Thanksgiving in Bancroft
During the thanksgiving weekend, I went with my boyfriends family to Bancroft were they rented a cottage. It was so beautiful there with all the different colours of the leaves. Fall has to be my favorite time of year in Canada for this reason alone! Here are some picture from our trip :)

Nature Walk
We went for a nature walk a couple weeks ago and I thought it was just beautiful! Fall has to be my favourite season with the crispness in the air to the multi-colored leaves. Here are some pictures from our walk :)
Whats your favourite season?

Ballet Beautiful Review
Hello,
So as you know I am a bridesmaid for my friend's wedding, because of this I've been trying (and failing) to workout. I have joined a local gym but found its so much work just getting there when I'm not working/planning the wedding. So I have been reading a couple of reviews on workout videos and came across 'Total Body Workout' by Ballet Beautiful. It's a ballet inspired workouts that are done by former ballerina Mary Helen Bowers. She has trained celebrities such as Maggie Gyllenhaal and also Natalie Portman for her role in Black Swan.
This DVD has 6 target workouts to choose from. I like that fact that each section isn't so long and it gives you a chance to rest in between. There is also an option to customize your workout. So in this you can pick the ones you like best and put them together. In total if you were to do all the workouts together it takes about 60 minutes.
I have just finished the doing all 6 workouts and let me tell you, it burns! I have done my share of workout DVD's and if you think this is just a ballerina workout, it won't be that hard. You are wrong! I never thought just small movements like that could workout as much! I feel like this is very targeted to specific muscle groups and the way she has it laid out you really do get a great workout. For beginners it might take a while to get use to how she's moving but you can go slow and take rests as you need them. If you like Ballet or have always wanted to try I would give this a buy!
I found this copy on Amazon and it was only about $7.00 Canadian. You can find it here. I hope this helps if you are looking to get a workout DVD that doesn't cost an arm and a leg! I will try to keep doing it 3 days a week and let you know how it's going!
Till next time,
B
