Give Thanks!

Thanksgiving this year was at my house. It was so much fun! My parents came in from A-town, and my brother and sister-in-law came up from Corpus. We had a great time just sitting around and talking with everyone. I realized how blessed I am to have such a wonderful family. I married the handsomest man in the world, have the best parents, and have the greatest brother and sister-in-law that I could imagine! Most importantly, though, I am thankful that each us loves the Lord! It's so much fun being a part of a family that loves Jesus! Life can't get much sweeter!

Quote Worthy

"Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today." ~Jack LaLanne

Last week Mike had 'Parker Seminars'. Jack LaLanne was one of the speakers for the event. For those of you who don't know Jack is not only the guru of health and wellness, but is also a chiropractor. He set a record at the age of 60 doing 1,000 push ups and chin ups consecutively. (I was a little jealous that Mike got to hear him speak.) He has a ton of wisdom! On Friday, Mike got to go to Jack LaLanne's birthday party. He turned 94! I think that it is so amazing that he is in such great shape. I aspire to be like that at 94. Taking walks or jogs with the great, great grandchildren is something I look forward to. Maybe even a little swingfest too, Heather!:)

EXCITING NEWS!!!!

1. My cousin, Jessica, is engaged to be married in December! Congrats, Jess! We are so excited for you, and can't wait to meet him!



2. My dad finished his detox last week, and his results are amazing! He did lose weight, 16 lbs. to be exact, but most importantly he brought his blood pressure way down. The morning of his last day on the detox his blood pressure was 108/80 with a heart rate of 61 beats per minute. (That's better than most 20 year olds.) Dad, we are extremely proud of you and your hard work! Mom, we're rooting for you now!

So Proud. . .

I have to share this story from school. On Monday, we were talking about money in math. We were discussing the presidents on the coins. My kids knew who was on the penny and nickel, but were a little stumped when it came to the dime. Needless to say, I got some "creative" guesses. The guess that cracked me up the most was. . . . . George Clooney! At that moment all I could think of was how proud I was that my class knows their celebrities, but not their presidents. I can't lie, though. I did laugh even though I tried not to. :)

Can you see the resemblance??

Detox #2 Update

Since my experience with Standard Process' detoxification program went so well, I talked my husband into trying it for himself. He's done so great on it! Today is his last day. His experience has been just as good, if not better, than mine. He has more energy, mental focus (which is HUGE since he studies a lot), and is sleeping better than he did before. He's also lost 15 lbs.! I know. . . he didn't need to lose ANY, but he feels great. And no, he doesn't look Ethiopian! He's still got big muscles!!! Babe, you're still ripped!!

Some other family members are also trying out the detox. My dad is currently doing it. In the first seven days, he's lost 10lbs. But, even more awesome than that, within the first two full days of the detox, his blood pressure came down 15 points!!! It's just amazing to me what cleaning out your body can do! I'll keep you updated on his detox when he finishes.

We're so excited about how this detox is so affective, and how it's not harsh. We will definately be using it our practice! It'll do awesome things for our patient's all around health, as well as, help the body hold adjustments longer!
