The Three Caballeros

The Three Caballeros are out of the gate…

Wrong Way Jones

Big Daddy takes the lead, the Middle Man is second and Wrong-way Jones is… going the wrong way!

Racing to the Finish

Hopping to the finish line…Big Daddy is still in the lead!

Big Daddy Over the Wall

And the winner is…Big Daddy! And he’s going over the wall and into the stands to meet his fans!

Tune in next week for another exciting night at the races -if we can find some more toads!

;)


Blessings,

Denese

Hillbilly jump rope

After going through 10 or 15 jump ropes from the store -that tore up within two weeks- Abby made one from one of Lacy’s tow ropes. (This one has lasted a year.)

Time for P.E. –jumping rope!

Jumping Double

Jumping rope is not just for children, either. (Who do you think taught them how to do it?)

It is an excellent cardiovascular exercise that also improves agility, coordination and endurance.

Plus, you can do it indoors or out and it doesn’t cost a lot of money.

If you’ve never jumped rope before, check out The Jump Rope Institute for some tips.

Blessings and happy jumping,

Denese
