The finish of our week with no TV!

Well I told everyone about our week with no TV, I just wanted to let you all know what a success it was! We loved having time at night together. We actually decided we'd keep doing it. We're only going to watch TV on the weekends because who can give up college football right(Mark's thought process). So here's what else we did through out the week! We ate family dinner at our table(which we never do!) and loved it! We made lists of things that we're planning on doing to the house. We had the missionaries over and had a discussion with two great investigators in our home which was AMAZING! We made plans to run a 5k within the year(marsingche you are my inspiration!) and have started run/walking together. Mark got our Nike/ipod thingys running so now we have a way to track how far, how long, and just about anything else you'd like to know about your workout, that's the first picture it's the little thing on my shoe, it's run through your ipod. It was a great investment if you want to know details of your run(thanks Reid!).


We also got the rest of the big frames up on the family wall, and the pictures came today, so now the family wall actually has family pictures up in the frames!!

We also decorated for fall, our favorite season of the year, our whole house if full of orange and red leaves and pumpkins, we love fall decorations!


I also cleaned out the sun room!! You cannot only see the table, you could eat at it too. In fact we did eat there one night with the missionaries! The picture is only of the table, but I cleaned the whole room, that was a two nap process. . .And of course last but probably most of all, we enjoyed playing with our little Tennessee fan!

Like I said already, we loved our week and are planning to continue it!

Yeah for the 5K! They are a lot funner than you think. And you feel so good when you've finished.
Elliot is quite a cutie. I think that he and Sophie will go well together! :)

The family wall looks wonderful with all of the pictures in the frames! You are quite the decorator-I'm really impressed!! I have so many wedding and family pictures waiting to be framed and hung up...I think you've given me the motivation to do it!

I LOVE the family wall! I've been wanting to print off some Black and White pictures of the kids and put each in a black frame and make a family wall (a surprise for Mark)... but WOW you gave me a whole new vision of what is possible! Now, I'll have to think of what I really want to do... all in due time.

Now you know what my life is like without the boob tube. After 8 years I wouldn't know where to fit it in! I love the family wall. I can't wait to have one of my own. I also love the future quote on your fall decoration.
