here in Oklahoma and had a blast.
The end of Jan. beginning of Feb. we had 2 weeks of NO SCHOOL SNOW DAYS. Wait a minute didn't we move here from Utah to get away from snow? Here are some pictures of the kids playing in the snow on one of the days that was not below -0 degrees wind chill. So freaking cold!
The end of the month my sister and her brood came up for a visit and of course we headed to the Tulsa Zoo for some entertainment. Here are some pics,
This looks funny, right? I am so bad.
Here is Tuck with the tortoises. He could NOT get close enough to these guys. He just loved them.
And last but not least the train ride back to the front of the zoo. Every kid loves this part.
More posts soon to follow. We have a lot going on in the next couple of weeks. Check back later for those updates.
