New Hope and Energy for Spring
Last night I went to a Spring Fashion show at church called Unfading Beauty! The front cover of the program said, "When we live, dress, speak and act in a way that honors God, His Unfading Beauty resounds from us so loudly that it far outshines the superficial beauty of this world." I am glad that we are on this Mission of Fitness together, because I know that this is honoring to God. I love the Spring and have renewed hope for natural and regular exercise. It is so fun to take long walks in the Spring air and watch for the flowers to pop up and see the constant change in the scenery around us. Oh the wonder and beauty of Spring! Through the winter I have exercised enough to maintain my weight and look better, because of the toning etc. I know with the increased activity of Spring I will now shed some pounds - a time of metamorphosis and now I have the tools to keep the weight off once I shed it. We are on a wonderful mission together and I am so pleased that we are walking the journey together! So glad to call all of you FAMILY! Anita

Enjoying Spring Break in Chicago
Hi: I have been enjoying having some extra time for exercise & wellness this week. Our
students are on Spring Break this week, so I took a vacation day Monday which included
go to the fitness center & have a Spa day with 3 friends from our "Mystery Book Club". The
pedicure and massage were a fun treat. I finished my grading for the Winter Trimester today---Yeah!
Jim & I have been enjoying longer walks & the peeking out of spring flowers. We had several wonderful worship experiences during Holy Week & hosted Evelyn & Tom for Easter dinner.
Kathy & Sara--glad you were able to spend some family time together during the Easter holiday weekend. Anita--I hope you had a blessed Easter too! We're looking forward to Marlene's visit to Chicago April 17-20.
Love,
MJH

"On Track Again"
Hi All:
We had a good visit with Sara over the Easter Holiday. Did not do alot of exercise (sitting in the car riding and driving) and ate Great food but to much!!!! Oh well, I am back in my element and back in my routine. I am walking to and from work today as our van is in the shop (long story) I am again doing Zumba and teaching an after school soccer class on Thursdays. I think I will try and walk to work more often as the weather inproves. I am picking up more morning hours in the school office as my friend Sarah the secretary at Franklin has technology training on some new computer programs. We also have kindergarten orientation that I will help with. We have several snow days to make up so our last day is June 9th (half day). I hope all is going well for each of you. I will share a quote from my Weight Watchers Magazine:
"BELIEVING THAT I WILL CONQUER MY EMOTIONAL EATING. EVERY POUND I LOSE MAKES ME MORE AND MORE CONFIDENT THAT I HAVE THE STRENGTH TO FIND NEW WAYS TO COPE."
Love to All,
KRJ

Back in the groove in Wausau
Hi All:
Sorry it has been so long since my last post. We had a wonderful and relaxing vacation in Mexico. The weather was fantastic - in the mid 80's all week and sunny. We enjoyed our "couple" time very much. Wayne and I ran and walked while on vacation. We also ate and drank more than usual, but are back to our routine again. Saturday we attend a "Cruise Party" which was great fun. We danced alot and enjoyed great conversation with friends. We got home about 1:00 a.m. The work weeks for both Wayne & I stay busy. I work in a have a very challenging classroom this year, so keeps me on my toes. We leave tomorrow for Warrensburg to visit with Sara. It will be fun to have family time before she is off to Portland. I hope all are doing well and we send our Easter Blessing to each of you.
Love,
KRJ
