I have a surprise!

But unfortunately I can't tell you what it is until I get all my ducks in a row. But I've been waiting for this for a long while now.

Sorry if you really hate surprises and the suspense is killing you. If you really want to know then send me an email!

Christmas!

Okay technically it's Tuesday already but it's one in the morning so it's still my Monday.

Anyway, today was a very productive day. I have not one, two, three, but FOUR rooms in my house clean all at the same time! I know this sounds crazy but it's a huge accomplishment for someone with 3 kids. Okay just two and a husband.

So I will post pictures to prove it tomorrow on the real Tuesday.

ANTM

So what have I been doing with my free time off from school?

Watching America's Next Top Model.

And the winner of Cycle 15 is....

I was so glad she won. She is 6' 2'' and was always teased for being too tall and gigantic. She showed them.

ONE WEEK TILL CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!

Just so everyone knows, the holidays are so much better when you have kids!

PS3

Aubrey wants a PS3 for Christmas.

Any reviews for it?

What makes it better than a Wii or any other game system?

Tell me everything you know on the matter will you?

Workout

So Thursday nights are when I teach Buns and Abs and Step at Blue; Adult Dance and Fitness. Tonight was focused more on buns but it went really well and we were able to get through all three step combos before time was up.

Here is what we did for Buns and Abs:
Buns-
20 Right leg lunges at 90 degrees
20 right leg lunges with extended step (So taking a bigger step forward with your right foot and then bringing your left to your right).
10 Curtsy side lunges to the right (face one direction the whole time. Start with feet together, step to the right, position the left foot behind the right as if you are going to curtsy, now dip down or squat, and then bring your feet together again and repeat).
10 Curtsy side lunges to the left
10 side lunges to the right
10 side lunges to the left
Squats- While standing in a squat position we assign four different difficulty levels. 1 being legs slightly bent and 4 being legs bent to the point your thighs are parallel with the ground (always keep in mind to NOT let your knees pass over the point of your toes).
10 Squats to level 1
10 Squats to level 2
10 Squats to level 3
10 Squats to level 4

Abs-
30 Second plank
30 second reverse plank
Crunches for 1 minute
Reverse crunches for 1 minute
Full sit ups with legs straight for 1 minute
Always finish with 10 V sit ups.

Our Step workout consisted of the following combinations:

Knee Repeater 8
Knees around the world 16
2 Reverse V-Steps 8

2 Side Steps 8
Chug Kick 8
Over the Top 8
Knee Walk 8

Turn Step 4
Over the Top 4
Corner Knee 4
Over the Top 4
Repeat

Well there you have it. A sample of what I teach every week! Try it out you won't be disappointed and for your viewing pleasure:

P.S. I think the girl who took this picture photo shopped my butt. I can't decide if that would be a good thing or a bad thing. haha

Final Grades!

I have finally gotten my final grades for this semester and I was glad to see the grades I earned. My friend Kendra posted her grades on her blog cause she was proud so of course I have to strut my stuff as well. : )

That's right- a GPA of 3.71! Sorry to toot my own horn but I'm not making you read my blog.

And I'm not going to lie I am proud of myself. This semester I took 16 credit hours on top of just having a baby, having a two year old, and teaching fitness classes. Not to mention my calling and being the best wife in the world.

Next semester I'll start the teaching program and I think I'll walk in May because I need only one more class to complete my major but I won't finish the teaching program until December of 2011.

Have a good day!
