Happy New Year to you! I hope you have been creating an wonderful 2014 for yourself so far.
My jumper this week is a special one, and the oldest one to date, Elisabeth is 81 years old. You will notice in the photos that her toes are not "technically" off the ground but if you ever get the chance to meet this woman, you will understand that she has immense joy in her heart and she is absolutely jumping for joy! I would also like to note that we had the most fascinating and interesting interview which I thought was recording, and was to absorbed to notice was not. So the answers here are the very short version that we redid once I realized we were not recording. Enjoy!
