February finds me in the midst of a healthy and active change, trying out new recipes, and searching for crafts to create. 
As I reach my first weight goal (Feb. 9), I'm deciding on my next goal. I like the idea of setting a date with my goal because it gives me a mental goal line to reach. I am so close to my initial goal and am hoping that I can shed those few last pounds by then. Will I be crushed if I don't? Nah, I have seen and feel so many positive changes in me that I wasn't anticipating. I'm going to "keep on, keeping on." :)

February Crafting
It's the month of L-O-V-E and all things hearts, red and pink. My house has been decorated for the past few weeks because I just love to decorating for holidays.
I did Valentine's cards for the first time last year with Parker. They were cute, store bought Toy Story ones that had a bookmark that came with each one. This year, I wanted to make something with him for his Valentine's Day cards. I decided on making crayon hearts from crayons that I had at school. Pictures of this project will be on my next blog.
While we were at Michaels craft store, we came across some Valentine's foam crafts for kids. Parker chose a Valentine's house. I figured, hey we make a gingerbread house for Christmas, why not a Valentine's house for Valentine's Day. I just punched out all the foam pieces and then we had a family night putting it all together.
