This weekend MiniME competed in her first regional Martial Arts tournament, the Northeast Open. Held in Albany, we were lucky we didn't have far to travel. She was nervous watching the first few divisions compete, but ultimately, she battled her nerves and placed in both forms and breaking!
The girls were at clay camp every morning this week, so we had one more week of mornings with just the boys. Natural playground, canal locks, sprinklers, playground, and beach.
Today was Big Trucks Day. While MiniME was at black belt training, daddy took the three younger kids to see firetrucks, buses and helicopters.
Another trip to New Hampshire. Lots more swimming in the pool, and another trip to the trampoline park.
This trip we also drove up to Odiorne Point to explore the tide pools. We used to go on field trips there when I was in elementary school, and I remember loving it. It wasn't quite the same experience this time- less tide pools, more slippery and certainly not for 2 and 4 year old boys, but we found a few animals and enjoyed the rocky beach and playground.
