Joanna Gainesand her daughters are quite the gymnasts!
On Wednesday, theFixer Upperstar, 43, showed off her family’s cartwheeling skills in a video posted toInstagram, featuring her and her two daughters Emmie, 11, and Ella, 14, performing stunts in a field of grass.
In the video, set to Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” Gaines and her daughters take turns cartwheeling and mastering other tricks like front and back walkovers as the sun sets behind them.
“Barefoot in the grass and busting out some old tricks tonight. I’m sure I’ll be feeling this in the morning” the mom of five writes. “Thanks girls for the coaching! ❤️”

This was the first time they’ve spoken out about some of the push-back that’s come their way, though Joanna told the outlet she’s long wanted to discuss the topic.
“Sometimes I’m like, ‘Can I just make a statement?’ " Joanna recalled, “tearing up a little” according toTHR.
“The accusations that get thrown at you, like ‘You’re a racist’ or ‘‘You don’t like people in the LGBTQ community’ — that’s the stuff that really eats my lunch, because it’s so far from who we really are,” she continued. “That’s the stuff that keeps me up.”
Chip, 46, echoed the sentiment, explaining their ethos of diversity and inclusion with their Magnolia business umbrella — including their forthcoming Magnolia Network, launching July 15.

“As an American white male, it’s hard to be perfectly diverse,” he said. “In our own company, we’ve got nearly 700 employees, and one of our biggest passions is making this group represent all people.”
“My mom is so tough, but with one look or comment, I would just see her shut down,” Joanna toldTHR. “That’s why she didn’t know how to help me when I would come home and say, ‘So-and-so called me this.’ It was also happening to her. Growing up as half-Asian, half-Caucasian, I get what that feels like to not be accepted and to not be loved. That’s the last thing I want anyone to ever feel.”
