Hoola for Happiness!

About this time last year, I was outside eating lunch at a church event, and they were playing music over these big speakers.  Some girl came out with hoola hoops and started seriously jamming out to the music.  I'd never seen anything like it and was very intrigued.

Eventually, I got up the nerve to go up to her and ask her to teach me something.  I hooped with her for a bit, and she told me that she actually works with a ministry called Hoola for Happiness, which goes all around the world hoola hooping with kids and teaching them about Jesus.  (http://hoolaforhappiness.org/)  Leave it to God to come up with a ministry so completely random... and yet so awesome!  I love it.

Anyway, I decided that I needed to learn how to hoop like that so I started taking lessons with the adorable blonde in the front middle of this picture.  I have been hooked ever since!  Hooping has been theaputic for me and has given me joy over a tough year.  Still loving it a year later!
