Fitness Team

My kids asked if we could do FITNESS TEAMS during spring break.

Of course! ( I love it when it is their idea!)

If you would like to know how to start fitness teams of your own click {here}

To read a funny past fitness team story- how I trick my kids into drinking water and exercising click {here}.

So our teams are MAD SKILLS- son 1, son 2 and ME! yippee-vs- The SHARKS- son 3, dad , and grandma who is visiting.

Well keep track of our points all week and then next Monday- the winning team gets to pick our dessert for our family night.

Already- I've had one glass of water (1pt)

son 1 is outside roller blading for points,

son three is "playing tennis" against himself ( hitting a ball against our garage door- points for his team)

and grandma is lacing up her shoes to go for a walk

and it isn't quite 9 in the morning!

Spring Break

Loving Spring Break- just on a side note

The kids are playing outside like it was 1955!

Fun games like: Cops and Robbers, Forts in the back field, they wanted to "camp out" last night in the back field of the townhouses... but I dragged them in at 10:30. ( I was a party poop er.) I just can't sleep if my babies aren't safely sleeping in our house- or at a sleep over.

It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO windy last night

I figured they wouldn't get any sleep

I wouldn't get any sleep

and then
TODAY we would all be grumpy.

So
I pulled them in.
They are still sleeping-

(this is an old picture... obviously..)

Wordless Wednesday

Shirt says: Here comes Trouble..

My Sons First 100 words

My kindergartner came home with a list of 100 words he could read. The first 10... I couldn't even pronounce! I thought- what in the world?
Eufirate
Kalaua
Kaohelelani
Palepoi
Treshani...
THEN I saw his name among these words.. and realized these were names of students in his class.

I once joked to my husband that Polynesian names are so much more familiar to our children then names we grew up with... when our kids go back to the mainland they are going to say Caleb?? What kind of name is THAT?
Frank?
What a strange name?
