No, huh-uh... this didn't annoy me in the slightest...(please note heavy doses of sarcasm)

So as you might have figured out Justin got a wild hair and turned our blog private, sorry there was no warnin!, If you haven't been invited to the blog it's because I don't have your email address and I didn't start this MESS! BUT I know it's for our cyber safety and scary things are happening to people online everyday. I see where he's coming from (can't throw him under the bus completely) but it is a pain to get everyone invited back who does like to look in from time to time. I apologize if you got cut OFF cold turkey....If you'd like to see the blog I will let you just let me know. Maybe via Facebook. or does this automatically post to facebook so you all can see it there anyways? huh... either way fb me if you want back in and I will put your email in the list to accept a personal invitation to our "oh so non-accessable" blog. I love you dear. Thanks for looking out for our safety.(being serious now) Because you're right, not being safe from identity theft, stalkers and perverts aren't risks where I'd like to hear "I told you so". So though it wasn't my favorite change in the world I know it's probably a good idea. And THAT as they say is THAT!

Just in case you don't open my emails... oh I'm gonna get the info to you, whether you like it or NOT!

http://news.yahoo.com/video/health-15749655/17996093 it's only a couple minutes of minutes long. humor me...

ARE YOU GETTING THIS!!! I've had ALL of THESE, it's time for a change!... IS YOLI POSITIONED in the right place at the RIGHT time?? WoW! You guys know me, you know how much I love my sweets. Just think of how powerful education is...for me to make these kinds of changes in my personal growth and my health. I'm just becoming educated on the harmful effects of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, caffeine, etc... The studies are saying that caffeine is the new tobacco!! I see it... I REALLY SEE IT.

Everywhere you look you see someone with a coffee, monster, red bull, or pop... ALL this adds up to is artificial energy and a chemical dependence. Do you think sugar addictions are different than tobacco, heroin, or other deadly chemical dependencies? I'm guessing ALL of you will read that last line and think, "wow, she is really dramatic, comparing sugar to heroin? she's lost it." Well here is the similarity I'd like to show you, obesity, heart disease and diabetes are steadily on the rise, these are serious medical diseases (of course some people are genetically predisposed to anyways) for which sugar and other chemicals contribute dramatically too. Do people die from these diabetes? Unfortunately yes... Is obesity a real problem for our country and our children? You know the answer to that... Do we have entire shows dedicated to weight loss? (biggest loser- in it's nineth season or something like that) We need to know how we can do this better.

As I got into Yoli I knew I'd found something good for us and our kids, I didn't know then the dramatic impact Yoli would have on me...just through educating myself and finding out why I felt like crap all the time. Now I know why dragging myself out of bed made me physically angry, why I get shaky in the middle of the day (hypoglycemia- can show itself as a prediabetic symtom). As time has gone on you have seen me get more and more passionate about being part of the SOLUTION, and I promise I'm going to continue learning and showing others how they can be part of the solution as well. Again, I share cause I care. LOVE YOU.... Jennis



Some of you will be ready to hear this, other won't. And that's ok. :)

Staying baLANced....

This picture is of Us with Daren in Vegas.
And the other one is me finding my name on the recognition boards at the convention in Vegas.

So I know that life can't ONLY be about Yoli ALL the time. I just really believe in it and want to be successful. Lots of people have been good examples of being balanced, my family, my friends, and Friday it was Founder Daren Falter. He came with me last Friday to do a couple of presentations to some gyms that I have been talking to about Yoli. It was a really good learning experience and also a treat to get to rub shoulders with one of the rock stars of YOLI. But Daren is really good fun to be around, not only does he rock the guitar at our meetings, and have the nicest wife and kids he has good stories. As we drove to our appointments we got to talk business (I would have been really happy to talk business the whole time) but he was telling me stories about scouting and all sorts of things that I got to laugh at, and when I called him the night before to discuss our times and agenda for the following morning he was reading scriptures and praying with his family... When we got in the car I would ask him business questions, he'd answer them quickly and proficiently and then start onto some other funny story... I tried to be all about Yoli and he was just happy to talk business and ALSO life outside of Yoli and I love that about ALL our founders. They are all about living LIFE to it's fullest, I have to work hard for a bit so I can earn that coconut money (sitting on the beach drinking from a coconut while the money just pours in--hahaa) So it's NOT ALWAYS about Yoli and I appreciate the fact the He has a family life and hobbies outside of Yoli. Well rounded people are much more successful in my eyes... BUT on a YOlI note.

I was getting the kids out of the bath and Justin handed me the phone and said, "It's Michelle from the Gym" and so I took the phone and she proceeded to tell me that She and her partner have decided to get ON BOARD with Yoli!!! I am sooo stoked... I have lots to learn Daren shows up and close a deal that I have been working on for 4 months. Just goes to show he's a pro. I know that signing a gym will give me credibility and momentum... WAHHHOOO....I know they are the first of many but this is a big deal for me so I wanted to share it with you...
I know the potential Yoli has to be viral and I love that my hard work is paying off. I have been praying and trying to keep to priorities straight so I have the Lord's help in my effort. I can't take credit for this success. I know I can't do ANYTHING on my own... It is odd however I have prayed for Justin's success in his work for years, but I have never prayed to the Lord for success in my work. Sure success with my children, my calling, my friendships, but never work. I'm not asking for money, I'm asking for direction in my learning, and to have his hand in my efforts. BUT. It still feels foreign and a little odd to ask for success. I feel wrong for doing it?! Is that weird? Feedback needed. thanks guys... I do love this work, I finally found my fit. It's all coming together and I can't wait to see what else is to come. :) Love you all! Jennis
This picture is of founder and President Robby Founder and this statement has become my new motto, cause I've been on fire since the convention and now it's getting REALLY FUN!! people are gathering to watch me burn!! burn baby burn!! :)

This is my first blog post by phone! This is insanity...Justin made us meatloaf for dinner. how's that for an update? All by himself!

I love mommy she loves me, we love daddy yes'ur eee, he loves us and so you see we are a HAPPY FAMILY!

OOOHhh lets see....We had our family pictures done 2 weeks ago and lets just say it wasn't the experience I had planned in my mind. I didn't stress and "over do" my hair or makeup we just got ready and went to a local park. So far so good...BUT once we got out of the car in took a sharp turn for the worst. We planned it for nice mid morning so kids could sleep in but not be hungry or ready for naps and yada yada, the lighting was perfect, beautiful day, photographer was VERY patient and for what she was working with man did we get some good ones, cause out of a hundred I was really sure we got a cute one of Justin and I. I was sure that was it! However. I guess they did smile simutaneously at one point cause here they are. Let me just ask forgiveness for the pants I'm wearing cause they honestly looked ok in the house... then at pictures they were kind of driving me nuts and I wish my khaki PANTS were clean, anywho. Documentation that we attempted to display a loving family for a picture I could put on my wall. If you notice the pictures with alllll the kids crying, this is how the morning really went. praise Trina for putting up with our cute mess of children. I am framing the nice one in a 10x14 ish size and then the sad ones will go under it in 5x7 frames with justin and I in the middle. I think it's necessary to show the process, cause it's through our trials that we find out how to have happiness in the end right? We struggle and then there's happiness. you can't have one without the other. I'll leave you with that! Thanks guys. can't wait to have a minute when it's not 2 am to look at what you've been upto. I sure love this family! Jennis
