Welcome to the blog. You have an awesome sis in law!! And, I can't believe how much your hubby looks like her, you can tell they are siblings. How fun! You had a great work out today! Way to go. I hope you enjoy the blog!

Oooo, where did you do spinning??? I have always wanted to try spinning. I hear it kicks your butt (and I bet it hurts your butt, too!)

I have seen those infomercials for hip hop abs, I could never do that. I have no coordination. I am clumsy and have no rhythm. But I am sure you have rock hard abs. I figure I do not need to worry about mine since I will never be able to see them again!

My brother is CUTE.

Welcome to the blog! Nice workout! I really want to try the hip hop abs. It looks fun, but mostly I want to look like the people on the dvd :D

I've always wanted to try Hip Hop Ab's! I'm such a sucker for infomercials. Next time you're in town you'll have to bring it along and have an Ab's party at Kelli's.

Sounds good...we will have an abs party. It's a lot of fun! Thank you everyone for making me feel so welcome!
