The Girl Can Jump!

Maddy has what I call --Mad Jumping Skills!

I'm sure she inherited her athletic abilities from me! 

HA --- kidding!

No one would ever describe me as athletic!

My favorite jumping sport when I was young, 

was jumping jacks and the pogo stick -- those count, right???

She and I went out the other day to attempt to get 

some photos for our Christmas card.

Although she likes to have family photos for Christmas and

prefers someone besides me to take the photos,

not gonna happen this year since

you know who (moi) is

STILL sporting a black eye. :(

Although the weather did not feel like

it was time for Christmas photos

since it was 84 and humid, 

we pretended!

I'm not sure any of the jumping photos

will make it to the final Christmas card,

but I love seeing them.

And . . . doing jumps like those in

skinny, skinny jeans and boots is not easy, 

so she did a  shorter jump as I kept cutting off

her pretty little head!

Ooops -- photo errors happen!

Now, let's everybody --

Jump for Joy!

Landing!
