Healthy Living Leads to Healthy Eating

As a part of the new year we have stepped our game up as a family. This means that everyone in our family is eating better. This also means that we are helping support each other no one is left out and no one sits on the sideline not helping. This initiative to get healthy is not only better for our bodies but is helping us come closer as a family. It is true there are times we are at each others throats but we are working to be slower to anger as we progress our lifestyle changes.

The unity piece we have seen in how willing the kids are to help prepare meals and snacks. The first time we did some snack preparation we allocated jobs to each of the kids and they were eager to help us. To go with this there was not fighting everyone knew what they had to do and focused on getting their job done.

This week we did some meal preparation as well where we made pepper and ground turkey mix with brown rice and veggies. She also did another mean with chicken, carrots and sweet potato that baked in the oven together. Needless to say it is delicious, surprisingly filling, and best of all healthy.

To go with all of the healthy living Megan has been on a cleaning/de-cluttering kick and... I LOVE IT!!! Below is just a few example of her getting it done and taking some names while she is at it.
