Tonight was the kids' belt ceremony at karate. With Halloween being right around the corner, they were encouraged to dress up, get their belts, play games, enjoy a potluck dinner and go Trunk or Treating in the parking lot. Can't get much better in a kid's world for a perfect evening!
The kids kids chose their costumes. Owen decided to wear his costume from last year and Chloe decided to be Winnie the Pooh. His face is on the front of her hat.
She was up and running fast after her name was called.
Chloe couldn't wait to ditch her decided camouflage belt and receive her recommended green belt.
Because now she will be a green belt, just like her brother. :)
Owen was up and running fast, too.
He was just as excited to get his decided green belt....one step closer to attaining black belt status.
So many new green belts!
Owen had fun playing games and winning black rubber bracelets (think of the ones Madonna made popular in the 80s) while Chloe just ran around talking to her friends. After most everyone had eaten from the most humongous potluck dinner ever AND the rain had let up considerably, we headed out to the parking lot for the Trunk or Treat. There were fewer than a dozen cars with decorated trunks, but the kids loved getting to do this for the first time!
When we came back inside, it was time for a costume contest. This is one of their instructors (Ms. Sykora) who was dressed up like a Tiny Tiger (3 and under kids).
This boy dressed as a sumo wrestler rocked it and won the contest. He danced around jiggling that big stomach and had everyone in stitches.
