YOUR FITNESS INSTRUCTOR
With a strong passion for helping individuals achieve their fitness objectives, I am a dedicated personal trainer and fitness class instructor. My approach is centered on dynamic and varied workout plans designed to prevent boredom and continuously challenge my clients. I am deeply committed to guiding people toward their fitness goals and celebrating their progress every step of the way. For me, seeing others succeed is as rewarding as my time spent with family during my favorite holiday, Thanksgiving, a time for reflection and gratitude.

Is Your Yard Hummingbird-Friendly?

Hummingbirds are an important part of our native ecosystem. Learn how you can provide hummingbirds with the habitat essentials they need to survive.

LOVED BY ADAM & TANYA CHENELL
Olive is 12 years old. Her birthday is on November 20. She has a daily treat she enjoys, which is turkey flavor Blue Buffalo Wilderness trail treats. On Christmas Day, we put Stroop Waffles in her stocking, which we only allow once a year during the holidays.
Olive is a very lovable dog. She really loves having her belly scratched when she turns on her back. This is on a daily basis. We make her a veggie bowl after dinner almost every evening, such as broccoli or brussel sprouts. She absolutely loves vegetables.
