Sisters' Project Day aka Cousins Day

Monday - the most awesome day of the week! Now synonymous with SPD (for me) and Cousins Day (for Trev and Spence). SPD, Jillian Michaels and Our Best Bites have really changed my life. I only wish that Jillian had more effect on my body than OBB delicious recipes have!

We started small... organized shelves, cupboards, refridgerators, closets, pantries, and toy rooms. Reached new heights in sewing and cooking ablilities with quilt blocks, bread baking, jam making, and trying dozens of new recipes. (I'd like to know how many pounds of chicken, butter, sugar and flour we have used during the past 9 months!) But SPD really ramped up with the addition of Jillian Michaels 30-Day Shred. Jillian showed us the way - to "phone it in" was no longer an option. So, bring out the muscle... and the power tools. Some of the amazing projects proudly completed:

Shelving unit assembly

Shelf Reliance system assembly

Furniture Refinishing

Landscape Management

It has been a good run. Mondays will not be the same without it. Hopefully during summer we can come up with a modified plan to keep us going until School starts up again in the fall.

I regret to say I don't have before and after shots of our projects, but maybe that will be a goal for next year. I did take some pictures this week, but they are no good - my camera is broken, so I'm getting by with no ability to actually see what I'm taking a picture of.
