Hello again! We are back with more updates from the My Heart Challenge! Eventually, I will be posting each week, but for now, I am going to catch up with what we have done over the past couple of weeks. From our last post, we started the challenge on the 14th of April.
During this challenge, there are several classes that we will be attending that cover everything from exercise to nutrition to some overall change classes. We attended the first of these on the 19th.
It was the creating change class, that had some good tips on how to get our minds ready to change habits and lifestyle, as well as be good parents during this change. It was very informative.
It was good for us, but we had already started changing! We took the kids bowling on the 18th. Brenda and I have not been bowling for years, and Amelia and Tristan had never been. They had fun just learning how to get the ball down the alley. We went to a place that had bumpers that would raise for the younger kids, and retract for the older ones. It all proved quite a challenge for everyone, and more of a workout than we were expecting. That happens when you swing all of that weight for a couple of hours. We bowled 2 full games and part of a third before we were finished.
