Self Workout in the Park

On Saturday, my daughter Abby, my good friend Mari and I took the train into the big city.

Off we went to Chicago.

We saw the Bean

We saw it as we walked to the Self magazine
Workout in the Park in Grant Park .

We waited in line for a long time!

We did some awesome workouts.

This girl tried to kill me more than once.

The one time though, she reminded me that I liked Pilates.

We got to listen to Alison Sweeney.

She is the host of The Biggest Loser and is also on Days of our Lives.

We even got to work out with her.

Abby did a super intense workout that Mari and I passed on.

While Abby was at that workout, I got to do my very first real press interview for Shrinking Jeans. I got to interview a Self magazine rep and talk to Alison Sweeney.

I even got to have my picture taken with her.

I'll do a full story on the Shrinking Jeans site in a few weeks.

I just couldn't keep this to myself for that long.

I had the best day ever.

If you would have asked me last year, I never would have dreamed that I would be doing this now. Life is unpredictable and so exciting.

I am one lucky girl!
