"Hello hoopers! I am trying to organize a group to be in the 4th of July parade in Highlands Ranch. I will do it by myself if I have to, but it would be so much more fun if you join me! Let me know if you're interested."

I'm a foster parent!

Posted on July 26, 2010 at 3:44pm 4 Comments

Woo Hoo! Just had to come here and tell you guys since I've blogged about it in the past. We finally got our first foster kid. He arrived on Friday and he's just a JOY! He's six years old and has red hair. He's very well mannered even though he has been through so much! And of course he has his own hula hoop and loves to spin with me. The first trick I showed him was the chest roll and he said, "Dang girl! You're good at the hula hoop!" So cute!

It's Maja!

It's been so long since I've blogged. So many things have happened so I guess I will just get to the point! Since my last blog I have been going through foster parent training! We are almost done and could be potentially be placed any day now! I am so dang excited! I'm blogging about it at www.readytofoster.blogspot.com if anyone wants a peek into my journey thus far.

Yesterday I ordered 4…

 

On the HoopPath

Posted on January 24, 2010 at 5:12pm 5 Comments

Last weekend was nothing short of blissed out hoopmania. I got to learn from the amazing Baxter of HoopPath and his special guest teacher Brecken. This would have been happiness enough, but then I got to stay in the same house as them and actually get to know them a little. Ride in the backseat and listen to them talk to eachother about hooping while I tried not to be star struck. I remember when Danielle picked me up from the bus stop and en route to…  

Hoop Happenings

It's been awhile. I will be short and to the point about the most hooptastic things that have happened recently. On Christmas Eve I got an email from the Jay Leno Show asking permission to play this video on the show:



Of course I said yes. But I haven't heard anything back. Lately I haven't been hooping alot. IT's cold and snowy outside. Many of my weekly hoop classes were canceled due to no one showing up. Dragging the coffee table around in the living room is a…  

One Year in the Hoop-isphere!

Posted on August 31, 2009 at 6:00pm 1 Comment

Isn't it fun to add "hoop" to different words to make hoop-anguage? Okay that was a stretch but you know what I mean. Which of you hasn't said Hoop-tastic!... or Hoop to see you later!???? Admit it! So dorky ...but so fun.

I just made a successful video hoop-casing (ha ha ha, okay I'll stop) showcasing most of the moves I've learned in my one year of hooping. There's a lot of pressure when you are trying to post a "look how far I've come" video.…

Well, I guess we're gonna have to be the ones yelling at the gross people who decide to wear fur since other people are too "polite" to say anything. Haha, I think if someone who wears fur gets enough dirty looks and bad responses, maybe they'll stop wearing fur!!

Boann is not my real name, though if I ever have a daughter it's on the list of possibilities. With everything that can happen on the net I feel safer using a handle. It also lets people know that I'm eccentric and quirky, it also announces my love of Celtic myth and legend. Thank you for asking :-D
