I just have to share .LAST weekend My family and myself went out to eat . after out in the parking lot there was a nice patch of grass . Anyhow we dont have grass in our yard ... the little kids were doing summer sults .anyway My 17 year old told me to bust out some cart wheels/ and round offs SO I Did !!! And many of them also walked all over on my hands .I even did it good . I so love those round offs .I did it like an old pro ... I'm 43 and surprised myself !!! My kids and hubby are still bragging about it LOL Thanks to CATHE Oh I felt so young !!! FUN FUN :D :D :D
 
YAY!!! I love doing cartwheels and round-offs! Me and DD do them all the time at my sister's place - she has a huge backyard:)

Isn't life so grand?
 
>Isn't life so grand?


Absolutely! This kind of thing is what makes life so much fun! Sometimes when DH and I go to the park I will just turn a cartwheel for the heck of it. He'll see me and keep asking me to "do another one!" It is so funny!
 
Those were the only "gymnastic" type things I could do as a kid, and at 45 I still can. We are so old after all! It is really fun too.
 
My DD is a competitive gymnast and has me doing backhandsprings again! My DH keeps telling me not to kill myself !LOL!
 
That is so awesome!!! Round-offs were/are the greatest. The last time I tried a cartwheel I didn't feel so good... :) I take medication now to lower my blood pressure (which I don't need, but that's another story) so I get lightheaded if I stand up too fast or anything like that. Cartwheels and round-offs are on hold for me these days!!

I love it. They SHOULD be bragging!! Isn't it great to have a supportive family?
 
How fun!

It is fun to pull out the old moves from when we were kids. I was trying to teach my niece how to do a cartwheel and I just whipped that baby out like I've never stopped doing them! I was a terrible teacher though, I could not get her to do it! Oh well!
 
I love doing cartwheels, but am not so great at roundoffs.

I love surprising people by spontaneously doing a split, but, like a moron, I injured myself the last time I did it. It was fun while it lasted, though, and this injury will heal eventually (I hope!)
 
luvmylbb, backhandsprings again?? Susan, splits? The last time my body could do such things I was a fetus... maybe an embryo. :) I am not worthy to be among you. ;) I did cartwheels with my DD one day, I hurt in new places. The good hurt.
