Happy Hemingways: Ninja Board Breaking! TANG SOO!
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/ninja-board-breaking-tang-soo.html
Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Grayson got to try his hand at board breaking during his Advanced Ninja class this past Friday. He was SO excited for it and talked about it all week long. I just hoped he'd be able to succeed. He was first in line. I was worried since he didn't get to see others do it first, but they practiced on their pads. One, Two, THREE! Board broke on the first try. I think he surprised himself (wish I could have captured his face in the photo). Ms. Holly was SO proud. Way to go Grayson!

Monday, September 5, 2011. Kalahari, Sandusky - August 15-16, 2011. The kids had fun at the waterpark, but almost as much fun on this little bridge to the parking lot feeding the ducks. HA!

Happy Hemingways: When I grow up...
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/when-i-grow-up.html
Sunday, September 18, 2011. When I grow up. SO, I asked these two:. What are you going to be when you grow up? Grayson: "I'm going to be a Train Engineer on Mondays and a doctor on Wednesdays and Fridays.". Mom: "What are you going to do on Tuesdays and Thursdays? I LOVE how this guys thinks! Scarlett: "I'm going to be a Princess Doctor". I'm not too sure if she plans on becoming a princess who goes. To medical school or if she plans on becoming a doctor who specializes.

Happy Hemingways: Girl's Day - August 17, 2011
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/girls-day-august-17-2011.html
Monday, September 5, 2011. Girl's Day - August 17, 2011. I took the entire week of vacation from work, but had one free day between Kalahari and Chicago. I had some errands to run and shopping to do and the girls wanted to come too. We made a day of it at the mall. We did shop, but we also got mani-pedis and visited the puppies in the pet store. It was so fun to spend time with just my girls. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Other Bloggers we dig. A Year of Slow Cooking. Do you see what I sea? Franken...

Happy Hemingways: Amtrak to Chicago - August 18, 2011
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/amtrak-to-chicago-august-18-2011.html
Tuesday, September 6, 2011. Amtrak to Chicago - August 18, 2011. Tadj and I thought it might be fun and convenient to take a train to Chicago rather than drive in a confined car and pay top dollar to park in the city. Um, we were wrong. Our train was scheduled to leave Royal Oak at 6:25 and didn't even arrive until 6:50am. The 6 hour ride turned into 8 due to stops and speed restrictions. The ride home turned into 11 (!

Happy Hemingways: Chicago Field Museum - August 19, 2011
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/chicago-field-museum-august-19-2011.html
Wednesday, September 7, 2011. Chicago Field Museum - August 19, 2011. We got to visit SUE at the Chicago Field Museum thanks (once again) to our wonderful Detroit Science Center Pass. We DEFINITELY got our money's worth from that pass this year. This museum would have cost our family $120 in admission alone. We got in FREE! Dug for dinosaur bones. Had a puppet show. And had story time. Overall, this was a neat museum. Best of all was the free admission. I would NOT have paid the $120 to get in...Chica...

Happy Hemingways: First Teeth Cleaning
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/first-teeth-cleaning.html
Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Scarlett got her first dental check up yesterday. She waited on pins and needles in the waiting room as she watched Sofia and then Grayson get called back. She was SO antsy for her turn. The hygienist said she did perfectly and had no trouble at all. We even got a copy of her little x-rays showing her baby teeth AND adult teeth (kind creepy looking). Way to go Scarlie Moe! September 28, 2011 at 8:49 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Other Bloggers we dig. When I grow up.

Happy Hemingways: Bear Hugs
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/bear-hugs.html
Tuesday, September 27, 2011. We had our last "4th Sunday Dinner" at the Hardie house before Afton leaves for Texas. VERY sad. Afton had special presents for the kids. Grayson got a special Key that represents the key to Afton's heart, and the girls got little Cabbage Patch dolls whose names are Afton. Then Afton pulled out her big surprise. Scarlett with her red bear hug blanket. Sofia with her purple bear hug blanket. Grayson with his green bear hug blanket. Awww, you are making me cry! Fabulous. No...

Happy Hemingways: Tang SOO! Gray gets his Yellow Belt
http://happyhemingways.blogspot.com/2011/09/tang-soo-gray-gets-his-yellow-belt.html
Saturday, September 17, 2011. Gray gets his Yellow Belt. Grayson tested last week to advance and earn his Yellow belt. He will remain in his Advanced Ninja's class with Ms. Holly until he earns his Orange belt (probably another 6 mos.). This was a particularly difficult test because he had to do his first basic form. It was hard, and all the kids made mistakes, but that was ok. They will get better with more practice. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Other Bloggers we dig. A Year of Slow Cooking.

Tuesday, September 6, 2011. We ate at Ed's - Chicago - August 18, 2011. When we arrived in Chicago, I had a text from Angie telling me they were on their way to Chicago! What a surprise (the BEST kind)! Our waiter came to the table and asked "What do you jerks want? Sofia laughed hysterically. The other kids were thrown by it. Joe played right along. We all got hats. Doesn't Angie look cute? That sounds like a fun mini vacation. I live 2 and half hours from Chicago. September 7, 2011 at 5:18 PM. American...
