Leap Day!

As you probably already know, I'm a long time fan of jumping pictures. I've got tons of them on my computer! In honor of this day that only happens once every four years I thought I'd share some of my favorite jumping pictures...
I also have some jumping fails! Like this one - cracking up over my face and my perfectly pointed hands.
Or this one of Elycia and I being super serious. (I also have a HILARIOUS one of Elycia and I jumping were you can see her butt, but I'm sure she wouldn't appreciate me posting that :P )
And, of course, one of my parents and I. I love my dad's squat and how my mom is on her tip toes!
Hope you're having an awesome day!
xoxo

  5. Hahahah. Awesome. I don't know which is my favorite; the one where your hair is purple and both your arms and legs are thrown back, or the third photo, where you look like a falling action star. :) Happy Leap Day! May the Leap Day gods bless you with candy and kittens.

  6. This post is full of far too much awesome for my mind to cope with. I think the 3rd photo and the solo jumping fail have got to be my favourites.

  22. haha I love to see your jumping photos! I especially like the 4th photo, your hair was super bright and pink! So lovely. <3

    And The photo with your mum and dad is precious!

    ReplyDelete
  23. this is great! i love seeing jumping pictures, but i have learned not to ever do any of my own because my fingers do all sort of weird star trek-like signs, and i make faces that can't and shouldn't ever be replicated. yeah, it's not pretty, but your pictures ARE!

    ReplyDelete
  24. This is awesome! a lovely leap year post :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. I love laughing out loud at posts! It looks like you're going into a cartwheel on the 3rd one. The 8th one is the best! xx

  33. Like everyone else has said,these are funny! xD

    ReplyDelete
  34. Ahahaha, this made my day. I need to start trying out new poses.

    ReplyDelete
  35. These are hilarious. I have great respect and hold a lot of jealousy and envy for people that can jump. I have had two knee surgeries which have left me far from nimble! I feel like this little old lady that should be hunched over with a cane and saying things like "deary". I am also envious of your plugs! What size are you at? I unfortunately had to stop stretching at 22mm because I'm super scared if I go any larger I might get a tear in my right lobe because it's getting way too thin for my liking. My goal was a minimum of 26mm...we'll see I don't know if I have the guts to chance going larger. Happy leaping day!

  39. For some reason, it's never occurred to me to take a jumping pic! They make you look so joyful and full of life! And that magenta color was to die for!

  47. Haha, these are awesome! I love how it looks like you're taking off to fly in some of them. I always look so horrible in jumping photos... terrible faces and my hair everywhere.

    ReplyDelete

  53. Hee hee. Leap Day, jumping--I see what you did there. I love these jumping shots too. You're so funny. That one of you and Elycia reminds me of this Japanese photography site that features a daily levitation (though not ever day). It's here: http://yowayowacamera.com/
