Time to catch up

So obviously it has been forever since I have posted. Sorry! Time flies when you are having fun. The holidays were great. Spent time with both families in Topeka and Clarinda.
Work has been great! Very busy, but I guess that means job security! Still learning everyday and that is what I love.
Married life is great! I have such a wonderful husband.
Our families are doing good! I plan to go back home Feb. 20th for a crop.
Facebook is consuming a lot of my time, instead of this blog.
Enjoying our church. We became members of Timothy Lutheran Church in Nov. We attend the service of Joy which is a contemporary service.

Which try to keep you all posted on our news better!

Have a great week!

Dr. Oz

I have my 2 seconds of fame on Wed. Nov. 25. Watch Dr. Oz. The part they are going to show I did not realize they were taping and now using it. It will be funny. My friend Amanda has her 60 day follow up on Dr. Oz show! She is doing great! Enjoy the show.

Catching Up

Wow! Time has gone so fast this fall. My days fly by. I guess that means I am happy and having fun. Time flies when you have fun! As Thanksgiving is fast approaching here are a few things I am thankful for....(I know I will miss many things)
Jesus is my Savior
My family
My wonderful husband
Friends
I enjoy my job
scrapbooking
crocheting
freedom
smiles
Shelter
Dishes to wash (such a blessing...we have food and water)
Opportunity to try new things
safe environment to live in

Again, I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week. I am thankful for a short work week. Scott, his parents and I are heading to Atlanta, GA.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Dr. Oz and Bob Harper

I had an AWESOME day yesterday. My great friend and co-worker, Amanda, is amazing. 1 month ago Dr. Oz flew Amanda to New York to be on his show for a special 60 day Lifestyle Challenge. While she was there she met Bob Harper from Biggest Loser.

Yesterday Dr. Oz producers came to KC to check on her. Amanda had the opportunity to select supportive co-workers and I was one of them. I was filmed for the Dr. Oz show! As we were taping a surpise trainer came on site.....yup, it was Bob from Biggest Loser!

We went from the hospital to Liberty Memorial to do a workout session with Bob. Only a selective group of people were invited to come to the workout session. There were probably 75 people at this workout session lead by Bob.

I have joined my friend on this challenge. I have been a little slow joining her and getting motivated...but within 1 week I have lost 6 lbs. I am wearing a podimeter daily and aiming for 10,000 steps. Walking 30 minutes a day. Cutting out foods that end in "ose". Scott and I have been getting up early (5 a.m.) to exercise before work 3 days a week. I feel great!

Here are a few pictures from my great adventure. Also select Amanda's name on the right to read about her journey. I will keep you posted as to when the show will air.
