The Jumpers

Who doesn't love a good jumping picture on the beach? It's a classic! So of course we had to have a few! Now it takes several attempts to get a quality jumping shot when you have several people and an ill-timed photographer (not mentioning any names.. MOM!) ;)

So day 2 of our little adventure we made several attempts at a jumping shot in the morning. With zero good ones we set out after naps with a resolve to get a good one. On our way down to the beach we ran into an old couple that lives in the condos and they asked us if we were going down to jump on the beach some more. We kinda laughed from embarrassment and said, "Oh you saw us?" and the old man replied "Oh everybody here knows about you guys!" ha ha ha!

We were timid at first to jump again feeling like everyone in the condos was laughing at us crazy jumpers but I'm glad we did. We got some good ones!!

Terrible (Cole) Better (Shelby) Perfection (Me! haha)
Let me explain my next pose since you'll see Rob and I doing it in the rest of this post. 4 years ago when we moved to Vegas we went to Trampoline World. It's a warehouse with wall-to-wall connected trampolines.

Rob and I noticed this guy jumping one bounce per trampoline around the entire place hitting this pose every time he was in the air. We thought he was kidding until he did it for 20 minutes straight and kept making passes by the girls serious as can be. This was around the time one of the Spiderman movies came out and we think he was trying to be spiderman so we affectionately named him "Spidey". We went back a month later and good ol' spidey was there doing his same signature jump trying to impress some more girls. So of course anytime Rob and I do a jumping picture we have to do the "Spidey"

I fully committed to the cross jump and landed right on my face

What is my husband doing?!

This whole picture is pure awesomeness. From Boston's perfectly pointed-toe form to the look on Rob's face

Shelby suggested we try our hand at cartwheel pictures. I'm not sure what we were trying to accomplish with these but we failed miserably.
