Swing Station Studio: April 2010
http://swingstationstudio.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 29, 2010. Changes, Day 1. So today officially marks Day 1 of Operation Change. I got up with my husband this morning at the hellishly early time of 6:30 (! And after doing all the required measurements (upper right arm, lower abdomen, quick step on the scale, etc.) I am now digesting my morning meal replacement "shake." These are my thoughts so far:. 1) I had no idea my thighs were the same circumference as my husband's. NOT acceptable! No, no I don't. I am not good at making these kinds ...

The Crazy Yates: June 2011
http://theyatesclan.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 24, 2011. Hanging out with Daddy. When we lived in Fort Worth, we had talked about taking the kids to one of these dinner shows because there was one fairly close in Dallas but never did. Since we are near Dallas for the Summer we decided the 2.5 hour drive was totally worth it to go see it. We went with a bunch of our other Pinnacle friends that are out here too. This is the Dallas Castle, the kids were so excited. Jocelyn was talking non stop about getting to see a real princess. The day w...

The Crazy Yates: November 2011
http://theyatesclan.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 11, 2011. 3 days for 32 meals to Freeze. So after being hopelessly addicted to Pinterest. For recipe ideas I was inspired to bite the bullet and do some freezer meals. I have always wanted to do a months worth of cooking in one day, so on those days that I really don't feel like cooking I could just grab something yummy and homemade out of my freezer. I gathered as many family favorite recipes that I thought would be good to freeze and made a huge grocery list. Initially. Then shredded a...

The Crazy Yates: February 2013
http://theyatesclan.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 11, 2013. Well as much as I would like to say that after coming home and getting settled, our lives slowed down, unfortunately that was not the case. If anything it became crazier.. The kids having fun around the house. That was one of those questions that led to other questions which I was not prepared to answer and ended up changing the conversation. Amazing picture of the four oldest kiddos actually watching conference. With the puppies getting larger we decided they needed more spac...

The Crazy Yates: January 2013

Tuesday, January 29, 2013. After a few weeks getting situated in our new surroundings and stocking up the fridge from the mess that was left by the guys, we were finally ready to get out and see what fun things we could do in Houston. Houston Zoo trip with friends. Swimming at the pool. One of my favorite parts of traveling out with Dave for the summer is that we are never out there without great friends close by. The kids build great friendships and I do too! Having fun with friends. On our way home we ...

The Crazy Yates: October 2011
http://theyatesclan.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 24, 2011. This year we were fortunate enough to be gifted the massive pumpkin from my Mom and Todd's garden. It was the only pumpkin that grew and obviously it stole all the nutrients from the other plants because it is HUGE! We decided it would be a fun family home evening activity to carve it. The kids designed the face for it. Ethan picked out the eyes and Jocelyn picked out the mouth. Caitlyn. Wanted squiggles so we settled for some square eyebrows instead :). Tuesday, October 18, 2011.
