The 14 Day Challenge!




Hello!  Hope everything is well with you and your family.  

How was your weekend?  

Saturday was 
BEAUTIFUL!

For our weekend, we grabbed the boys and loaded up the car and headed to Caprock Canyon State Park for some geocaching!  We met up with our favorite friend/co-worker/famous geocacher "Self Service" and had a BLAST!  When we were trying to decided to go or stay on Saturday - KV went into one of our son's dark room - and there he sat with 3 (yes! "3") screens in front of him... his T.V., computer and his phone!  We quickly decided YES! and headed out!
We added 11 more caches to our grand total of 463 geocaches - (breaking over 200 in a total of finding caches for the year of 2012!)  We enjoy geocaching - our favorite hobby that allows us "screen-free" time with our family!

About 3 weeks ago, my 15 year old son and I took the 14 Day Challenge of washing our face with OIL!  After doing some research; here is a great link here and here on the oil facial cleansing program - WE decided (I decided and my son -with a bribe of $20 - which proved to be a great investment) to take the challenge. We washed our faces each night with oil.  
WOW!  It has made a BIG difference! Now - he is still a teenager - but even HE noticed the difference in his face and complexion!  
We will continue to use this 
facial cleanser from now on!  
He is using a 30/70% mixture and I am using a 10/90% of castor oil and sunflower seed oil.  I have VERY dry skin  - but now my skin is balanced... or it feels better "all over"!  
Also discovered Tea Tree Oil - we use this along with some witch hazel for larger blemishes and BAM!  -they are gone quickly!  Better than the old "alcohol" method!  I have thrown out my Pond's Cold Cream that I have used since high school - (a LONG time) for this new oil cleansing method; it makes a great make-up remover also as it cleans and moisturizes! It's a keeper at our house!
Also, over the weekend, worked on some CARD SWAPS - so that'll be on the agenda for up-and-coming posts.  This month we are making for local cancer patients and will donate extras to the Cancer Care Card organization that sends out cards each month!  Can't wait to show you!  Also I will have completed the GMC DIET (7 days) later this week and will let you in on the results... Come back soon!


Thanks for stopping by - remember to hug the ones you love the most, until next time...
