For the next five weeks we have Sensei Saunders as our instructor and today we had sparring in both my class and Eva’s class. I enjoy sparring but I need so much work at it. I tend to do the same thing over and over so have to learn to vary my techniques.
In the afternoon I took Eva to her class and at the last five minutes they sparred, too. Eva did really well. I wanted to snap a picture of her actually sparring but only managed to catch her as she was finishing up. Sparring can be very tiring and Eva did several rounds with various kids. She’s got great form and is doing a great job.
Today was Allison’s birthday. We celebrated a couple of ways. Allison had a 2 hour delay this morning so I took the kids to school and then took Allison to Cafe Locale for breakfast. We laughed because we’d be going right back to the same strip mall for dinner that night for Allison’s birthday dinner. Breakfast was nice and when it was done Allison went to school and I went home.
There was so much water everywhere and it was the most apparent when I took andy to go climbing. I had to find a way around our normal route to get Andy to Rock Spot. Luckily Rock Spot is up on a hill and it did not get flooded. Below them, however was a road that looked like a pond. I saw some cars and trucks drive through it but I was not gonna chance it.
When we got home from climbing we all went to Blue Moon for dinner. Blue Moon is a Thai restaurant that we enjoy very much. We had a bunch of great items to enjoy. We also had some leftovers to bring home and enjoy over the next few days. Allison and I will be going to see comedian Drew Lynch at Foxwoods in april. I’m looking forward to that adventure.
