Going even greener...

So my dad would tell you that I am a tree hugging, earth loving, oatmeal eating freak. He likes to tease me about my attempts at being as green and earth friendly as possible. I wouldn't go as far as to say I am a freak but I would admit to hugging a tree and definitely loving this earth. I will do anything and everything I can to lessen my carbon footprint to help preserve natures beauty for my children and their children to enjoy. I like to think that the lives Travis and I pride ourselves on living will cause a ripple effect. Perhaps someday everyone will understand how doing very little can have a HUGE impact. So this is my next attempt at being a little bit greener. I have already been trying to eliminate the use of plastic lunch baggies from our lives but these will seal the deal. I have been working on making reusable sandwich and snack baggies for the kids lunch. I am going so far as to make stylish ones that even Trav will use at work for his lunch. I think they are going to be great at saving a few extra pennies at the store but more importantly this will remove tons of plastic baggies from the landfills and oceans. My kids get the idea and love them.

So dad I have taken one more step towards totally becoming a "Green Freak"!
