I had someone ask me how it was going with the "healthy living" thing...so I thought I should do an update! Hopefully this will encourage someone else, because I have seen huge differences in my own life. You may remember a few months ago I checked out the book Real Food from the library. This reeeeeally got me thinking. The book is very eye opening about the things we put into our bodies and call "food." I highly recommend this book! We began making a lot of changes at that point. Well, I have ... Read More about Healthy Living ~ Update

An Outreach Idea…
Today my kids and I went shopping. We filled our cart with crackers, peanut butter, peanuts, tuna, cookies, shampoo, deoderant, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, socks and water bottles.

We were filling bags to keep in the back of our van for those times we may run into a homeless person on the side of the road who may be holding up a sign that says, "will work for food." When we come across one of these people, we can pull over and share a bag of ... Read More about An Outreach Idea…
