The Karate Kid

Ashton is the son of one of Tim's childhood buddies.  Every year, he has the most creative parties!  One year, it was pony rides at the AG Museum, once he had a Scooby Doo party and this year, it was Karate!  Ashton's mom made his cool cake and check out the take-out box goody bags.  So unique!

After a few group warm up exercises with Ashton's karate instructor, they worked on a few new skills. . .   leaping over foam blocks.. . .

. . . jumping over the spinning rope

. . . and balancing on a beam while trying to knock down your opponent.   Ellie-san did super well with all the activities!
For the grand finale, Ashton broke a board in two pieces with his bare hand.  His party guests were very impressed!

Abby worked on her ice cream eating skills!
