Happy Birthday Manas

After the picnic on Saturday we all headed over to Manas', a boy in Lily's class, 4th birthday party. It was at a Tae Kwon Do studio, which I wasn't sure how that would go over with Lily, but all the kids seem to be having a great time!! It was SO cute to watch them all learn basic moves. It was a really fun and different party.

Lily in pink (we had to change after the picnic since her white shirt was covered in orange Cheetos dust) in the reflection in the mirror learning how to roll into a "Hi Ya" kick. (that is Manas in the front of the shot).


My favorite part was when they all got to take turns in little sparing matches. They looked SO cute! Lily did really well. She got paired up with an older boy who was pretty into it, but Lily held her own. She did have a slight advantage though, since her and Grandpa have foam sword fights all the time. :)

Go Lily!


Using her shield and her sword thing!
That's my girl!
They had lots of fun activities including this obstacle course. It almost made me want to sign her up for lessons -- but she has enough going on and probably doesn't need to learn how to beat people up -- she is pretty good at that already. :)

I love that she had an edge in the foam sword match since she plays with Grandpa! So cute and I, too, am surprised that she had so much fun at that party. Who'd have guessed? Also LOL that she is already pretty good at beating people up!
