Family talent in sport was minimal with few vintage images existing. They improved with my daughter joining her school gym club team and winning the regional cup.
Grand-daughter
followed in her footsteps, liking nothing better to run, jump. climb
somersault, and vault etc. from an early age, and later sampled gymnastics, cross country, basketball and rugby, with her favourite horse riding. She doesn't need to go
to any exercise class to keep fit and proud parents and grandparents are pleased to be the spectators.

A classic case where the Christmas box is more fun than the toy.

to share their family history through photograph
Super finds of photos showing the athletic skills of your family members! I didn't even think to go that route, duh! I have one family with lots of athletes, another with none but geeks who love their technological toys. Gotta love them all, but it's harder to get photos of those playing games on screens!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! A nice twist on Alan's challenging theme. Too bad you don't have a family snap from Australia to add a "down under" photo too.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had been as fearless as my own kids were about athletic antics. Yours, too. I did do cartwheels, but that was it. And I could never climb a 'wall' like that. Gang busters!
