Crazy Boy

Lawson Takes the Plunge

I didn't let the cold temperature keep me from taking a dip in our new pool!  Mommy and Daddy thought I was crazy, but I insisted on it!  I couldn't wait any longer!  Mommy foresees several Polar Plunges in my future!  

Happy Birthday, Christopher!

Birthday Boy

Paintball target shooting!  (Mommy is realizing she is losing her battle with hunting!)

The Runge Boys

We made a quick trip to Houston for Christopher's birthday party!  Can you guess what the theme was?

Wrestlemania

Mr. Heath and Tripp came over for dinner and it turned into Wrestlemania!  Mr. Heath is one strong guy!  He lifted me SO high!!!  We had a blast!!!!!!!  I think the Big Boys had just as much fun!

Pillow Fight!

Everyone loves a good pillow fight!

Get him girls!

Can you spot Sam?!?!?!?!

Daddy making his yummy grilled banana surprise!  Could this be why we were so hyper?

Miss Emily, Mia, Morgan and Sam stayed with us over the long weekend!  We had so much fun looking for Pirate booty, playing hide and seek and going on cart rides! 

Mommy's Inspiration

"We retire too early and we die too young, our prime of life should be in the 70’s and old age should not come until we are almost 100. " Joseph Pilates

Mommy here and I promise this is not turning into a Fletcher Pilates Blog!  I just have to share a photo of an amazing woman that truly inspires me.  Joyce Knapick is a retired ballet dancer and master teacher.  She was accepted into the Fletcher Pilates Program of Study at the age of 70, which is where our paths crossed.  Upon learning her background, I immediately figured she would find me annoying, since I have absolutely no dance training.  I assumed I sealed the deal on our first "Exploration of Movement" lab.  Joyce was gracefully dancing around the room and there I was with giggles and robotic moves!  I am sure my excessive talking bothers her at times, but she has become a great mentor and inspiration.  We have been working out 3-5 hours a day, 6 days a week.  When I think that I can't possibly move anymore, I look at Joyce moving right there with us.  At 70!!!!  That is why I LOVE Pilates and what is stands for!  MIND, BODY and SPIRIT all working together!  Age is just a number.  I am constantly amazed and grateful at the people God puts in my path...I can only hope some day I will be a 70-year-young woman, in my prime, on the Cadillac and  thinking about my friend from the Fletcher Program of Study.  

Mommy and her Pilate Bug

Mommy apologizes for slacking on my blog.  She began the Fletcher Pilates Program of Study back in August and has been super busy recently.  When she isn't at the studio, she has her nose in an Anatomy or movement book.  Please say a prayer that she does well on her Midterm in February!  Daddy and I are her biggest cheerleaders!
