I wish PS was in my future, but our son is going to ISU this Fall and DD is in college now and I haven't won the lottery yet, ( but I don't play, so it's not going to happen! hahahaha )

So on your next visit to Iowa, we will have to get together. Maybe Jean would want to see the beautiful sites in Iowa also. ( cornfields to the right, soybean fields to the left and in the next field soybean fields to the right and cornfields to the left! )

No, no, no. MY disgusting, saggy, wrinkly, baggy skin is the WORST EVER.

Some day we'll have to get together and compare!

I seriously doubt that Jean! My legs would be the worst! You have to remember that years ago I lost 125 pounds on WW and I have my mother's saggy genes. hahaha

Would love to get together. I have to figure out how to talk you and Lisa O. and Kath to want to come to Iowa! You could bring your pups too! We have a large 5ft high, chain link fenced in area for Jack and Gracie. They would love some company too! Now how many dogs will be visiting?

Let's see..I think Jean has 8 right now, I have 3, Kath has 1 and you have 2. That's 14 dogs! Sounds exhausting, not much of a vacation!

But eventually I will come visit you in Iowa.

That would be a lot of dogs! hahahaha Although my sister has 5 so we deal with 7 when we visit and a few years ago, we had 3.

I really do look forward to meeting you. The park that I like to walk in by Saylorville Lake has Buffalo and Elk, so I guess it 's not all corn and soybean fields. hahaha

Anyone who's longing to see corn and soybean fields can also come to visit me in beautiful west Tennessee....but they MUST LOVE DOGS because we have 8 right now!

an absolutely beautiful transormation. I could not be prouder of you Kristi.

You are in inspiration to new and experienced bandsters. I know it's never too late to get started on a good ol' fashion walking routine. Especially if I expect my thighs to shrink like yours. Thanks for showing me the path.

Congrats---so inspiring. I have done a "starting" pic and a recent one but have no idea how to get them on the website---and am not yet comfortable with having my picture out there---have a high profile job with my face connected to it. When I look as wonderful as you do--(I am 1/2 way to goal) will have to put out a set of pics.
Thanks!
