Give a Stove this Holiday – The Adventure Project Campaign on Vimeo from The Adventure Project on Vimeo. Jody was the leader of the trip i took to africa. GIVING is FUN. what an awesome cause! can you imagine half a million people in tents???? can you imagine losing your child because of smoke from the fire you cook their food on? these stoves save lives. they provide income, jobs and diginity for women in port au prince. they give TIME to women in haiti. they make an awesome christmas gift too…. donate in someone's honor. 🙂 giving is fun. visit TheAdventureProject.org for all the details. ………………………………………. and in other news…. my friend Pam moved to africa on saturday.
sigh. what an adventure! pam…i miss you so much already!!!!! i am so happy God gave me Pam. she rocks. pam…i hope you don't lose internet. 🙂 keep her family in your prayers as they all adjust to life as family in AFRICA. they were obedient. and now… they live in liberia!!! i can't wait to go visit her. (i love this post about pam…..) my sister and brother in law just moved to Ethiopia at the end of October. they are ALSO doing business as mission. they are involved with a group that gives micro-loans to African women [some men]. i am so proud that they were obedient like your friends. thanks for this post. i enjoy reading your blog. i will pray for Pam and her family. what an exciting adventure for them in life following Jesus… What a fantastic opportunity for your friends! My friends from high school lived in Liberia as children. They just made a documentary about a trip they made and it is getting a lot of buzz. Here is a link to their page and documentary. Very nice, thanks for sharing. Thanks so much for all the prayers everyone! 🙂 Meggie – this post came on the heels of a very homesick day. Wow. God’s timing is perfect. More tears. I love you. Can’t wait to see you on this side of the ocean! Just lifted your friend and her family up in prayer. I mean, do we really know how hard it would be to pick up and move to ANOTHER COUNTRY? Wow, I am impressed! Her family is awesome! this made me teary! I have a friend serving w/ her family in China and my heart nearly busts when I think of her. So proud of her … and she makes me love Jesus more too. what a sweet post … so glad I stopped by here this morning. Blessings – hope you and your fam have a happy thanksgiving. 🙂 I love your heart, Meg. It’s so fun to see God moving in friend’s lives– and friends of friends. It’s a universal joy that sisters in Christ can get all excited about. Pam, I don’t even know you but I Love your heart!! My family will be lifting you up very high in prayer! this post brought tears to my eyes as my husband and i just moved back from living in africa. its such a huge adjustment but so wonderful. my heart has been heavy for my ‘2nd home’ this week. it steals your heart… but you already know that well. 🙂 I love Haiti! Been there two times and fell in love with the people. What a simple and practical way to be able to help others! thanks so much for the post about the adventure project! God is great! I’m so happy for your friend, it’s truly wonderful what’s she is doing. My family will pray for them in Africa. “I see people differently because of Pam”… Please email me! I have a question about your blog! 🙂 I’d like to do this project. Do you have any problem with me reposting this? I think this may be my “after Thanksgiving” project. Thanks. In 2010 my sister, her husband and my 5 nephews moved from SC to Botswana, sent by their church as missionaries. Your words… What an amazing adventure awaits her. God is doing amazing things in Africa. I went to Namibia in September and I know someday I will return. I will keep her in my prayers. Wow! This would be a perfect Christmas gift for my MIL who loves to cook, but needs no gifts! Is there a quick link you can add to send us to these ladies site? AWESOME there were 13 cars waiting to get into the mcdonalds drive thru this morning? i counted that when i was out running. ************************************************ basketball has begun. ************************************************ i am going to take my kids to see jack & jill today. but who wants to bet $20 that i still cry at that movie?!! ************************************************
i am behind (like ALWAYS!) so i don't have photos but i wanted to remind you about Operation Christmas Child. i am going with my kids to pick out some goodies and we are going to pack our boxes this weekend. check out the website HERE to find a drop off location near you. you only have another week or so. this is my post about it from last year…….SO MUCH FUN! ************************************************ did you do the happy day projects? all of them? some of them? it was FUN wasn't it?! it's super cool. ************************************************ well….. i can't stop smiling about it….. happy day to YOU. i am off to jack & jill. geesh.
I think you probably live close to where I lived. My daughter played basketball every summer in Hesston. We moved from Kansas to Indiana Dec. 2009 and I miss it. I enjoy your blog! blessings Meg, I would just like to say thank you for your Christ centered blog…My family and I have been able to really reach out and have become a giving family because of all your ideas of giving. The 7 of us shopped this past weekend and packed our shoe boxes for OCC. It was such a blessing reading the letters my kids included in their boxes. Thank you for helping me raise caring children. I love my Erin Condren planner! It makes me so happy to look at all the rainbow colors. I think you probably live close to where I lived. My daughter played basketball every summer in Hesston. We moved from Kansas to Indiana Dec. 2009 and I miss it. I enjoy your blog! blessings It seems like everyone has an Erin Condren planner these days! I must admit, they’re awfully pretty! We are doing the Operation Christmas Child for my daughters brownie troop. Such a great project! Also LOVING that planner. I’m addicted to planners and organizers. I am sooo with you on the bandwagon. I got my planner today. I am so, so, so excited! Now, i Have to use it – lol. I’m with you on Jack and Jill…I don’t want to see those movies, but if I do, I will cry easily as some random sweet moment. My kids will look at me – “mom are you crying??!” they can’t believe what a sap I am. I love your random posts – they are the best! 🙂 Yay for Erin Condren in your mailbox!!!!! Thanks to you, we’ve done OCC for the past 2 years. It has become an amazing kick off to Christmas tradition for our family. And, it’s about others. My 4 year old is super into it this year & it makes me so happy. So, thank you for posting about it again & again. Four miles? Woohoo! I haven’t run in a month because of a stupid cough/cold that won’t let me go. I’m getting back out there though. How funny, we’re doing our Operation Christmas Child boxes tomorrow too! Have a great time! So happy that you mentioned OCC shoeboxes! They are one of my favorite parts about Christmas.. I go each year to Boone, NC and help process the boxes. My brother has worked for Samaritan’s Purse for 30 years, so we have been packing shoeboxes for a long time… Would love to go overseas one year to help distribute them. So glad that you and your family support such a great cause! Thanks for the shout-out! I saw a commercial where MCdonalds is giving away free coffee for the whole month of November, could be why? Anyway, I love your blog, your honesty, your real, we could be friends. congratulations on the 4 miles it’s kindof a big deal I’ve done it only twice Iam new to running but never thought in my whole life I would actually “like” it. Now, I crave it, sick isn’t it? Scales not moving but I also like to eat…I blog about food, I cook…a lot, it’s okay, my heart will be healthy 🙂 thanks for all the inspiration. I love my Erin Condren planner, too! Happy weekend! 🙂 Okay, gotta say, I want to see Jack and Jill….love potty humor. Just being honest 🙂 jumped on the e condren bandwagon myself. i almost hugged the fed ex man. i smile everytime i look at it!!! We are excited for bball over here too. Right now we are watching the MSU/N. Carolina game. Go green! Are you finding that running has helped you lose some weight? I think I’m similar to you in size and am hoping to see some results from the running I started this week, along with some better eating habits. YES!! My Erin Condren planner came in the mail today too and I’m seriously scared to start writing in it because I love it so much. Love that calendar! I am definitely putting that on my Christmas wish list 🙂 I just got my Erin Condren planner the other day and I can’t stop staring at it. I love it and wonder where it’s been my entire life. McDonald’s breakfast grosses me out. I remember eating there once when I was little and it was horrible. I often think, when I see the line at McD’s “Wouldn’t it have been faster to have breakfast at home?” I just told my sons that you couldn’t pay me to see that movie. How about a million dollars? they asked. I said, well maybe then. your run = awesome!! 🙂 wow…four miles…you go! my calendar is on its way? wonder if my life will get more organized?? have a fun weekend! I’m going to McDonalds on my way to a Penn State game tomorrow. I hope people don’t judge me because I still like, actually love Penn State. Anyway.. to brighter subjects, I can’t wait to see the Muppets !! Oh hey cutest planner EVER! Yes, I did do the Happy Day Projects and I loved it! I just got my Erin Condren Month-at-a-glance Notebook TODAY!! So much happy going on, I can barely contain myself. I think McDonalds was doing something special for Veteran’s Day today?? Yes, we’re doing the Happy Day projects but since Ive had a super crazy week we’re getting caught up on them today, since we have the day off. I read your blog pretty much daily and I’m fairly certain you go to the same church as I do. I never comment…just not my thing but…I noticed in your basketball pictures that your son plays for the Swathers and that he plays with my first group of students I ever taught. (It’s been over 4 years ago…those kiddos were in 4th grade then!) I’m also one of the girl’s 7th and 8th grade coaches this year! I guess I didn’t realize your kids go there! It’s a great school district! I can’t wait to pack our shoeboxes. Such a fun and thoughtful Christmas project. Our family is packing a box as a Christmas gift to each of us. So, each of us pack 2 boxes. It’s fun to shop and pack and play Christmas music. 🙂 Have fun at the movies. I am taking the fam when The muppets come out. so many of you ask me photography questions and i feel like i am not equipped to answer. SHE HAS AN ONLINE PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS!!! you must go and sign up. you will learn so much. and it's at your own pace…..you can fit it in when you want….it's perfect! and it's only $150 this month. i am so excited for ashley. i bet it sells out today so don't wait any longer! Ashley’s awesome! Thanks for helping spread the word about her class 🙂 Can’t wait to start it on Monday! You officially rock my world! This is SOOO EXCITING!! I’ve adored her work for so long!! I’m going to have to save my pennies, nickles and dimes!! Thank you bunches for sharing this!!♥ I wish I had a cool dslr camera. Thanks, bookmarked. Thanks! I am signed up. I don’t have a camera yet. Any suggestions on brand or a place to find one??? YAY! I’m all signed up! she is the cutest! and she just seems so sweet and laid-back. SQUEEE!! I’m signed up. Thanks for posting this AND for alerting us on FB. You are the bomb! I think she’ll have another one in Septemeber too Katy =] Perfect timing! Just got my new camera a week ago & am feeling so overwhelmed! But LOVING it! I’ve just been playing with the lenses and shooting in auto mode mostly. Love the pics I’ve been getting, but ready to start using all the cool functions and see what I can really do! I’m going to check this out, Thanks! Since it’s online, she isn’t going to offer an unlimited amount of people to sign up? I wouldn’t be able to sign up until Friday and I am afraid it will be sold out by then.. 🙁 Thanks for sharing this!!!!
pretty simple really. YUM. loving treat tuesdays. we also made Pizza pretzels last week. the boys liked these more than the girls. and we made Dana's pumpkin chocolate chip cookies too. ……………………………………….. there is a BIG fundraiser on amy's blog to help bring davis home. i am so excited for her family!!! there are BIG prizes. maybe THIS is the one where I will win the iPad?!!?? 🙂 we all know that it's not about the prizes. being generous is FUN. the prizes are just the icing. GO DONATE AND HELP BRING DAVIS HOME. he has a mama and a daddy who wants him in her arms NOW. and sisters and brothers who want to love on him.
It is so rewarding to see a site that brings to mind a healthy Mom and her best loves. Thank You PS…I put pictures up on my new blog of our versions…I linked to your page and gave you all the credit. 🙂 So fun! I’m brand new to this blog world, and yours is my favorite! My 2 year old and I started Sweet Saturdays (or sundays) because of you! Keep the good ideas (and pictures) coming! I think the oreo pops may be my new Christmas gift idea!!!! No one could pass those up. I never thought of pizza pretzels, it has been printed off. It will be on the menu very soon. Yummy!!!!! Looks like a fun day in the kitchen!!! I love days like those. Just added you to my Reader. Beautiful blog. What kind of camera/editing program are you using? I am in love with your photos!! YUM! They look so yummy and so pretty! Those look delicious and easy. Must try soon! OREO POPS?!!?!? yum! I love having one on one time with each child! “Being generous is fun”… Maybe that’s why your name showed up as a contributor in our Batten Disease newsletter. Big thanks! OK, these look too good…….dangerously good, in fact. I have a question for you totally off the Oreo subject…I would have emailed but my computer is being a bit…well…difficult this morning. We are looking to get a puppy and have been considering a labradoodle or goldendoodle…isn’t Waffle a goldendoodle? If so, I was wondering about shedding? Does he shed crazy, mild or what? Thanks!!!! and now I am off to the store to buy Oreo’s and sprinkles…….my kids thank you!!!! Yumm-o! Must make those oreo pops TODAY!! =) Yumm-o! Must make those oreo pops TODAY!! =) Just want to say happy weekend! Thank you for your happy, inspirational posts. They always make my day. I hope someone makes your day. 🙂 I love how serious she looks while applying sprinkles! It’s a serious job 🙂 Thanks for the awesome ideas. I have Treat Tuesdays with my kids too, and these will be great for them to make with me. The oreo pops would be great for my daughters birthday party too! Oreo pops. I wish I had one now. T Oh, wow, do those Oreo pops look good! I think I may have to make those with my kids next week! Those oreo pops look awesome! they would be fun for a birthday party. Oooo, I need to make those with my kiddos. They would LOVE this! And the pretzels sound so good. Thanks for the great idea! Those Oreo pops look soo good!! Off to check out that pizza pretzel recipe. those would be dangerous in my house…they’d all eat one and leave me in the kitchen with them. Alone. i’d eat ’em all. 🙂 I am SO making those oreo pops. My kids would flip out over them! must.make.pizza.pretzels.YUM! I’d like the pretzels better & my son would like the oreos. Seems to be an oreo themed summer…my friend made oreos wrapped in chocolate chip cookie dough…have you heard of those yet? What a yummy treat, and adorable! Now i’m gonna have to make them with my 2 yr old 🙂 These oreo pops look delicious. and pizza pretzels look good too. Yum! Enjoyed Annie’s picture in the paper! Hannah is taking that class too and I blogged about it (I can’t blog like you do, but you might enjoy it anyway) Yum!! I need to update our summer list to include Oreo pops. oh man. those are baaaaad news. how could something that looks so good be so dangerous?? atleast you have kids who will eat them. i would be found later that night in the pantry finishing up the baby’s. ;)how fun for your talby. 🙂 Treat Tuesdays.. How fun! Wish you had a picture of the pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, though. Actually, nevermind.. I might drool all over the keyboard, ha! my mailbox was a happy place on saturday! they are made by chrissie grace. she sent me a collage of the many different examples of the pillows she has made. Each name (or word) is hand embroidered.
The scripture or quote is free hand embroidery on my machine. The pillows are all envelope style so they can be washed if needed.
These are custom order pillows with any names…they don't just have to be first names.
They can be last names or words with meaning…like grace, faith, etc. and have corresponding scripture.
SO….chrissie came up with an incredible idea. we are calling it….. chrissie's idea was simple and lovely….AND A SURPRISE!! pick out a beautiful pillow…..any pillow…..and 25% of that sale will go to bring DAVIS home to amy!! think ahead to christmas or birthdays.
i just can't stop smiling about this. amy….we are so happy to help bring Davis to your arms as soon as possible. 🙂 to God be all the Glory…the Giver of ALL gifts….and the One who Loves and Created Davis for YOU.
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don’t know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often. Me too! I loved the idea of making these pillows all for a good cause. And your girls are all lovely as well. Did Amy already adopt baby Davis? Now I’m getting excited for both of them! love these pillows! and what a great idea! In loooove with these pillows. Just tweeted about it. Will FB too. And off to go shopping…. Love these pillows… beautiful. We are about to make our summer list for the 2nd year.. thanks to your inspiration! i am so excited! i have been looking for a special present for my girlie’s 2nd birthday this month. hooray Okay, first of all–I love the picture of your adorable girlie-girls holding their pillows, and I love that they asked if they could keep them (so sweet!). Those pillows are beautiful. I think I need one to keep, too! : ) beautiful. awesome, ladies!! thanks! what a treat to help little davis come HOME! xo I ordered a pillow for my daughter — I couldn’t resist and am happy to help in some small way! I love the pillows…I love Reece’s Rainbow and I really LOVE that your friend Amy is adopting Davis. My 3 year old son has Down syndrome….knowing that Davis will soon have a loving family warms my heart beyond description. I will be buying some pillows! The pillows are beautiful! Works of art, for sure. And what a special, generous way to keep the giving going… How pretty!!! The entire thing is genius and awesome. I’m so excited – I just ordered one for my dad for Father’s Day! She is customizing it with his name (Philip) and a Bible verse that I chose for him! Thanks for the wonderful idea, Meg! I was in love with the mother pillow and bought it before I even paged down to see about Davis. Doubled my happiness. I am in love. Everything that Chrissie Grace touches is meaningful and lovely. I am excited for Amy. Excited for Davis. Excited to see how God moves. Just fabulous!!! Just ordered mine!!! Can hardly wait. I bought one for my BFF’s daughter who has lived her entire 11 months in the pediatric Cardiac ICU. This is a perfect gift for her!! And a double blessing in helping bring Davis home. Thanks, Meg. Now I need to order more for my kids. 😉 What a great idea! Wow What beautiful pillows and a beautiful heart! Thanks for sharing!I will check out her site. Oh, those are so sweet! Thank you so much for this opportunity to help bring home another child of God! I think I’m in love. I want one of these pillows for each of my girls! be still my heart…..these pillows are AMAZING. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! The pillow and the idea. These adoption posts make me cry. Every time. these are adorable!! and what a fab idea for Davis. you GO girls xx Annie is such a great name…:-) I love these pillows, alot of work they are! and beautiful, a great gift idea.. Amazingly cute. Love everything about these! 🙂 Gorgeous pillows and a MORE BEAUTIFUL spirit. God bless this project. 🙂 Beautiful!!! The pillows, the vision, Davis, the whole thing….just beautiful!!!! LOVE this! Just ordered one for my daughter. Amazing talent and wonderful that proceeds go toward a great cause. LOVE!! LOVE these! Will have to bookmark her page and have her make one when my grandbaby is born! Those pillows are ADORABLE!! Great, great idea! So happy for Amy and little Davis! Thank you Meg and Chrissie Grace for your giving hearts! You ladies rock!!! Beautiful pillows and a wonderful cause! “free hand embroidery on my machine”!!!!!! That is some crazy talent. I’m so glad that she gifted you so we could find her. WOO HOO…these are so cool. LOVE these!! So cute! ok…. i have some stuff to tell you and some questions to ask. 1. i am still doing Ripped in 30 with jillian michaels. so far…..i am not ripped. 2. yesterdays video.
3. did you see that we helped raise $17,093 for sergey!!! and grateful for each of you that GAVE!! go check and see if you won any of those fabulous prizes….especially if your name is jennifer! 4. should i be on twitter? why?
5. there is one more day for the gatorade giveaway. if i won i would use it for sports bras. but you can spend your $100 any way you'd like. ———————————————————————————————————————— and that's it for my friday. it's pizza for dinner and a movie on the couch. and i got a netflix for me after the kids go to bed….Parenthood….the MOVIE. the show is so good because the movie was so good.
Twitter and FB are VERY different… FB is more static, whereas Twitter is an ongoing conversation (think telephone party line, but without the creepy, scuzzy connotation). Should you be on twitter? Depends what you hope to gain… just a comment on the exercising: yes, you probably are supposed to do 30 in 30 days but… does she have 5 kids? does she clean the house? wash the clothes? fix their dinner? drive them here, there and everywhere? I look at it as you did MORE THAN one every other day (17 in 30)! THAT IS AWESOME! I have Twitter, but to be honest I am not sure what the point of it is. Maybe I just am not funny enough 🙂 I have to admit you inspired me to go out and by Jillian’s dvd, did a solid 10 days and pulled my “hammi” so bad that I had to take 2 days off. darn squats! I will be back at it tomorrow, but I think I will be mixing in some yoga as well. thinking my body needs a little extra stretching and not so much squatting! not sure if your cable provider has on demand, but on the exercise channel you can do all of her workouts for free!!! Im sure you’re kicking some major bootie in your jillian workout! I’m cracking up…”it’s been 30 days…and I am not ripped!” I love it 😉 We need to stream Parenthood…haven’t seen it in a lonnnng time 😉 Happpy Weekending Duerksen FamilY!!! Laughing at your Jillian video because I have been ignoring her lately. I need to talk with her though because my junk food habit is kicking my booty! Stick with the workout! I did it for 2 months before I hit a “giving up” day. And I never hit that day because I got toned (I’m not ripped) and lost 32 pounds! Stop drinking soda (if you do drink it) its not doing any favors for ya 🙂 i was doing jullian’s 30 day shred…maybe i should try yours…looks like it’s going well 🙂 definately do another video…very cool! and i don’t have a clue what twitter is/does. seems like another time zapper 🙂 ha!! Awesome fund raising…just amazing what you have accomplished so far! Keep it up♥ Have to give my 2 cents on Twitter … I’m on it & share more there than I do on my (writing) blog or FB these days. Even if you don’t share a lot on Twitter, it’s a nice way to find people that have the same interests as you do: crafts, photography, kids, sewing, charity, etc. and then share ideas and support. Oh, Parenthood is SUCH a classic! Loved it then, haven’t seen it in awhile. Liked your video yesterday, too, super fun, did I tell you that? You are so real and your kids are cool and totally normal. That’s nice. Thanks for blogging so much, it’s fun to read new stuff daily. I have Jillian…have tried her two months with mixed success, never more than 15 days. It’s the darn weekends that kill me…Mon-Fri keep me on the wagon. Just keep going!! Twitter is fun. It is just another way to express yourself. I wish I knew what it was like to need a sports bra. Nothing has ever gotten in my way but my bug butt. Parenthood is such a great movie. i give you a big, huge green light on twitter. it’s weird at first but fun, too. but still weird. oh jillian. i wanted to rip her eyes out in 30 seconds. i LOVE that you drew on her. especially a pirate hat. Don’t waste your time. I was on twitter ages ago and it was only fun when a few friends were on, which was usually a holiday. Otherwise, it’s lost on anyone who actually has things to get done during the day. Prolly why so many celebs are on. I had friends who would think it funny to tweet about 60 times in a row. That got old and it took longer to see what other friends were tweeting. FB is distracting enough. I was going to send you a note and let you know that one of your followers was the big winner in Sergy’s fundraiser. I feel very lucky but Terrie is right on….Sergy is the luckier one! He is going to be surrounded by so much love! We have two kids that are adopted and two that are biological and it’s all the same love. My husband was also adopted when he was three so adoption is very close to my heart. I am so happy that they are closer to bringing him home. I can’t wait to see pictures of him in his new home surrounded by his brother and sisters and his Mom and Dad. 🙂 1. Love that I’m excited about the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie from your drawing on Jillian. My husband told me that twitter is like facebook without the games. I’m not a fan of Twitter. To me blogs are written with purpose. Twitter isn’t. Just my thought for what it is worth…. You should do twitter. It will increase your traffic. just sayin’ I’m trying to increase traffic and all the cool blog experts say to do it. That’s all I have. And, I tweeted about Parenthood (the movie) yesterday as being TRUTH. Great minds, eh? meg–i too would spend the $100 on 1.5 sports bras. ha! we watched parenthood on on demand a few nights ago. loved. it. loved. but i like the tv show better. Well, I’m really not one to be offering advice, given that I didn’t make it through the full 30 days myself, but I say go for it and don’t worry if it’s supposed to be 30 days in a row. You’ll feel accomplished and you’ll feel better physically. Me, I’m a wimp and I’m going to stick with my fat-burning Pilates, which I actually love. That reminds me… parenthood is the best ever…especially the roller coaster of it all. Don’t waste your time with Twitter. it is boring…truly. An outlet for way too much randomness, if you ask me. I am so with you on the sports bra! Why are they so expensive? Next up you should try P90X. Totally worth it. I stopped reading this post so I could say this. Her boobs hang out all the time. It drives me nuts. Maybe you should use your gift card to get her a bra! I vote for no Twitter. Don’t get me wrong; I’m on Twitter and I use it. But honestly, it’s just one more thing to manage. You don’t need it. You have such a great group of loyal followers to your blog and we’re going to read you no matter what. So I really don’t think you need to add Twitter to your mix. But if you do, I’ll follow you. Didn’t want to be a downer but I have a 30 vid of Jillian’s and it totally bulked me up and I didn’t lose any weight. She actually says in her video that your muscles will get bigger and that your bigger leg muscles will make your ankles look smaller (IKIDYOUNOT). Love the drawing on Jillian, LOL! Very… original. Hehe. My son and daughter-in-law did the whole Biggest Loser thing, all the dvds and such (they lost 75 and 65 pounds!)… I asked DIL and she says it means ripped in 30 days. I like twitter–not as universal as FB (which I quit eight weeks ago and don’t miss: )–can check out posts of people I follow…don’t have all the family/friends following and I can just keep up or check out what friends in the blogosphere are up to. Did you watch the Royal Wedding Meg.? I think you should get a Twitter and give it a go! You can just tweet things about your day and talk to all your readers and stuff. I make it sound boring, but it’s really not. I’d follow you! I think I need to go back and watch Parenthood now that I am in the thick of it, I forgot how funny that movie was 🙂 I think Jillians dvd is for 30days, but 30 workouts would be the same im guessing as you only doi it once a day… ? I vote no for Twitter. um meg….Im pretty sure jillain is pissed you drew all over her, but I love it!!! Dont worry I wont forward this to her…hahahaha The video WAS awesome and I cant wait to see the next one! I thought it was so cute that julie won your hoodie….fate man…fate!
