Goals!

So Jason and I decided last night that we are going to start going to bed earlier, getting up earlier and working out everyday. Today is the first day and I must say, working out with the Hip Hop Abs video is harder than I thought, especially if you haven't worked out in months! I will survive though! We originally planned on getting out of bed at 7:15, but that turned into 8:00, which isn't too bad, but is something we need to work on. Jason started his morning with The Marine Corps's 22 Minute, No-Weight Warrior Workout and after eating a bowl of instant oatmeal I began with my Hip Hop Abs. I know it will be a struggle the first week or so, but I am excited to be working out again, being in better shape for summer and having more energy!

Please Pray for Dad

Hey everyone,
Yesterday I got an email from my mom saying that my dad had been in an accident. He was training for a job driving bentonite for one of the local bentonite plants out in wyoming and learning to drive a double load. He had been doing just fine driving and on the second load somehow the trailer went off the road into the ditch. My dad scratched up his head a bit, but has no other injuries. The man that was training him was crushed and killed. It has been a very traumatic experience for my dad, who is blaming himself for the man's death. Please remember him in your prayers. I know his faith will pull him through, but this, on top of losing his job and being afraid he'll never drive truck again, have got him pretty emotional. Please pray for him, and also for the family of the man who died. Thanks so much!

Rolls!!

I decided I would try to make rolls for the first time a couple days ago. I just found a recipe online that sounded good and away I went!











I don't think I got enough flour mixed in before putting my hands in it...




















Workin it...


















Perfect!







Dough!








Tada! The finished product!!

So I realized it has been a very long time since I posted anything on here. Here is a quick little update and I will upload some pictures later. Jason has switched his major from Business to Communications with a minor in Business. With that he still hopes to becomes a business consultant. Jason still has about four semesters left and an internship. Mary has started her own business selling PartyLite. PartyLite is a company that sells candles, fragrances, home decor and some food products with Two Sisters Gourmet. If you would like to check out her personal website it is http://www.partylite.biz/mpassarella. Mary just got back from a trip to Billings, MT for a couple training meetings. It was loads of fun, but she dearly missed her Jason :) and is glad to be back home and ready to rock this business!
