It’s the most busiest time of the year!!

Wow, I can’t seem to catch a breath this time of year. The holiday season is bustling with fun things to do and our “normal” daily lives aren’t letting up on us at all. I figured I’d better make time to update though since I got strict orders from Nana while she is away. So…Here it goes!

Saturday night we went to Flat Iron Farms in St. Mary’s county and had a great time seeing the animals, lights, old memorabilia and roasting marshmallows:)

Sunday evening we decided to go to National Harbor to see the tree and the fountain show in the Gaylord. It is something that the kids ask for every year. They are quite spoiled and sound so funny asking to go to National Harbor. Most 5 and 7 year olds don’t even know what National Harbor is! :)

And then of course we enjoyed the indoor snow along with hot chocolate and a cookie:)

Whew…Not done yet!!! Last Friday both boys belt tested for their green belts and did an awesome job!!! At Monday’s class we got them all set up with their sparring gear. Lance will spar for the first time tomorrow and Ryan will on Thursday. They are so excited. When we got home we suited them up and they immediately went at it with each other!!! Don’t pay for UFC anymore…just come over to our house:)

Wow, that sparring gear is cute! Can't wait to hear how they do. Hopefully Ryan doesn't knock Lance out when he gets mad over something, lol.
