Pilates in May

What a great Pilates class. If you weren't able to make it, you have FIVE more chances. My friend Julie has agreed to come teach Pilates through the month of May. We would love to continue this longer but she is going to have a baby so we'll have to work something out after the summer. We are still working out the details, but are thinking either Wednesday or Thursday morning at 9:30. Cost would be $25.oo for the month. That's only $5 a class and you don't have to worry about child care because you can bring your kids. I want to get a count as to how many would like to participate. You can also invite friends and neighbors to join us. Please email me or leave a comment with your thoughts.

Zoo Today!

I forgot to update this post and I don't think an email went out this week. We are heading out to the zoo. The plan is go get there at 10am. Meet at the penguins. Call Leslie's cell phone if you're running late and want to meet up.
