We have been blessed recently with a scholarship to the YMCA. They have a campaign for healthy kids that helps people pay for their membership.

James and I get to go to the Y for $3 a month. Isn’t that a huge blessing?

I need to get in shape and I want James to love being active, so this is wonderful.

One of my friends at church, exercises at the Y and she and I have been going a couple times of week and working out. I have been using the treadmill and enjoying it.

We also lift weights. They have all the machines to target different muscle groups.

I needed workout tennies, and James needed water shoes for walking to the pool.

When I went out on Thursday (all by myself!) my goal was to find those two items. I prayed that I’d find something that was affordable.

At the thrift store, I found a pair of slip on sandals for James for .99 and a pair of nearly new Reebok shoes for me for 2.99. (Used shoes as long as they are like new don’t bother us.)

What a blessing! Both things we needed for less than I could have purchased water shoes for James.

I wore my tennies on Thursday afternoon while we exercised and they were so comfy.
