Double Dutch Anyone???

Tonight we went to Dale and Elizabeth's house for Samantha's birthday party. They pulled out the jump ropes and we all went back in time. Shane and I rocked the jump ropes! All we needed was some good old school music and we were set. I loved this activity as a child and I still love it. My mom even tried and did really well. I do own a couple long ropes myself so if you are up for some double dutch fun, give me a call.


Shane and I duel jumping. We tried several different moves: turning around, jumping one footed, alternating feet, shaking hands, etc. I wanted to do "Say Say my Playmate", but Shane kept crying about not knowing how to do it. It was definitely a good time.

It was definitely a fun time. I know next time I will be able to sustain a jump. I don't know if I ever did double dutch in school....likely I was playing tetherball!

That was way fun! I'm not quite coordinated enough to do it yet, but I'll be practicing for next time! I was surprised how good Shane was!

Don't worry. Next Sunday I'll have my ropes and we will do some jumping. Will you guys be at mom's or brezoff's?
