Holidays 2011

Kicking off the holiday festivities at the Grand Del Mar holiday party.

Stephie's Chinese class

What a beautiful group of children!

First time ice skating

 

I took the kids ice skating today.  I purchased a Groupon for lessons back in July, but haven't been able to find time (not because of my schedule, but theirs).  I thought I'd better get the lessons in before the Groupon expires, so instead of chopping, kicking, and howling in Taekwondo, they did some slipping and sliding on the ice for 1.5 hours.  They didn't want to leave!

Waiting for their very first ice skating lesson.

Learning the basics from Coach Jacob.

Feeling pretty comfortable on the ice after 30 minutes.

Anthony got a "caring' award

Anthony was recognized at school assembly today for showing the good character of "caring" (Side benefit: a free kid's meal at Rubio's).  He said he didn't know what he did to get it.  I think he got it for butting into everyone's business; that's what he does best at home.
