Meeting the trainer

So while we were eating baked mac & cheese on our back deck (for the 4th time this week) out pops our trainer, Alicia Marie, with her 4" Gucci pumps and skin tight spandex pants. We knew we had to be getting a trainer because the nature of the show but didn't didn't who she was. We live in a small town so it did leak out that she was colored, and looked mean and tough. That is the way she appeared to us too when she first popped out told us who she was, all her credientials, and what she was going to do with us to get our family fit. She "lived" with us for the day to see what it was like to be A MOSHER. First she rode around the yard on Chris Sr. John Deere tractor and then learned a little bit about how to fix trucks. Both scenes were so funny. Imagine this buff women with Gucci heels trying to put the pedals with her heels to get the tractor moving. It was hilarious. She later revealed that it was the first time she has ever mowed a lawn on a tractor or has not even ever pushed a lawn motor in her live. I asked her if she was some kind of primadonna or something. She laughed and said, "No my dad just always mowed the lawn." They filmed her and Chris Sr. laying off the fenders with their butt cracks showing. O.K. so this is going to be a redneck MADE show. By the way she grew up right here in CT. Her parents still live here. Then she spent time with Chris Jr. going 4-wheeling in his Toyota truck and skateboarding on a half pipe. Then it was mom's turn to spend time with her. Bet you can't guess what mom did with her. That's right, we stamped a card together. We did a card that had ribbon on it that looked like a ruler with a image of a girl sitting on a couch eating. On the ground there is soda, popcorn, candy, etc. The saying on the card said "you stuffeth, you puffeth" It fit the situation. Cindy was last but not least. She spent time listening to music and reading on the couch. That night she did a scene with marshmallows all over our living room table explaining how many calories we ate as a family that day. Then they taped us outside watching her doing exercises. We then followed her in my son's beat up truck (why couldn't they film our 1 year old Dodge extended cab pickup, redneckish again) with Chris Sr. and I in the cab and Cindy, Chris, the producer and of course the most famous boxer of all Tyson. Oh, I forgot to tell you something. Tyson is going on a diet with us. He is going on a raw food, organic diet. We won't be able to call him Fat Boy after this they tell us. At the end of the night Alicia tells us, I will be back tomorrow Moshers and you'd better be ready to shop.
