No Sugar?

So, when I was younger (in my teens), I would go every other year without eating sugar and the date that I would start on was January 24th. Jacob and I were talking about it last night and kind of made a spur of the moment decision that we would try to do it together this year with a couple of exceptions. We are allowed to have something on birthdays and holidays. Also if we have an actual organized family home evening night than we are allowed to have a treat with that. I think it is good incentive to hold FHE, which is something we have been struggling with.I'm actually kind of excited to do this. Maybe it will help me lose some of this extra weight I've been hanging onto! I'm also excited that Jacob is doing it with me! It is a lot easier to go without sugar when you have someone doing it with you!

Today is my nephew Kimball's birthday. He is turning 6 today! I think one of the things I miss very most about being close to family, is my nieces and nephews! They grow and change so fast and I really miss being there to see that! I miss being there for their birthdays to celebrate how excited we are to have them in our family! I miss seeing all of the cute things they do and hearing all of the cute things they say! I think families are the best and I'm so glad that families are forever!
