Birthday treats, toolboxes & Karate

Savannah's b-day is next week.  Since they kids have no school tomorrow, and next week is Spring break,
today is the day Savannah gets to bring in treats for her birthday.  She's having a Rainbow party this year,
so I kept with that theme for the treats I made.

I got this adorable idea HERE

I had all the stuff to make these too, so figured what's a little more sugar?



Yesterday at Scouts we made toolboxes.  Trevor did  a great job!  He was the first one done, and was the only one who did not need any help.  All those times we've gone to Lowes for their Bulid and Grow activity have paid off.  And the fact that he helps his Dad build stuff a lot too.



Last night in Karate they were calling Griffin the Fighting Machine.  They've been doing a lot of sparring the last few classes.  Griffin is fast, and does not stop kicking, and punching.  Even with the girls he showed no mercey.  They would pull him off and tell they kid they were fighting to block him, cause he's a fighting machine.  At the end of class the instructor told Griffin to keep his gear on.  He told all of the student "see Griffin, he's a fighting machine, he has only been in class for like a month, but he's good, and real fast."  He also explained that you need to kick to block someone like Griffin.  So, Griffin sparred with the instructor to show the kids how to do it better.  They boys are loving karate.  Trevor is really good at it too.
