OMG
I have had more weddings, graduations, and retirements in the last month and the month coming up than I have in a LONG time.
It is CRAZY.
And you know that feeling when you get a wedding invitation, and you realize that you are going to see people that you haven’t seen in a long time?
And they all know that you are in fitness…
And they all know you had a rocking ass back in the day…
Yeah, well that just happened.
This past weekend I traveled with my family to Wichita, Kansas.
One of my life friend's (Melissa) second oldest was getting married.
The wedding was a small intimate get together in the bride's parents' back yard.
And by the way, this was my second back yard wedding in the last 2 weeks, and I think these are my new fave!
They are small, joyful, and so authentic.
(I wonder if I could talk my kids into a backyard wedding?!)
The wedding was small and intimate, and I had so many GREAT conversations with dear family friends (whom I haven’t seen in too long!) and new friends just coming into the family.
At one particular moment, as I finished one conversation, I began to overhear my husband's conversation.
The woman speaking to him asked, "What does your wife do?! She has awesome legs!"
And no, I'm not making that up!
Of course, this quickly caught my attention, and I whipped around to see who has giving me the awesome compliment.
As I joined the conversation, the woman then asked me, "How do you get legs and your butt to look like that?!"
And of course me, being so super smart, I shared with her my 3 favorite butt-toning exercises.
And in reminiscing about our favroite parts of the trip with my family, this memory popped back up.
SO, I wanted to share them with YOU!
In the video above and text below, I will show you my three favorite butt (and leg) exercises that you can do too to have an awesome butt.
