having a plan.

Once again I have a great link and thoughts from my awesome insurance lady that wants to make sure I'm staying fit.

- Spend some quality time with family and/or friends
- Be active with family/friends – get outside, have your own family or community fun run, play Frisbee, catch, ride bikes, whatever you enjoy
- Be safe! For most of us, it will be hot outside.   If you're outdoors, remember to stay cool, hydrated, and wear sunscreen!
- No celebration is complete without the food! Here are some healthy recipes you can try if you'd like: http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/collections/healthy_4th_recipes.html

I do have to say that I have not been drinking enough water.  I think that's going to be my big push this week.

Last night we all gathered around the table and chatted about being a fit and healthy family....completely instigated by Emmett.  He has decided to start a fitness program with scouts.  As a family, we've decided to all get on board.   We have a plan to start walking as a family in the evenings, reading nutrition labels on waht we buy, eating a lot more fruits and veggies, playing basketball in our cul de sac, and finding ways to be active as a family.

Here's to being a fit and healthy family!

fit. LIFE.
