I'm feeling much better today. =) And it sounds like you had quite the success when you trapezed, yourself!!! Would you do it again?!?!?<br /><br />I had such a great time at the parade on Saturday - we'll definitely plan on doing it again next year! And yes, let's talk sometime about my meatlessness a few times a week (I would do it more than that, but Adam is quite carnivorous which makes it tougher.)emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-50385798340806674492013-06-03T12:50:26.181-05:002013-06-03T12:50:26.181-05:00Thanks so much, Amy!

And the nice thing about photos is that they only capture a moment in time so you can't quite tell that I WAS shaking in my boots. ;) And yes, love the word play on plunges versus leaps. =Demmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-41640617041281074952013-06-03T12:41:09.572-05:002013-06-03T12:41:09.572-05:00Erin, you are such a natural when it comes to trap...Erin, you are such a natural when it comes to trapeze.

I say... success! :)<br /><br />It is interesting how it's mostly about timing (at least, with what they let the first timers do!). I wonder how much strength comes in to play as you try harder moves. <br /><br />Thanks so much for coming to the parade! :) You should tell me more about going meatless a few times a week!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03201592937889358953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-70293859702546019652013-06-03T08:36:39.881-05:002013-06-03T08:36:39.881-05:00Emily, you are awesome!

Even if you don't ever do it again, good on you for getting out there and taking the plunge - or should I say leap?

I think you would enjoy it!<br /><br />The trapeze class is definitely not for the faint of heart! What is funny, though, was that they said that most of the trapeze class staff were those that tried trapeze for the first time, got hooked (literally and figuratively), and never left! I have a lot of work to do before I get to that point, though, LOL.emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-73809902552586358042013-06-02T13:25:45.151-05:002013-06-02T13:25:45.151-05:00The veggie fest looks fun! like you, not a vegetar...The veggie fest looks fun! like you, not a vegetarian, but I don't focus my meals around having meat anymore and am content without meat for most of my meals.<br /><br />And those trapeze photos look like a blast! I always see the signs, but have never seen it. If your career as a runner doesn't pan out, you can always start a traveling trapeze act!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15169678747506683909noreply@blogger.com
