Feast your eyes on the wonderfully prepared bean salad and cornbread. Believe it or not it was a very delicious dinner made for two. Also notice from where we quench our thirsts. And yes Johnny Pleasant I am giving up Coke...sort of... well maybe...just one more sip... please. Seriously, the juicer is very good. The bean salad was very tasty, and so was the ham and cheese sandwich (not pictured). I must admit I have not totally committed to the natural diet, but I am eating much smarter. Aly is much stronger than I am. But we already new that. Life on the healthy trail is a bit crazy right now because it takes a lot of time to prepare a meal when you are as inexperienced as we are. We are still figuring out what we like and do not like. My struggle seams to come from a distaste in veggies, fruits, grains, nuts and seeds. I asked George Evjen what he thought that Aly and I were having for dinner, and he responded with "twig soup". I thought that was pretty funny. That meal is for tomorrow. Anyway we are adjusting to life in the Natural world quite nicely, although we are still working out the chinks.
Please remember Aly in your prayers this week as she recovers from surgery. She goes in on Monday to have the Lymph Nodes tested. Also don't forget to remember our good friends Rachel and Klint Pleasant as Rachel is also going in for surgery on Monday in Michigan. I will try to give you all an update by Wednesday, because Aly will have to stay overnight in Lubbock.

Definatly remembering you guys in prayer this week! I'm really impressed with your new love for whole foods too.. Hopefully healthier before you know it! I'm sure baby Thrift is liking it already.

Prayers for you are being lifted up from the church in St. Louis this day!
Brian, all I can tell you is that Rachel was the original food nazi in our family. It just goes to show you that the kid with a masters degree in exercise science, who eats organic and lived the life of a personal trainer is the one who gets a brain tumor. Go figure? Meanwhile, when I order my 2 cheeseburgers, fries and coke at McDonalds I will avoid supersizing them in my efforts to cut down!
Grace and Peace,
