Beating Cancer with a Paddle!

I mentioned how I was helping to promote the Sweetwater Paddle for the Cure race a while back. Well, the event was this past Saturday and turned out to be a total success!! Over $35,000 was raised for cancer research (all proceeds benefit the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation)!
David took 400 photos at the event.. which doesn't even include what I took with my regular camera. Once I get a hold of all the photos I will post more. With the gorgeous downtown Tampa backdrop, cool water and colorful kayaks, it was hard to take a bad picture!

And we were featured in the St. Pete Times the day before the race. You can view that interesting article here.
Do you kayak? Do you want to? It looks like some fun exercise to me!

After Dinner Challenge (April 7-27)

At the beginning of the month we talked about habits we wanted to work on. Many of us pledged to avoid after-dinner snacking with the "After-Dinner Challenge."

Well, the last day of the challenge came up pretty quickly and is today!

Did you keep up with the challenge? Why or why not? What have you learned in the past 21 days? Do you believe it 21 days is enough to change a habit?

I did not keep up with the challenge most nights. I was busy and unfortunately my dinners turned into multiple snacks many nights. Still, I would like to curb the habit of after-dinner snacking. Just because the official challenge ended doesn't mean it is the end for any of us!
