Elliot’s Yellow Belt Presentation
Monday night martial arts training followed by Elliot’s presentation of his Yellow belt from the grading a week last Saturday.
The boys are doing really well in their training at present, with Elliot’s kicks and punches getting stronger by the week it would seem :-). Poor Oliver is having a little wobble at the moment as he is not finding it as much fun as he did a month or so ago – being in the new class is just having an impact on him – I.e. None of his old classmates are in this class and he is no longer one of the largest in the class. Hence he is having a wobble about not being able to do it 🙁 He just needs to practise more of course 🙂
Disney on Ice
Today, we went down to Sheffield’s MotorPoint Arena for the 100 years of Disney, Disney on Ice. We went with a few of Oliver’s friends from school and had some great seats with a perfect view of all the action. There was one and a half hours of skating action with some incredible dancing and story telling going on. The kids were all sat back in amazement for the majority of the show 🙂 as always we are reminded that we really should do more stuff like this – a really fun few hours…
A quick trip to Pizza Express after the show for lunch / dinner and then home to watch the Polar Express.
Christmas is beginning in the Rust household 🙂
Elliot’s Taekwondo Yellow Belt Grading
This morning was the time for Elliot’s Yellow Belt grading at Ossett Martial Arts. He has been studying hard for this one as there is LOTS to remember and be able to talk to during the grading. The grading took an hour in total and he absolutely aced it 🙂 He graded with an A 🙂
See the link below for the pattern – not all of it was captured sadly, but 95% was…
Happy Hallowe’en
The boys had a Hallowe’en party with 6 of their friends (each) with party games, trick or treating and lots of fun.
As can be seen the conservatory was the main party area, but the kids ended up simply running around the house with lots of screaming and laughter 🙂
April and Helen (two of the mums from Year 1) did LOADS to help Vicky get the party setup and rolling including the following (from Helen) tub of gunge for the kids to dip into for prizes 🙂
The kids each took a turn in sticking a paw in and rummaging for gold 🙂 But when one of the parents offered a crisp £10 note for anyone who would put their face in – clearly Simon was straight in…
Nice….
Finally, we popped the rest of the slime bucket on the front doorstep for the teenage trick or treaters that came round after 8pm – strangely enough they were less than keen to go in search of their treat 🙂 Perhaps this will be an annual plan to keep the pesky older ones from taking all the goodies leaving the youngsters with nada… 😀
