We had a great time visiting Breton's parents and hanging out with Casey and Emily and Skyler and Angie! We took the kids to Cobb Ranch to pick pumpkins and go on hay rides!! They had so much fun!!!

NextFit...

Well, I am finally getting around to updating the blog! Life has been super crazy lately and I haven't had much time...So here is the beginning of a long update!!!
So here is the GREATEST new technology in the fitness industry! It is the NextFit Keychain Trainer--the 1st ever on-the-go personal training with the world's top/celebrity trainers! Based on your personal fitness information, training programs are made to give you a completely customized workout program. It is literally like having your own personal trainer in your ear guiding you through your workout every step of the way...coaching you, motivating you, and correcting you! I LOVE IT!!! Anyway, it has been such a fun thing to use and I also get so many great ideas for my classes!



Meeting a few of the Trainers!
Casey, Breton and me with Kathy Smith (aka..."America's Trainer")

Adrienne Reed (star of the PBS show, "Power Yoga") and Kent Burden (author of "Yin Yang Fitness")!



Ron Mathews (Trainer to Hugh Jackman, Jennifer Garner, Eva Mendez... and the mold for the Superman & DareDevil Suits) and Yumi Lee (trainer to Brad Pitt)

These were just a few of the trainers we got to meet! Others on the keychain trainer include: James Herrera (Lance Armstrong's coach), Jeff Galloway (Marathon Olympian), David Kirsch (trainer to Heidi Klum and Victoria Secret models), Bas Rutten (undefeated UFC Heavyweight Champion), Joel Harper (Dr. Oz's trainer/correspondent) etc... etc...

ThE rAciNg CaNe...

On Saturday, September 19th, Kaylin ran in her 1st little race!!! All of us ran in a 5K to give to the kids in the Dominican Republic who don't have any shoes to wear when walking this same distance to get to school! Shoes were donated and all of the proceeds went to these children who are in such need of a pair of shoes!! Kaylin, Savanna, and Blake all ran in the kids 1K race!! It was so cute! Kaylin was SO SO excited...when I first asked her if she wanted to run in the race, she told me, "Mom, I am going to run so fast and win!" Then right before the race all of the kids were doing jumping jacks to warm up. I asked Kaylin if she wanted to join in and she said, "No, I only want to run!" :)





She was running so fast and at the very end she started to walk! She started pointing to her throat and said, "Mom, this is kind of hurting!"

Dax was just along for the ride! He loved wearing the t-shirt and did a little running too!

Kaylin told me that she needs to get a medal when she finishes the race!! (So I brought one from a previous race to give to her when she crossed the finish line!) She did so great and we were SO proud of her!! :)




After, the kids got to play in a bounce house and have their faces painted!!! Such a fun morning for us all!!!
