Right now my mom and sisters are into getting healthy and fit so what better way to, by doing this 30 Day Shred together! Half of us are doing the 30 DS and the other half are doing their own things, however, we are still doing it all together. It is so much easier to work out and lose weight when you have support. We started a secret Facebook group of just us Banner girls so we have a place to lend support and updates of our fitness status. So when does this start?? Monday!!! (Good thing the double birthday party/Mother's Day events are Sunday.) That day is going to be the start of a very, very long month. But, hopefully rewarding! Not only am I going to be doing the 30 DS, but I am preparing for a Dash for Diabetes 5K that happens in TWO WEEKS!!<br /></span></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 160px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 227px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5604014578675325298" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2PlMDhb36ICv_Fy3BXI_zRFxvKzR5z28Fdd6CTHMhmPvAWsJZjXlWTP4YS2WubwtqVsw7Snr55ahLJ3KcaMxfIc3ay8zev3jlGZRXLrko3A1gy7NdyWje9OP0qYk1ZapYvltjSsVaqn8/s400/30DS.jpg" /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">My dieting secrets:</span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Make your own rules that fit your own lifestyle and body. Dieting is different for everybody and the results are never the same for every person. It takes time to figure out what works best. I cannot tell you how many different dieting techniques I have tried!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Set goals. This one is pretty huge. Never set vague goals or put time constraints on the goals. You will only get discouraged if you start seeing yourself behind in your goal. Weekly goals are awesome! I'm sort of against making goals on how much weight you want to lose. It's best to just have a target weight, but don't make it a priority goal. Instead make goals that can help you lose the weight, they are more fun. Such as, no sweets for 30 days (that one was difficult for me!), run a mile under 10 minutes, drink 64 fl. oz. of water per day, etc. You get the idea.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Have rewards. I find it a lot easier to finish a goal if I know there is a reward for me in the end. Since I am doing a lot of working out this month, I am allowed to have a piece of candy IF I workout that day.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Those are the main ones that have helped me lose weight thus far. Do you have any tips of your own?? Only a little more to go! GET FIT!</span>Cam and Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17771997712555857835noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066608665848154764.post-41047592115438738832010-11-11T17:47:00.000-08:002010-11-22T14:29:52.703-08:00The Pilot.<div align="center"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Just wanted to do a much needed shout out to my <span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc0000;">main man</span>!

Whenever she is at a thrift store she buys old plates and tea cups with matching saucers to use as a way to gift some treats. You can put some cookies on a nicer looking plate that only cost you 50 cents instead of an ugly paper plate. So when I was at the D.I. looking for cheap frames to refurb. I found a few things I could use as gifts. So here is my version.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhExb-Wqu2c-C-ehKq8O3r2nyE3mYJPU5kSB3Rig4D-MJ409eiyFHWBuqo52Zz81PGVjNJ4nE8lylmuPKbwpcFnjIDcaqC2ifRcOg9uguTkHovWIMGjfl54iLB_tWfqwvibwfNDyH0u98g/s1600/IMG_5699.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519857726763470002" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhExb-Wqu2c-C-ehKq8O3r2nyE3mYJPU5kSB3Rig4D-MJ409eiyFHWBuqo52Zz81PGVjNJ4nE8lylmuPKbwpcFnjIDcaqC2ifRcOg9uguTkHovWIMGjfl54iLB_tWfqwvibwfNDyH0u98g/s400/IMG_5699.jpg" /></a><br />The one I liked the most from Good Things Utah was the teacup with a cupcake sitting inside, clear wrapping paper, with a bow. However, I didn't have time to make some cupcakes, so I just bought a bag of candy and filled the cup and saucer. Best part; All together it cost me $4 and it took me maybe 5 minutes to put together. If you want to go further you can tie on a little tag. I thought it turned out so cute! What do you think?<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipa_k92hZ6ybWtubVuyOU6-GV521ruINJtK0d4UBB7ahBm4DdgAcVuAfqAnIrGiFuF7P7v8z_toDsMjFA08PthlSEV3EZ0K-aZYzkp0s4saolFndN802pLypyT4wWzNlagKlZlovMAY2E/s1600/IMG_0115.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519857584591086674" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipa_k92hZ6ybWtubVuyOU6-GV521ruINJtK0d4UBB7ahBm4DdgAcVuAfqAnIrGiFuF7P7v8z_toDsMjFA08PthlSEV3EZ0K-aZYzkp0s4saolFndN802pLypyT4wWzNlagKlZlovMAY2E/s400/IMG_0115.jpg" /></a> All wrapped up! Forgive the ugly sad bow. I really wanted to use this ribbon, but when I looked in my ribbon box I only had a little left. Sad, I know. All my other ribbon seemed to clash so I had to use this one. Hope this gives you good ideas to use for thank you's, birthday's, or even just thinking of you gifts. <br /><div></div></div>Cam and Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17771997712555857835noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066608665848154764.post-92070314441092781372010-08-12T20:08:00.001-07:002010-08-12T20:18:51.086-07:00The summer I haven't shown you: Lake Powell<div align="center"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Here are just a few pictures from our vacation in Lake Powell this year.

And what better day to celebrate finding out that we are adding a new addition to the family, but on our anniversary!! Haha....just kidding. Don't trust me for atleast a good two or three more years. This year we laid low on celebrating and just spent time at the cabin for a night and then ate at the BEST steakhouse in SLC. If you haven't been yet, then you need to try Donovan's. It is soooo good! Pricey, but good. I am so grateful and blessed to be married to a guy that completely understands me and supports me in everything I do.

In this picture he is trying to get up to his toy alligator that is sitting on the window sill. How he saw it, I have no idea! It's too bad he put a hole in it and started to spread batting all over.

So if you have any suggestions let me know. Right now we are working on 'rollover' and 'play dead' which he almost has down pretty well. (I can't wait to show his best friend, Emily.) The only rule is that it has to be physically possible for a small dog to actually do the trick. Right now I have been receiving things like: put a tutu on him and teach him to twirl, or balance a beach ball on his nose, or jump rope. Thanks again Judy. The jump rope I may try. First I need to teach him to jump. Then he can jump rope and jump through a hoop! <br /></span><br /></div>Cam and Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17771997712555857835noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066608665848154764.post-90401210513835332492010-03-23T07:19:00.000-07:002010-03-23T07:57:37.928-07:00Crayon Tin<div align="center"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Currently, I teach the five year old children in Primary at church and they LOVE to color.

You can also use fabric for this as well, your preferrence. Tip: fabric does sit more flush when you mod podge. Paper tends to wrinkle very easily. My sister made fun of me because I love to mod podge so much, but it is just so dang easy and it makes things so much cuter!

My lucky day! However, it wasn't a quarter. Bummer! Instead, it was a little silver coin with a smiley face on it that said "SUPER STUDENT AWARD". I have to admit it made me feel good, even though it really wasn't for me. I'm guessing it was left under one of the seats from when I got the car last June. It still made me think that I am ALMOST done with school...atleast for now. Only eight more credits left after this semester, which is done in four weeks!!!

I have been working on this beauty for a couple of weeks. Although, it shouldn't have taken so long...thank you work and school. I finished the actual headband a few days ago and then I made the flower last night. The great thing about the flower is that I made it into a pin so I can remove it and exchange it with another. So now I just need to make tons of different flowers. Not to brag or anything, but I think it is way cute.

He started school today at UVU, majoring in Aviation Science. I decided to get Cam a new Pilot headset so that he doesn't have to borrow the community headsets at UVU. I found it disgusting to think of Cam having to use a headset that had someone else's mouth touching the mic. I was able to successfully surprise him after making up multiple lies and twists. I think he looks pretty good! I am so excited for Cam to be excited about doing aviation...and it doesn't hurt that I have always been crazy about planes and collecting little planes forever! I can't wait to see where this little adventure takes us! I'm so proud of my Pilot!</span></div><br /><br /><div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423755480708408434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOgz8DFTrhcQA0XO1H1EkZsIp5C4-gX1YMbCNzmaLoy8GkRl0nRzpx0cTk8Ci1PGZLIb9TnaAUepHlNG5inu4SyLga7k4s7hUDHxt68QHV2-F1nc9dClEY08Ggn7hbE3v5AZ2G5tF8ve4/s400/DSC01002.JPG" /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">We are so blessed to have such great families to spend the holidays with!

Well, more like 7 in dog years. He has graduated from the Purina Puppy Chow and is now on to Purina Little Bites! He is starting to understand some commands finally! The biggest ones are: OUT, DOWN, TREAT, OUTSIDE, and well, that's it. As you can tell he is a pretty stubborn dog, but slowly getting the hang of things. We didn't do much for his birthday since we will be out of town for the night, but we went to the Doggy Bakery yesterday and got him some treats.<br /></span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQykBRDxlVwkClDsVY-wERQtNX8B-mzuC_eI6KF5Xshj4Ktprs7rwcdqUgX36EzMYfcULlBDDzAShCRdoOsYMSO7AqGx9Ql2ry7RhAsz6fHyI22jiLlVg76SUTI6Wiw_hL_kga-8R_7O4/s1600-h/cooper.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423264183564827202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQykBRDxlVwkClDsVY-wERQtNX8B-mzuC_eI6KF5Xshj4Ktprs7rwcdqUgX36EzMYfcULlBDDzAShCRdoOsYMSO7AqGx9Ql2ry7RhAsz6fHyI22jiLlVg76SUTI6Wiw_hL_kga-8R_7O4/s400/cooper.bmp" border="0" /></a>Cam and Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17771997712555857835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066608665848154764.post-29047254615623451642009-12-12T08:39:00.000-08:002009-12-12T09:18:29.712-08:00Number 19.<span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">That's right.
