Prayers

Please, please, please keep two moms who I simply know through their blogs in your prayers. Two moms miles away, but both facing the same nightmare. One is pregnant with her third child and one just had her fifth. Both amazing women have to have a tumor removed (one from her ovary and one from her thyroid) that may be malignant.

Please take some time out of your day to pause for a moment of silence and pray for them. Pray that God will keep them close as they face these next few days of surgery, recovery, and then just waiting to hear news about their future.

And finally, if you are a mom, make sure you thank God tonight for your own health and be sure to hug your kids a little tighter tonight. We never know what tomorrow will hold, but for tonight ENJOY your KIDS......I know I will.

Time to BE

On Monday, Hunter had no school so I decided to wake up, pack our lunches, and spend all day out doors enjoying the weather and each other. I had one of the best days with my kids EvER.

It started out as just another Beautiful day in Iowa

So we took a drive out to farm country, hopped on a hayride

And searched and searched for the perfect pumpkin

Then we spent some time playing on the huge bales of hay. Hunterbear jumped and climbed for quite some time

and was so proud that he made it to the top.

Kinley loves playing in the big pile of corn kernals. She giggled everytime her toes sank in the corn

While Hunter played some more on the park

Kinz took a nap under a shaded tree with the warmth of the sun and a cool breeze

And me....well, I just thanked God for two beautiful children and more importantly for allowing me so much time to just BE with my children and treasure small moments like today.

Better Health.....Better Future!

Attention EVERYONE who have been searching for an easy way to nourish your body and live a longer and healthier life. ....Attention all MOMs who have been searching for an easy way to get your kids to get the benefits of the reccommended servings for fruits and vegetables. STOP SEARCHING and READ about this INCREDIBLE JUICE!

I am So excited to share with all of my readers this new drink I started giving my family. A friend of mine introduced this drink and company to me over three years ago. I brushed it off at first as another one of those marketing scams. Now that I am a nurse, I just could not ignore the health benefits. I used my educated knowledge and research skills to further examine what all the hype is about this juice, and let me tell you it is NOT a scam. It works, and my first goal is to make sure everyone in my life that I care about starts drinking this juice.

It is called Mona Vie and it is a yummy blend of 19 remarkably healthy fruits including the renown acai berry found only in South America. The acai berry is most known for helping the body fight free radicals, which are formed during a process called oxidation and they can damage cells, accelerate aging, and have been shown to lead to certain ailments.

Right now there are 5 various bottles all including this acai berry along with additional benefits. For example, one bottle is called Pulse and I would recommend taking this drink if you have high cholesterol or blood pressure issues because it includes plant sterols and omega 3 fatty acids, which have been scientifically formulated to lower cholesterol.

My family (Hunter, Paul, and I) take Mona Vie Essential which is formulated to provide your body with the needed benefits to improve your overall health, joint function, and increase overall energy. Before I committed to this product, my friend let me try this bottle and we LOVED IT. Besides the delicious taste, I just felt rejuvenated. Now, you usually have to take this drink for 2-4 weeks before you feel the increase in energy, but I felt so good knowing my family was on the road to improved health and wellness. This is the first time in 5 years, I have not had to ask Hunter to eat or drink something healhy.....one sip and he was hooked. He takes 2 ounces in the morning with his breakfast and Paul and I take two ounces in the morning and night.....that's all it takes to benefit from the same antioxidant ability as 13 servings of fruits and vegetables...WOW:) There is also a bottle called Monavie, Mun, and it helps boost your immune system...you can bet my family will be taking this during the flu season.

Anyway, I am so excited that we have decided to invest in this product and this company. You can read about the product and the many incredible benefits it has to offer at my website

This is a relatively new company, so if you are at all interested in enjoying the health benefits and having the potential to make some extra cash, please email me because now is the best time to get involved. I would happy to go over this exciting opportunity with each and everyone of you.

***For those that live near me and want to come to a FREE tasting to try the product and hear more experienced distributers discuss the juice and the company please let me know. I would be happy to put together a small party for you and your loved ones. ***

Laughing Attack

Here is a Hysterical video showing some brotherly/sister love. Hunter came home from school yesterday and spent a good part of the evening trying to make his sister laugh. After a few attempts, he finally found a peekaboo 'skit' that was just so laughable...according to Kinz.

Hope this video puts a smile on your face
