We probably had the busiest weekend in a very long time. I don't remember having that much to do in one week's time period, much less two & a half days. So on Friday, we had plans to meet with Matt & Kari & their twins at Qdoba. Then Brad & Valerie flew in from Mississippi and also met us there. What started out as a 6pm dinner date turned into a night-owl chat. We were there til after 9pm.
Saturday we had Gary & Tanja & Maison over for a home-cooked breakfast. Then we loaded up to go to the car show on the Virginia Beach boardwalk. Before we could leave, we got a call from Brandi who was on her way over. She got here & went with us to the car show. Afterwards, we headed to Target to get a movie and a frozen pizza. We all had run around enough for one day!
Sunday we had church at 9am. And amazingly, we got there on time. Sloane, Amber, & Jason were waiting for us when we arrived home. We loaded up. They drove our van and we drove the motorcycle. Fun fun! We went to Dunkin Donuts, Big Lots, and Cycle Gear. At Cycle Gear, as per a previous promise that Davin made Kaleo, he had to purchase him a pair of Fox racing gloves. (Davin promised that if Kaleo practiced & learned how to ride his 2-wheel bike, that he'd buy him these gloves.)Then we headed across town and went to Lynnhaven mall to look for maternity gear for Amber. Last, Fresh World.
And the funny stuff happened there! Outside was a guy trying to get people signed up for tae kwon do. He said for a $5 donation, your kid could get a free uniform, and 2 lessons. I thought... well that's wonderful! So I signed Kaleo up. The guy asked Kaleo to show him his fist and to punch this soft thing. I don't know what the thing was. It looked like a padded tennis racket. Then he showed him a wood board and ask him to punch it. Kaleo did it, and hurt his knuckles and didn't break the board so he ran into the store crying.
Davin was somehow able to talk to him about the tae kwon do. He got him very excited about getting a "costume" (the uniform) and by the time we were checking out, Kaleo was talking about trying to break the board again. But this time, he'd use the gloves we had got him at the motorcycle store. He tried on our way out, and he did break the board!!! Very exciting. He took his board with him to school on Monday to show everyone.
Such a funny kid!
Now he's on his way to his first tae kwon do lesson. He is pretty excited, especially that he gets a "costume". And he definitely has his gloves on!
