Family Goal: This week, plan and do a physically active family project together.
Carol Frazey - The Family Nutrition and Exercise Expert
Family projects get members talking and give everyone a common goal. As a family, discuss what you would like to do. This could be cleaning out the garage, building a snowperson, building a fort or tree house, or helping an elderly neighbor clean-up her yard. Brainstorm for ideas, and then make a date. Remember to have fun and allow each member of the family to do a part of the project that he/she enjoys!

Good afternoon. Luke and I just got done doing our work out of push-ups, crunches, and weight lifting (which Carol increased for my goal of the week). I would have to say that we both feel pretty good. It’s fun watching Luke try to do a push-up – it’s so dramatic. He sounds like a constipated elephant trying to pass a peanut factory. I know, I know, you can do without the visuals, but that’s what comes to mind.
