Blessings for the Jackman Family

I was put in as the YW Secretary at the end of school.  I was blessed with many blessings for my family, including spiritual and financial.  I was also told it was in preparation to future callings.  Talk about ominous.  Anyway, since then, Ben has been able to work @ Goodwin Cabinets, I have become the part time music teacher @ Bloomington Hills Elementary, become the YW president, and my husband has also been offered a teaching job!  Oh, and when Carter split his head open in a couple spots and got 6 staples, everything went smoothly and healed great!  We are very blessed!

One Week to Go!

It's the end of week 4 for this challenge!  Logan and Little Ben are the only two still going.  I even gave up on the jumping jacks.  My shoulders have been so sore!  I am impressed that I went from being a little sore after 20, to being a little sore after 80.  Although 80 seemed to be the kicker.  Balian still thinks he is doing the challenge, 3 days a week. lol  It has been interesting and I can't believe any of my kids are doing it.  It just seems like torture, but Logan wants a new pair of sneakers. :)  She is determined to finish so she can get some. Next week...100 jumping jacks, squats, burpees, push-ups, and sit-ups!  Yay.

Challenge

My Fam is doing it too, but Ben pooped out after the second day and by the 4th day I changed to just jumping jacks. :)  Yes, wimpy, I know, but I do NOT want to build any muscles right now. So, I am just doing the jumping jacks, and very okay with it.  My kids are amazing, but this week 3, doing 60 of everything, is getting tough.  Especially for my older kids who are in knee and ankle braces. lol
