Finally Posting!

Okay, so I am finally announcing our contribution to the "Can't Wipe" campaign.


It took a while for us to come up with what we were going to change in our lives. But after some thought, discussion and peer pressure, we have all come up with something!

Mike has decided to stop drinking caffeine and is considering giving up soda all together. It has been over a week and he is caffeine free! And he hasn't had a soda since Sunday!

Leigha has decided to give up caffeine and to include reading the Book of Mormon each day. So far she is caffeine free, but she is still trying to come up with reading time.

My kids decided that the best thing for me to give up is swearing. So for three months, every swear word I say will cost me a dollar. The kids will split the swear fund at the end of the three months. In the last 12 days I have only lost $7!!! Pretty good, huh!
I also am going to try and be healthy, including exercise and drinking more water.....and it's kind of a rollover from preparing for my bike trip with Isabelle. But I'm counting it! I have ridden my bike for the last 3 days for a total of 12+ miles and I have drunk 2 gallons of water since Monday!

Jakey says he is giving up eating vegetables and wearing clothes. His idea, encouraged by Mike's hysterical laughing. He has been wearing clothes though so that may end up being a happy ending for all involved.
As far as eating vegetables goes.....he never eats them anyway, so he may need to switch that one around and eat a vegetable every day......but probably not.

So....that is the Salvitt's contribution so far!!!
Wish us luck!
