Get Fit 2011

Ryan is competing in his work's Biggest Loser competition. Only this year it's been changed to a "Get Fit" competition. There will still be a prize for the most weight loss but you can also choose to compete in: most curls in 2 min. (20 lb dumb bells), most sit ups in 2 min., most push ups in 2 min., fastest mile and fast walk. The catch is that it is most improved, not who can do the most. My over achiever husband has chosen to compete in all categories. There is a 30,  60 & 90 day check in so I won't be updating his improvement as often as last time. 

Weight- 215.2
Curls: 40
Push ups- 39
Sit ups- 26 
Walk- 14.01
Run- 8.01

Lucky!

This time we all got matching shirts for St. Patrick's Day instead of just the kids. Tally thinks it's so great that we all match. "The girls have black shirts and the boys have green shirts, and they all have flowers (shamrocks) on them!"

All of us
Just the boys
The girls
The kids
I like this one of Tally
and this one of Jake (This is when you need "the cloud" on all those commercials)
Happy (upcoming) St. Patrick's Day everybody!

Cheep! Cheep!

Stacia and Jeff got some new chicks yesterday so we had to go check them out.

I never thought I would have a daughter that's such a "girl" and yet not afraid of anything at the same time.

Daddy-daughter fun (with 2 tag-a-longs)

Ryan's been working a lot of hours lately and Tally was starting to have daddy withdrawals, so we decided a daddy-daughter date was needed. We headed over to Vernal's Rec Center so they could go swimming. (Jake and I walked the track).

As we were leaving Tally spotted this game in the hallway. It's like and upright "Wack-a-mole" with lights. I think she played 3 games, that's when we pulled her away from it.

Wild Thing!

I ordered my kids' spring clothes a couple weeks ago (as luck would have it, it actually snowed the day after I ordered) Tally was so excited when the box was delivered that she helped me unload it, take it out of the wrapping and then we had to lay it out. She figured out quick that she and Jake both had shirts that said "Wild" and informed me that she and Jake would be wearing there matching shirts today.

  This picture makes me laugh. They have the same eyes, same nose and same smile!

Visiting Grandma

 We packed up the kids and went to see Grandma "Nanny" Wilstead for a couple days. I didn't get a lot of pictures, but we had a fun time. Grandma gave Jake a sucker and he couldn't get enough of it!
This is the only picture I could get of Tally because she was too busy to stop and take a picture.
