Jump Rope

I used to enjoy playing with a jump rope

when I was a little girl.

Yes, that's me with the big red bow!

I loved that dress!

I am well beyond my jump roping years now ~ but I sure can enjoy watching others. Like this group of young ladies called

"The Firecrackers".

"The Firecrackers are a performance jump rope team made up of talented 4th-8th graders from the Kings Local School District in Ohio. Coached by Lynn Kelley, they perform at venues across the country.

My mother sent me a link to one of their performances ~ {"thanks Mom!"}

It takes place at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. It's about eight minutes long and worth every minute!! Please check it out if you have time.
