AJ turned 19 today. We had a fun get together at Gma and Gpa Laurito's house. Eldon and Diane, Johnny, Marcus, Laura, Rachel, Seth, Miranda, Duncan and Drake and all of us were there. It was fun. The boys played football at AJ's request.
The girls and I went to the pool Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week. The Turner's pass ended yesterday and they wanted to get their $ worth! We love to swim!
I have been working on losing weight for quite some time. Took me over a year to lose 10 lbs (40 is tough!) This week I made my second goal and hit 145. I will try to maintain that for awhile. (My weight likes to fluctuate)
Andy is doing great. He lost 60 lbs. It has helped for us to both be trying.
I go to work out every day from 6-7 a.m. I like spinning on M and F, walking on W, weights on T & H. Then swim any chance I get. In addition I try to walk to the kids to school and me to work about 1 mile every day. I don't usually walk home. With the kids new schedule I've had to cut my workout 15-20 minutes every day. Hopefully it won't make me gain weight again.
Tomorrow is Taylor Squires farewell. He leaves on his mission next Wednesday. Should be fun to see everyone at Ben and Laura's tomorrow. They are expecting a large crowd.
We are getting our counter tops replaced next Thursday. We like to do one improvement each year to the house. Should look really nice. We got a new kitchen floor last year. So the kitchen should look really good. My stove is ugly but everything else is nice. (I can't replace it because it keeps working so well!!!)
Time seems to fly by! I have a hard time remembering when things happened and days just zoom by. So much to do, so little time! I guess that's good!
