Breakin' J



Last weekend our church held a talent show that the kids could participate in. When I asked Jace what he wanted to do for the show, he immediately replied, "Breakdance."

I was a bit shocked, but when I watch So You Think You Can Dance, I'll let him see any dances that are appropriate the next day, and he's gotten pretty good at hand stands, spins and jumps. It's fun to watch. Emma Standifird said she wanted to break dance too, so last Saturday, the two of them did a breakdance number for the church talent show, and they were a hit. Right before he went on, he told me, "I don't know if I can do this; I think I have stage fright," but he went out anyway and had a great time doing a little freestyle.

I was laughing so hard on the side I could hardly see, but they were so cute. Wish I'd taken a video.

(I posted Parker's first soccer game a few posts back, there are some great pics of Parker and Olivia)

I think our boys would be real good friends. They love breakdancing and soccer (the older boys at least).

The breakdancing was awesome. I started cracking up as soon as I saw it on the email list- I knew it would be a hit. So excited for SYTYCD tonight... maybe we'll see you there!!! =)

Wow, I really think your kids idle me. Now jace wants to have the moves I do. You must have told him about our Alaska trip, and how we rocked the dance floor.
